  12. “It has always been my intention to donate part of the sales from ‘Max’ to a worthy charity, so have been looking around at various organizations for some time now. I originally learned of the Miriam Foundation when they contacted me about the potential of using the Pictograms I created for the game in some of their outreach. As I worked with them in adapting the Pictos I realized the charity I was looking for found me! From their staff, to all that they do, I really appreciate and support their efforts.”

  15. Max, an Autistic Journey is a retro-style RPG where the player assumes the role of Max, an imaginative ten-year-old, that has been diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Traversing Max’s home, school and wild imagination players will find ways to deal with the seemingly insurmountable challenges and frustrations of everyday life. Regardless where you fall in the spectrum of life, Max, an Autistic Journey delivers an entertaining, imaginative and informative adventure where the visualization of the beasts may be fantasy, the emotions and frustrations they represent are very real.
