The Get Good Project
Online coop gaming for social engagement and mental well-being
Do you ever feel like you just need to chat to someone? Or just switch off? Or just connect and engage with other people?
We know these feelings, and we are sure there are lots of other people who feel the same way. That is why we have set up The Get Good Project.
We are not quite ready yet, but our plan is to provide facilitated on-line cooperative gaming sessions. So people will be able to talk about issues, ask and share advice or just connect in a friendly, supportive, challenging and fun environment, all from the comfort of their own home.
Long term, we will be providing targeted sessions that offer opportunities for individuals of similar circumstances to connect, collaborate and share. If you are a person feeling socially isolated, there will be sessions you can join. If you are someone dealing with anxiety, trauma or other mental health concerns, there will be sessions you can join. If you are wrestling with questions of identity, sexuality, gender there will be sessions you can join. If you are a stressed out health care or emergency worker who just wants to unwind, there will be sessions you can join. If you are a frazzled parent up in the early hours wondering if you are doing things right, there will be sessions you can join. I think you get the picture.
There will also be a range of different types of games being played as well. Coop shooters, puzzle games, strategy games etc., and even if you don't game...yet...you'll be watch the action and join in the chat.
If this sounds like something that would be of interest to you, or if you think you might like to maybe be a session facilitator, check us out on Facebook. Or contact us at by email at
