The Light in the Forest, by Emily worm

Description: A lesbian, haunted by an otherworldly light, tries to find people who will support her, while dealing with quite a lot, really. 

Author Statement: While much of the game deals with the impact of developmental disabilities, I didn’t want to explicitly say within the text which it was, since these experiences aren’t going to be confined to a specific diagnostic label, but I was mostly thinking of Autism or ADHD when I wrote it, as that is what I have first hand experience with.
