These are mostly designed for a situation where someone might be overwhelmed, because that's when someone might really need to communicate, but you could put anything on a communication card! Like dinosaur facts or something • Tap and hold arrow keys to switch cards • For mobile controls, tap and hold, left side for previous card, right side for next card • You can also hover over the top of the screen to select a specific card. • Full-screen mode gives you best quality. └───────────────────────────────┘ ┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉ ⠀-Credits- Card art - me / @-Squiggle, Scratch Cat belongs to the Scratch costume library Coding - me, scripts adapted from initially following @Griffpatch's scrolling platformer tutorial Inspiration - neurodiversity acceptance, AAC Awareness Month, the lack of AAC-related projects on Scratch, cards and phrases inspired by Iinside My Head's communication cards ┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉ ⠀-Notes- feel free to remix and add your own phrases or art! you're free to use these for anything, with credit.
