I like the concept, but.... I really don't know what I could make that would be "autism friendly" besides just another game. I just don't want to take a random game idea and make it for this because I feel like there should be a more specific drive behind a game made for this.

The only thing I can think of is trying to make a game that explains autism, but that seems too preachy to me and I know I wouldn't do a good job of it because of my low experience.

Since you apparently have such low experience with Autism, I say try to make a game that shows what the view of autistic people is in the eyes of people who don't know much about it.

I feel like you misunderstood my statements. The problem is nothing in video games seems autism unfriendly, so how do I make something autism friendly when as far as I see, all games are equally so? Perhaps the issue is that I only have experience with mild autism and more severe autism makes a more noticeable difference, but what is that difference?

I see what you mean. Yes, I did misunderstand your original post. After reading your reply, I see how the idea does not really work. I do not have any other ideas to give to you, sorry. I may think of one later, in which I will tell you.
