'Baby Steps' Is a Hiking Game That Trolls ‘Slightly Problematic’ Men

"Baby Steps" is a new walking simulator game that aims to satirize and critique the behavior of "slightly problematic" men. The game follows a 35-year-old, jobless, and privileged white male character whose pride prevents him from seeking help. The game's developer, Nighthawk Interactive, describes it as a "trolling" experience that sheds light on the entitled attitudes and reluctance to change often exhibited by such individuals. The game is set to launch on September 23 for PlayStation and Steam platforms. It promises to offer a unique interactive experience that challenges players to confront their own biases and preconceptions. By placing the player in the shoes of the protagonist, "Baby Steps" aims to foster empathy and encourage self-reflection on the part of the audience. The game's portrayal of the main character and its satirical approach have generated some discussion and controversy, but the developers remain committed to using the medium of gaming to address societal issues in a thought-provoking manner.
