Problem
Online toxicity and bullying in games is very normalised, especially when it’s competitive.

Fact
The cyberbullying behaviour in gaming culture carries over to other platforms and caused 20% to youth suicide.

Insight
Health bars (HP) are one of the most important element in competitive games.

Idea
To discourage cyberbullying, consequences need to be instant. Partnering with ToxMod, an in-game feature that detects hateful comments in chat or voice chat and permanently reduces the player’s health bar (HP).
