Description | We've Got Issues (WGI) is a game intended to open dialogues about the experience of coping with psychological disorders. WGI has been in development since Fall 2013, and is still a work in progress. We wanted to dispel two ideas: the first is that mental health is not to be taken as seriously as any other ailments. The second is that a person cannot function or live a normal life while having a psychological disorder. Psychological disorders are very real, and they fundamentally change how people live, but they can be managed. |
