this is a really good game but I'm not going to lie the fact that i cant speed up what they were saying was a little frustrating, like omg why you talking so slow???
It was good fun though and i liked jumping around all the mushrooms and bits and i like the visuals, very bright and cool to look at :)
you talked about it in the making of talk you linked in the description but I still want to ask what was the process of coming up with the game's mechanics that portray adhd? I really liked how simple but effective it was at making its point.
Loved the game, thank U. Just curious if it was a personal motivation to share a personal story or someone close to you, and if you were french, belgian or canadian creator ?
me... starts playing... wait lets look at the comments first... oooh spoilers maybe? lets go back... starts playing. tries to pretend to ignore the fact that it says adhd, so then i can compare my life with it, gets distracted by that fact.
gets to that digit thingy, tries to press esc, pushed the button that makes the page go back. Now im writing this to say that wow. i got distracted by writing this.
didnt read this whole thing? neither did i, so i might have grammer problems.

so relatable. ouch.
the inventory joke and the "why can't you just remember this?' was relatable
I was on the verge of tears the whole tim
Incredible, all the notes - omg. Excellent little game <3
Infuriating, 10 out of 10.
The inventory gag made me feel so incredibly seen
10/10 WOULD FORGET AGAIN!
This game understands me better than the people around me. It's also my first game video, it's very special to me!! Here is a link to my game video on Bilibili →妳好！我是一隻有ADHD的小恐龍_The Tale of The ADHD Dinosaur_遊戲實況_游戏实况 (bilibili.com)
I translated it into Chinese myself.
I absolutely loved it. It's definitely a relatable and shareable game. I will play it again, it's on my to-do list.
This was so fun, really enjoyable.
5/5
I got so annoyed when it kept swapping 10/10
BRO I HAVE ADHD AND WHY IS THIS SO RELATABLE
love the game!
i would love a game where you just get those "10 more fruits" for like an hour, cause this was enjoyable and i only got 1 fruit!
The relatability in this game is unreal

That was very much intentional and part of the experience 😄
WHAT
What I liked about this game is that it really gave me a sense of resignation and lack of confidence, like "ok, what will happen this time?"
the changing locations is not 100% relatable, but my adhd is not severe (or at least I am medicated)
some of the notes things are kind of relatable though
speed-running this game is kinda fun though.
you can walk with the notes open by the way.
playing this again after over a year and its just as relatable as the first time, really nailed the adhd confusion
thanks ☺️
exactly !
yea, that's how it goes :(
Hehe Relatable

10/10 great game
There wasn't any process, I just wrote ideas down whenever, after a week or two there were enough ideas for a game
very charming little game, could relate to the dinosaur
This is way too accurate. 10/10 love it
i hate it(in a good/nice way)
XD

love how the dinosaur just wanders around when you talk to an NPC
The notes hit me soooo hard. Great game.
i was mad but also having fun, great game god job
This is so incredibly frustrating and creative! I enjoyed hating it!
i feel bad for the dino TT
So original!! cheers!
NOOO YOU CAN'T PLAY THIS ON MOBILE ETVYDTBEBXYDVFVYEVX
this game is so me 90 outta 50 snowcarrots

either way, LOVE IT
this is why i get frustrated getting multiple tasks at once
for ex, someone asks me to get them water
completely forgets they ask, and when i do fill it, i give it to the other person beside them
smh
this game literally just sums up how i feel sometimes: unorganized, bored, and overworked. a very nice experience, i give it 4.48 pineapples out of 5.
"why do you look tired, you've done practically nothing" :/
I'm not diagnosed with anything, just symptoms but either way i relate in a few ways. this game was good and lightly annoying but really fun to play
