DatingForward
DatingForward is an interactive choose-your-own-adventure story about a first-generation New American college student named Diarra as she navigates life on campus, balancing academic responsibilities, sexual health, alcohol & drug use, and more. Your choices along the way determine the outcome of her journey through some of the most challenging decisions faced by young adults. The project is aimed at youth ages 18 – 25 years old and consists of several videos that users can interact with depending on the decisions they make.
