STuD

To combat the lack of thorough sex education, the iOS and Android application, STuD, provides a simulation game along with an STD library and in-app store, which were designed to teach users about the importance of protected sex . STuD is a unique running game in which the user’s goal is to obtain as many points as possible, done through advancing while avoiding approaching “enemies,” or STDs, by swiping vertically. STuD’s fun and charming graphics appeal to teenagers and are at same time also serious enough for the topic at hand and for adults and businesses to take seriously.
