Besides avoiding the harassers, the player has to avoid getting stuck. Friends are more of a danger than a help because they will block the player from moving, and sometimes get the player completely stuck.
Did you use a box collider on the player? Because I had trouble sneaking around corners without getting momentarily stuck. Perhaps you should consider a circle collider for the player if you didn't.
Another option would be to be able to pass through friends. It's very problematic that you see an opening to get through the enemies and win, but your friends block it.
I was able to win after a few plays, so it certainly isn't impossible, but I did avoid making any friends to make it easier to win.
Last point, I couldn't see any way to retry after losing except to end the program and restart.
Nice music, and unlike some other commenters I thought the graphics were pretty clear about what was what. I think it's just a few gameplay issues that get in the way of the message here.
Good idea and nice try though!
I also didn't find the music very appropriate. For women, walking and trying to avoid street harassment is tense, but the music made it sound like a scene in an action movie!
I like that you took a simple avoidance mechanic and tried to say something important with it. Best of luck if you continue developing this!
