Colorblindness

Post by Logitude »

One of my friends who is red-green colorblind mentioned that some of the player colors are too close.

Here are the current tokens:


And here is how this tool thinks they would roughly look (or at least how distinguishable they would be) to someone who is 80% red-green colorblind:


That definitely seems like a problem, since for 5-player matches, you want at least 6 easily-distinguishable player colors (1 extra for your own color, since that is shown in matches you're in and not in matches you're not.) As it is, color is the only thing linking the tokens on the comparative tracks to the players.

I will work on this. Any advice on how I might best go about changing the colors? Anyone here have a different variety of colorblindness that I should take into account?

Another option, which I could do as well, would be to add a symbol to the player tokens and tabs.

I tried de-saturating the pink, purple, and orange tokens. I think that improves the situation a bit, though I'm maybe not as happy with the pink color.

Thoughts, anyone?
