Just buy this game on itch.io and avoid the whole issue.

What. Steam has been accessible for 2 years now, since they switched most of it to electron. This should be changed.

It's not possible to create an account without filling out a captcha with no audio alternative, and it's not possible to log in to steam as that part of the interface remains inaccessible. You have to do it with command line switches, that store your password insecurely. This will not be changed.

Not sure about creating an account, as I did that in 2019 and don’t remember a captcha, but about logging in, the layout of the login screen is simple. You have account name, password, and a remember me checkbox, and the login button, so all you have to do is type your username, tab, password, tab, and then press space to check the box, and then tab and enter. You can use ocr to make sure you did everything correctly. Anything after that is pretty much fully accessible. Also, the comment said that steam is completely inaccessible, which is false.

I just looked, and account signup still requires a captcha. No audio alternative, nobody to contact to bypass it. And captcha solving services can’t even detect it. If you can’t even get an account this qualifies as completely inaccessible.
