I just came here to complain about the mocking of autism. Got the game in the BLM bundle. I'm autistic and yeah, if you could not use us as a punchline, that'd be great

I feel exactly the same. I have autism and think it's pretty BS. Also, it doesn't indicate which is better graphics either. I don't get it.

Yeah. I am behavioral therapist and teach skill aquistion to autistics/ people with autism (I am writing this at work so I feel compelled to use both. I am sorry if this is wrong to anyone) and developmental delays. I got this with the BLM bundle as well. I was like "Oh! Maybe there will be something I can use here." I stopped when I realized it wanted eye contact.

Yeah this is definitely not a educational game unless you're trying to learn how to talk shit in bogan.

A reviewer, back when it was on Steam, allegedly was the parent of a child with autism who got it for them and was thanking me for the teaching material and i'm just | ಠ _◺ ಠ|

Oh no! That makes me cringe. My son is autistic and he walked in when I was testing it. When he asked what I was doing I just told him I was looking at something but it wasn't what I thought and closed my computer. We've never made a big deal about eye contact with him and I didn't want him to think anything of it. It was just the title and way it looked that threw me off. It has similar graphics/look to some other programs I have seen.
