Very often, both men and women are judged based on social norms.
Yet, most people don't fall into these unrealistic traits.
These sterotypes prevent us from discovering
our true identities
LIvES is a game to discuss social norms in a simple way.
We decided to make this game exposing expectations placed on people starting from
a young age to adulthood.
We hope that this game raises awareness about how restrictive
societal norms and expectations are towards everyone.
Instructions
You will randomly be given either a boy or girl character. During the game, you will go through 3 stages; baby, teen, and adult. In each stage, you will get points for collecting sterotypicial items that corresponds with your gender. To move around, use the arrow keys.
