Will the beginning of the game be changed? I recommended the game to my friend but she couldn't keep playing because the beginning of the game made her feel very uncomfortable. With the newer characters it's clear(er) that they're ctually into it, but the beginning with Hanna is not only very slow, it also feels like she's being sexually harrassed and violated by the clients and forced to endure it. Meanwhile later in the game you talk about how important consent is... I also felt very uncomfortable with the beginning of the game, I kept playing and it was worth it, because it gets better and the art is beautiful. To me it's obvious you made Hanna's story years ago and there's been a lot of growth and development since then, I hope you will consider making changes to the beginning of the game so it reflects your values.

Thank you for the critique! We wanted to make the first girls 'harder' to get used to the sexuality in the island, specially Hana, since she was the first one. It's important in our games for the girls to discover that sexuality by themselves and maybe Hana struggles in the beginning, but by having shame and not accepting and repressing her desires, rather than not wanting any sexual encounter at all. We will check her writing and try to make this feeling a lot clearer :)
