Challenge 2: Custom game
Since his injury, Uri has not been able to return to playing FPS (first-person shooting) games, which he really liked and competed in. Due to his injury, Uri has difficulty controlling his fingers making it difficult to play a game that requires dexterity and control of many buttons at once. The challenge is to develop a game in a style that Uri likes which is based on mastering the means that Uri controls regardless of a “normal” person to produce a game with an even playing field in terms of abilities required to let Uri compete with people fairly.
