Package: crack-attack Severity: wishlist Version: 1.1.14-5 Crack Attack! currently uses only colors to distinguish the different blocks. This unfortunately makes the game a lot more difficult for colorblind people.
Frozen Bubble added visual shapes inside the bubbles which can be activated by using the --colourblind flag. At first look, the change needed to add a similar feature might be pretty intrusive, since each block would need either a different texture, or a different shape (in three definitions). An alternative way would be to add the ability to configure the color set without the need for a full recompilation. For the record, here is the patch that I made which allows me to play in spite of my protanomaly. Regards, -- Jérémy
