wow, this game is fucked up! it makes Degrees of Lewdity look tame by comparison. pushing the boundary of the already incredibly boundary pushing jam, and the result is a harrowing synthesis of the horror, erotic and dark comedy that can only be written by those with experience. everything here is painfully real despite the comically evil premise (except Meat Grindr's titular Meat Grindr, I would hope) but the self-loathing is probably what hurt me the most. the victim is the perpetrator, the assault their own fault and responsibility, because no one in their life is available to challenge that belief, and especially not the show designed to exploit it. one of the most rigid power dynamics in all of humanity is that of an adult over a child. Sam's safe word thing really got me too, being the only "choice" you get and of course it doesn't mean anything. the only time I used it was to see what would happen and that was the time when I would have had to anyways. the contestants are bound to get raped and thrown in the grinder, but not always in that order. this is a very special game to me, but not one that I could recommend to all but one or two people I know because of the content. I really hope it doesn't breach containment and get taken down. also it feels weird to put this after all of that but idk where else to, the sketch-y and airbrushed art style is really cute. it works well juxtaposed with the cruelty of it all and the contestants becoming literal blobs of red mist.

wow, this is really good. it's funny, has a cute art style, and has so many emotional moments and a story that's very relatable at times. as someone who's also had complicated feelings of self-hatred and learning to love myself for who I am, this was really impactful to me. thank you so much for making this, it's really something special.
