This game triggers my epilepsy
I am well-medicated for my epilepsy, I have to only take one pill a day and then I don't get seizures even in "blinky" games or when watching gifs that are designed to trigger epilepsy, but with this game, it somehow manages to trigger it despite my medication, and I can't play it for more than few minutes. I don't know, maybe it's the "jumpy" soundtrack? Maybe I should try playing muted and see if I feel any better.

Let me know if playing muted helps. My son is on Kepra to help control his seizures. He had a liver transplant when he was 4 months old and spent a good part of his first 5 years in the hospital. And some of the medical issues he had made him start having seizures. They are not fun.

Yeah, I'm on Finlepsin myself. Will take a look next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Ok, just checked and the menu soundtrack is definitely part of the problem, particularly stereo bits (though I am not sure if making it mono would help as the issue seems to be related to the frequency of various "beats" in the song). Another thing are colors. A filter that would allow changing the saturation of the in-game colors (from 0% meaning grayscale, to 100% being as it is now) might help, as well as slider for brightness.

AMD allows a per-game color profile correction including saturation.

Well, I have an RTX and Intel. So this is literally useless to me.

I would assume Nvidia has the same features available.

You assume incorrectly. The best I can do is to mess with my monitor's setting, but then everything else becomes too dark/desaturated.

"In the nvidia overlay you can set filters to adjust color in-game, and they are specific to each game. I think the default keybind is alt + z in game. You can adjust digital vibrance, color temperature, and tint under the 'Color' filter." The closest solution, Nvidia GeForce Experience I think.

or global, "enter NVIDIA Control Panel. Locate "Adjust desktop color settings." From there, adjust the color corrections to your desired output. Apply, and test in-game."

Also this tool to change the settings more conveniently; https://github.com/mcgrizzz/NVCP_Toggle
