I love the square movement highlight - looks so good! In general the art is the best part of it! I also like the idea of the anxiety and perhaps by playing with it you could explore social commentary of anxiety within society.

How does your game fit the theme?
[Warning: Unfinished Proof of Concept! Read more @ our page!] The game plays on the idea of losing control so strongly associated to both the myths and the facts of neurodivergent people. We're taught, told and instructed all our lives to control what is inherently ours and ultimately not controllable. If you attempt to play the game as a simple turn-based tactics game, your party members will quickly attain anxiety and suffer a panic attack. Literally, it's out of your control how much any of these would affect them. Metaphorically, it instructs you that it's not about controlling their atypical mental acuity - it's about harnessing it! Every party member is incredibly strong under their respective categories!
