Problem
Visual player instructions appear at the bottom of the screen when the player receives focus. Instructions are read out by screen readers but will be extremely difficult to find for low-vision users. Low-vision users frequently only have visibility in the immediate vicinity of their current reading or focus point, so maintaining proximity of feedback is important.
Description
Move the notification so it appears in close proximity to the focus point.
