Cats In The Box
Oh no!
The cats you have all want in the box, but you only have so much space for them! They're not big on cuddling up to one another, so try to fit as many as you can!
This little game was made for the 48hr Neurodiversity Pride Game Jam!
I mostly wanted to talk about what it feels like to know the people around you have a certain amount of tolerance for "the differences you have", but you don't... really choose the amount of cats you have total. So you kind of end up choosing what cats get in the box and spoken about, and what cats you have to set aside and hide. Some cats are bigger because they're harder to talk about for both you and those people (plus they're really fluffy). That's really it! It's very direct in what it talks about here; nothing really being hidden! lol! It's very very on the nose, partly because I was making it in like... less than 10 hours. haha :)
I just wanted to draw some cats :D

It's a very powerful message conveyed in a very accessible way. Congrats for doing that in less than 10 hours, Ned! I'm not autistic but I can relate to that too and to most (if not all) of the cats of your game. I guess being neurodivergent (me: ADHDer) means trying to show the right you at the right time, in the right place, and to the right people, when they are many yous that would like to be seen and heard by everyone, all the time, everywhere.... We're a handful for neurotypicals... and I love it ;)
Really cute way to represent the mental weight we give the functions (or lack of lmao) that we have in our brains as autistic people!!
