Social Anxiety Simulator

Social Anxiety Simulator is meant to simulate someone who suffers from social anxiety. Put yourself in their shoes, but try to choose what you think would make them feel better about themself.

For this game, my goal was to put the player into the shoes of someone who suffers from social anxiety. I wanted to give a bit of perspective to those who are more neurotypical or those who don't understand how debilitating it can be for those who have it. I wanted to highlight the struggle and the fact that tasks that may seem easy to one individual might be very difficult for others.

The process of developing this game began with some simple playtests with friends and classmates, but the project has developed into something much more. The game, itself, was originally very sparse and had few options for going places or specific instances. It has evolved into a much more thorough game with loops, twists and turns that I believe anyone can enjoy!
