This is a really powerful game, using its storytelling and visual themes very effectively to communicate about your trauma. I'm glad you are in a place to make this game. Thank you.

(Finishing comment, since i wrote the first part late)

I think the simple but strong visual language of this game is a perfect pairing for communicating about your trauma. It's clear what you want to say: not condemnation of SW or even of particular people (at least, not as a focus even for the john), but just an honest conversation with the viewer about your trauma. The way it intertwines with familial trauma and poverty. I can't imagine making this was easy for you, and I hope that making it and seeing it impact viewers and yourself helps you. I believe you deserve it. Again, thank you. Please be safe and be kind to yourself.

I am sorry about the delay in responding to your comment. I am an organizer on the queer games bundle so that's been my priority lately.


I didn't want to demonize the john because to be perfectly honest, he was just paying for something and getting what he agreed to. He didn't really do anything wrong it just happened he ended up with someone not mentally equipped for that. 


I didn't want to demonize or disrespect anyone or view anyone not as a person. My goal wasn't to tear anyone down but just get over my shame and this game accomplished that.


It was very hard to write and led to a longer delay between my games than usual because it hurt a lot. At the of the day though, I have a lot less shame now. I can't overstate how big of a deal it is to not to live being like "I'll die with this secret.".


I'm still really exhausted so please excuse this message if it's a bit ranty but thank you for your kind words.
