Gladiolous is a video game project created by Cindy Lieu. This project is a study about gender and sexual identity and its relationship to video games. In her research, she has found that the project is relevant for a few reasons. Firstly, it expands on current explorations in queer game studies by linking researches to fill gaps within the game studies field. In her literature research, only some works had indirectly addressed the problem of ignoring the feminine preference. There were no studies in her research that had directly addressed this issue. Two, understanding the feminine preferences will lead to more opportunities to critique and improve existing systems placed in society. She believes that video games can become important sites for women and queer politics, identity, desire.
