Hello there!

I searched through the Forums for a little while, and didn't see anything like this. So I thought I'd suggest it myself!

One of the things that I've heard from two different friends (whom either have color-blindness or are hard of sight,) that they simply cannot play Whack-A-Snake like I do, because of the Questing Snake's color. If you're someone with color-blindness or are hard of distinguishing colors, it can be incredibly hard to distinguish the green color of the Mamba from the green background. This is especially difficult when you can only see the tip of his nose and part of his body, (like when he hides in the corner of the right-hand side of the screen.)

This can make it difficult, or near-impossible to play Whack-A--Snake at all, making it's nice prizes basically out of reach to some people.

What I'm suggesting is to have an option underneath the Help button to change the Snake's color from the green of the Questing Snake, The red of his wife, the Karma Snake, or lastly another darker color (possibly a Black Mamba?) to help the people with R-G colorblindness to differentiate between the snake and the leaves or trunk of the trees. Another option could be a Colorblindness-mode that switched the saturation of the background vs. the Snake that could help people see the Snake better. :>

I feel that this could help a lot of people, so I thought I'd suggest it! If you have any other questions or suggestions, feel free to comment!

Thank you!

Support. not colorblind but green on green is still hard to make out. Optional black mamba colors would work nicely. the blackish color would be easier to see. Or if it really has to be realistic [black mambas aren't arboreal] at the very least the black scale patterning that is present in some of the western green mambas instead of the solid green of the eastern species would already be very helpful to make the snake more visible.



This suggestion has 183 supports and 0 NO supports.

I think maybe if they dimmed their screen that could help, but i think his is great.

@Thor --

The problem is with the color melding together (commonly making the colors Red and Green turning into a more gray or brown color) so I'm not sure that dimming the screen would help. :c Thanks for the support!

I completely support this! I don't play Wack-A-Snake often because it is too hard for me to see the snake. Especially when it's in the tree.

--I think they should have the wife in the game

Support! It's unfair to players with color blindness! Then, this would make it easier for them(or even other players that may want to change the color for whatever reason) to play and earn prizes like others do c:

@ Iceflower-- I hope this can get implimented so it can help you out! <3 They totally should, though! I'd love the addition of her in the game. :)

@ Seria -- Thank you for the support! I'm glad you agree with me. ;u;

MUST HAVE. *Not color blind but hates how the mamba looks so much like the background*

Support a billion times!

Definite support! It's such a great idea, and I can't imagine how aggravating it must be too those with colour blindness.

You have a sweet thought for your friends, I'll support. Though I don't know the effort needed for it, as usual X3

I don't have color blindness but my fiance does and I know how much trouble he has sometimes. I think this is an amazing idea!! It's unfair to people who can't see the snake. I totally support your idea. It's really nice that you did this for your friend =D
