About

Short seen in her custom made World of Warcraft wheelchair about to tell you how Ability Powered began.What’s Ability Powered all about? Well, it all started with me, Short. I live in a world where I am disabled. I get defined by what I can not do. I get spoken to differently. I get looked at differently. I share a world with people who see my disability before anything else.

I play in a world where I am seen for what I can do. I slay dragons. I rescue princesses. I smile with pride as I top a leaderboard, unlock an achievement, or move up in league play. I play in a world where people don’t see a wheelchair, they just see a gamer. They see my accomplishments. They see my abilities… not disabilities.

This is what Ability Powered was founded all about. Here you’ll find guides, tips, articles, and reviews to keep us all playing to the best of our abilities. Here your own tips are welcomed. Here we hope to build a community that enjoys gaming and supports the challenges that sometimes go with it.

Power Up. Game On.

  1. Great site! Thank you for putting this together! I was an avid Xbox fella, then ALS hit. Now I rely Tobii eyegaze for everything. I was looking for mouse only games when I ventured to your site. Do you game with eyegaze?

    • I do use Tobii! I use mostly voice commands and mouse / switches but I use Tobii eye tracking in conjunction with Iris for any game I need eyegaze on!
