Accessibility Notes
All text is high in contrast, but often less than 1/20th of screen height. Some dialogue has speaker indicators, but not all. While the pitch is fairly small, visual navigation indicators (ie. UI elements that indicate the location of the goal and other players) are quite small, and can be low in contrast.
Players on your team and opponents can be outlined, in different colours, and the width of this outline can be adjusted in the settings. There are full-screen flashes in the game when a goal is scored. A depth-of-field effect is applied in cutscenes.
