Accessibility Notes
To skip cutscenes, you need to hold down a button but this is not a required hold and nowhere else in the game are holds needed. To open the game you need to press the two triggers simultaneously.
Text, including subtitles, is all high in contrast but can be quite small.
You can always see the entire play area so navigation is generally fairly straightforward. The things on a car that need fixing are highlighted in bright orange, but sometimes this is a similar colour to the background and/or quite small, so knowing what you need to do can be challenging. Additionally, the things that don't need fixing are highlighted in red, so you need to be able to tell red and orange apart, which is important to note for colourblind players.
