About Gender Dysphoria
A short 20 minute non-linear narrative game about negative experiences after coming out as transgender.
Developer's Note: This is a rather indulgent and unforgiving game, at least for me, as it only contains negative experiences. I recommend you only consider playing this game if you have the emotional capacity for it. I hope that it can give cisgender people an idea of what being transgender is like and for those who are transgender themselves that they are not alone in their experiences and that there's someone else who has felt the pain too. But, I also made this game for myself. I've made this game the same way you might write about the painful, dark memories you have in a journal to help process it and move on.

way too short and way too little content. its cheap, but there should still be more content for something that costs anything and has basically no gameplay7 found this helpful
Haha, I know the game said we shouldn't play depending on our mental state, but I couldn’t help myself. It doesn’t help that I am also somewhat of a masochistic but, but everything hits so hard and somewhat close to home as well. I am cisgender, but I have also been considering myself as an egg for the longest time. I am not sure how to word that, but yeah. Not really sure how to express what I uh really feel, also doesn't really help, I don’t have many people to talk to about that, I digress. It does help give me an insight into the complexity of it all, just something I am not ruling out, that's all. ANYWAYS, this is a great game, always as a reminder, no matter what you do, even if you sit in a room all day, Someone is always gonna have something to say, so ♥♥♥♥ it, be free and do you Queens/ Kings, the deities, celestials, and cosmic beans :3 *Be safe and take care! Much love to you all!*3 found this helpful
the coming out experience will never be a one size fits all narrative, but this game does a good job at painting a picture of how hard it can be. I recommend.2 found this helpful
It's a good, short game and accomplishes what it set out to do Do kinda wish there was a chronologically linear version for if you already listened to the disconnected version, so 9/102 found this helpful
Short, but not expensive. Absolutely worth playing/finishing.2 found this helpful
A very beautiful exploration of the experiences of many transgender people. One of the best games I've played all year.1 found this helpful
