FrameQuest

Frame-by-frame animation creation that turns autistic preferences for precision and sequencing into creative storytelling. Players build stop-motion animations that practice social scenarios -- setting up characters, capturing frames, sequencing timelines, and narrating stories. The animation process itself builds fine motor skills, sequential thinking, and emotional understanding.
