Vision Statement
Reiss Di Zom, Dave! gamifies executive dysfunction and the ADHD experience. It’s a brief, light-hearted puzzle game where you attempt to raise the motivation of titular character Dave high enough to complete the final task: writing an email.
Spielemechaniken
The core mission of the game is to manage Dave's motivation bar. Certain things like starting tasks or looking at assignments will drain it, while doing well at a task or eating a snack will boost it. Some (most?) tasks require a certain minimum of motivation to start them.
The player can move Dave by clicking on the floor to make Dave walk there. If his motivation is too low, however, the player has to pick him up (click) and carry (drag) him to spots in the room.
Some tasks will transport the player into a minigame.
