You can make different turns, take different routes, interact with people on the street, but the object of the game is to get home safe. Of course, this goal is easy to accomplish as only about 4% of rapists are strangers to the victim. However, seeing as how 1 in every 5 women in US are victims of rape, there is a real need to be careful. The main content of the game is the amount of street harassment the player with experience. About 90% of women in US admit to being street harassed (A percentage, I feel, is low compared to the actual figures). Most of the street harassment portrayed in the game will be harassment we or our friends have endured (getting followed, sexist remarks, catcalls, the good old &#8220;pretty girls should smile!\u201d, and the subsequent \u201cYou should be happy! I\u2019m complimenting you!\u201d argument). Our main goal for the game is to share personal experience through games.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/files\/2014\/11\/street-copy.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1372\" src=\"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/files\/2014\/11\/street-copy.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"3431\" height=\"1190\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/files\/2014\/11\/street-copy.png 3431w, http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/files\/2014\/11\/street-copy-300x104.png 300w, http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/files\/2014\/11\/street-copy-1024x355.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Share personal experience by using games (Mainichi) : http:\/\/femfreq.tumblr.com\/post\/53306704524\/human-angle-queer-games-the-secret-avant-garde\u00a0&#8211; \u00a0Interview with Mainichi game developer http:\/\/indiegames.com\/2012\/11\/freeware_game_pick_mainichi_ma.html\u00a0&#8211; Mainichi Game &#8211; sharing personal experience with games &#8220;How do you do it\u201d game and it\u2019s use of gaming to share a very personalized story Street Harrassment: http:\/\/www.stopstreetharassment.org\/resources\/statistics\/\u00a0&#8211; statistics on street harassment https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=b1XGPvbWn0A\u00a0&#8211; 10 hour walking in NY Summary: Our &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/2014\/11\/11\/swetha-nivetha\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Walking Home Simulator&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1367","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1367"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1367\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1377,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1367\/revisions\/1377"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1367"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1367"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/mycours.es\/gamedesign2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
