Interaction plan for the subway station scene
(In the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time)
This scene comes up on Christopher's way of finding his mother, indicating AS's sensory overload under complex and unfamiliar circumstances. The scene's color changes dramatically as the player moves, and when the player stops moving, it slowly returns to its objective appearance. With a distinctive dizzy image, the scene is dramatized artistically.

I took reference from Rudy Simone’s autobiography Aspergirls: “In the shopping mall, things are not moving, it is us moving, So the products take swirls in our minds, making us dizzy.”
I also referenced some autistic children’s paintings.
Use flowing, bold, and fluorescent colors, abandoning the actual color in a space to show the intensified discomfort of AS group because of sensory overload under strange and complex circumstances. It is an artistic method to simulate the same feelings instead of the actual physiological reaction of Asperger‘s people.
