Character Change & Better Research

Speakeasy S1E3: Firefly
A browser game made in HTML5

Hey all,

Just wanted to be as transparent as possible about a change made to one of the characters in this episode. 

Long story short is that  I failed to do proper research, and had practicing Muslim characters interacting in a bar setting. To that end, I've fixed the incorrect portrayals immediately.

And for those it might help here are some resources I used to better educate myself:

I'm so sorry for the harmful representation, and promise to do better.
