Howdy folks! 👋
We want to share something exciting with you all- We’ve received a small amount of funding* to undertake a research project into the power of wholesome gaming, and Paleo Pines in particular, on emotional and mental health, with a focus on neurodiverse/neurodivergent players! This research will be done through online surveys, both quantitative and qualitative.
We want to find out what parts of wholesome/cosy/peaceful gaming really promote relaxation, focus, and other positive emotions, and this research will help us identify which game design elements may contribute to this positive impact to inform future game development, both for Paleo Pines and the wider gaming industry.
This first survey is a short one to gather some broader information, and to collect interest in the next surveys!
Thank you all for participating, and if you have any friends or family who've played Paleo Pines (even just the demo!) and may be interested, please do share this with them! 💚🦖
Participate here: https://forms.gle/FytVnrC8oq2Ehemo9 ✨
This survey will be open until March 4th 2025 🗓
* This research is independently funded, separate from game and merchandise development.
