After the sterling success of 2005’s One Switch competition, where the aim was to make an original game or remake playable with one button (creating some excellent titles such as Sky Puppy and Strange Attractors) there's a new Retro Remakes competition for 2006. This year’s competition has the request:

"Good remakes of good games that anyone can play, regardless of their ability"

That initially sounds simple, but becomes a bit more complex when you think of varying abilities of people who play games, but you’ll have to do your best if you want you win one of the amazing prizes (there’s a total prize fund over £4000). There’s a list of games already entered and a competiton forum, including an invaluable Top Ten Accessible Features Wish List which is something all developers should be forced to read, really.
