Beautiful video, and thank you for sharing your experience! Your game will be amazing, a piece of art.

I wanted to add that in my humble opinion, you do not need to worry about how to include diversity in your game, but it is really nice that you are trying to! It shows that you care. We are all unique, beautiful human beings, and diversity is amazing. We should whole-heartedly embrace diversity and respect everyone no matter what is their background. But we have to accept that because we are all unique, we will never manage to represent all differences in one game. And we don't have to. Still, it is very considerate and positive to think about it and try to include it as long as it works well with your story. In any case it will help to make diversity the new normal. By the way, I really like your art, well done.
