Den Mi Sapatu

An Interactive Story-Based RPG that places the player in the shoes of a young man struggling between his sexual identity and cultural expectations on a small Caribbean Island. Growing up in a predominantly religious and tight-knit community you are facing the decision of living openly or living a lie, each with its own possible repercussions.

As the main character, you venture around the island map, interacting with various members of the community who aid you in ultimately making this decision. The game aims to show the pressure that a lot of young people are experiencing when growing up in small communities, and how things like cultural expectations and gossip can negatively affect their personal growth and social lives in the grand scheme of things.

*Initially presented as a live Arcade Game during an Art Exhibition themed "Public & Private", we've now uploaded the game to the interwebs for a broader audience.
