BACKGROUND
Inspired by the acclaimed comic book She Could Fly written by Christopher Cantwell (Halt and Catch Fire, Iron Man, Dr Doom) who lives with OCD and illustrated by Martín Morazzo (Ice Cream Man) the game features artwork from the comic, which is published by Berger Books (Dark Horse), helmed by the legendary comic editor Karen Berger (Vertigo/DC).
The creative team have collaborated with scientists, OCD Action and people with lived experience of OCD to inform the game design and create a global engagement campaign to shift how we think about OCD and mental health.
