I feel like, something most people who have been some kind of trauma have felt the same in an specific part of this game.
The feeling of emptyness and also, "How can the world go on, how can the world keep spinning after I have experienced this"
I find myself thinking this too often since I live near my abuser and see him on the streets "How can he live knowing what he did? How can he look at me and not feel ashamed? how is he able to live a happy life without trouble when I still can't forget the fear I felt when it ended, a fear I still can't stop feeling anytime I think about it, why am I the only one who has to suffer for HIS actions?"
yet often the answer is... this world its putrid, in a extreme state of decomposition. And the only thing that can help us it our loved ones helping us to distract us from this fact, and try to live like nothing. To be distracted from the bad thoughts and keep pushing.
And for all my victims here, I see you. And I'm sorry. You all deserved better, no one deserved what they went thru, no matter what they say, nothing justificates what you had to go thru. No one deserves it. I'm open for venting and hearing anyone, just feel free to text me anywhere.
Hey Tyler, I'm in a very bad state right now. I am not a sex worker but I am trans too, and some of the subjects of your game hit really close.
I really, really hope that you are in a better place now. I can't help but wonder if thigs have gone just a little bit different for you, guess those are the things we'll never know.
I do not know you personally, but I think I somehow connected with you through your game's messages. It was very nice to know that I do not feel these kinds of things alone in this world, even if we're very far apart and will never meet eachother.
That said, I also loved the artstyle; personal and cute, but also very crude.
I hope you can keep growing and overcoming every difficulty in your life, you definitely helped mine.
I'll preface this by saying I am NOT the target audience. I myself am a Christian man who does not subscribe to the ideas of transgenderism, and I'm going to admit that ahead of time so it puts my comment into context. If you believe me holding those beliefs invalidates my opinion, feel free to think that. I normally avoid any video games related to the LGBT in any capacity, not only because I do not agree with the content, but because the content would do nothing for me regardless due to me being outside of that space. It's not a thing I can relate to, and this game is no different.
The reason I played this - despite the aforementioned reservations of games like this - was because I saw people arguing about it on another website. One side was apparently complaining about it due to the same beliefs as mine - but being more rude and hateful about it, which does no one any favors (though these comments were deleted, so I can't verify if they were as bad as claimed). The other side was rightfully mentioning that it was a game, and as such warranted the respect that entails regardless of your views on the content. I decided simply to play to find out what the fuss was and form my own opinion.
I can't imagine you will like my opinion, but it isn't entirely negative. The presentation wasn't anything unique or notable, but it served its purpose well and there were moments that I thought were done creatively, such as the thematic glitching out of the overworld sprite. I also will admit the phone ringing startled me after the game was silent the rest of the way, so kudos for that.
The content though.. I will say everyone's interpretations aren't going to be the same, and I don't want to personally judge you - though that is hard when the content is literally autobiographal in nature. For me, this was a very big argument against both transgenderism and sex work. The source of every issue in the narrative stems from one of the two, and unfortunately they often looped back and fed into each other. Based on what I could discern, your perception of both sex and love were warped by these things, and having a "friend" like Sally definitely didn't help. What I didn't understand was how it was said that you hated your parents, but then in the phone call she seemed caring and concerned. She obviously loves you. I do appreciate that you do try to take accountability for your actions, and don't intend to blame others for your mistakes. That's very mature, and not many people can say they do that.
From a Christian perspective, it did sting when you said that you didn't understand why God and His angels didn't come down to stop it. I've heard this line many a time, and there is an explanation for it, but I'm not going to preach to you about my faith. Just know that no matter what, you are loved. There is always someone on Earth who loves you, and there is always a God who loves you. At least, that's what I believe anyway.
I know some of my opinions probably seem callous. There's a lot of things I disagree with on a fundamental level, but mistakes were made, and judging someone for mistakes when they're actively trying to change for the better won't help. It was really brave to put a story like this out there for public viewing, I don't know if I'd have the courage to do the same. I hope whatever path you continue on, you find healing and peace. You got a Christian man to play an LGBT related game, so at least give yourself a pat on the back for that.
this is a really strange, honestly kind of evil thing to comment under someone's intense traumatic story. being a christian man doesn't mean you are allowed to be hateful, and say false compassions. reconsider what you choose to say and realize real kindness will bear sweet fruit.
If you'll reread my comment you'd notice I'm not hateful in the slightest, and actually brought up how other people were being rude and hateful instead. I don't feel hate towards anyone, and I think your use of that word - much like how I've seen it used online - diminishes it's meaning. Just because you disagree with me, doesn't mean I'm filled with hate or something. Especially when I ended my comment with genuine wishes for the creator to find healing from this trauma.
There are many valid criticisms to sex work inherently due to its origin in exploitation, which is an incredibly nuanced topic that can't be defined as entirely good nor entirely bad.
However, being trans is a quality that is fundamentally a part of a person. It's understandable to have someone dislike their parents because they don't accept a part of them. In my experience, it feels like when your parents say they love you and care about you, they love and care about the idea of you as their child. Not accepting a core part of you, I feel, is fair grounds to dislike your parents. The way I see it is they don't love the person you are, but rather the child that you aren't anymore.
So I think it's harmful to say that this game is an argument against being transgender. It's a real experience and the issues that incite the initial need to go into sex work is because transitioning is expensive and typically looked down on in society. Regardless, the idea that a game is an argument against being transgender is just like, not accurate. It is a real life story of real issues and experiences that trans people go through. Just because trans people go through problems and issues that connect to being trans, doesn't mean we should be "against" the idea of transness. It's a core part of who people are, you can't get rid of that. Framing it as a "bad" thing only hurts more people and creates desperate scenarios where people get into harmful situations that result in horrible trauma.
I played this a little while ago and I just wanted to say I hope that you are doing well after all that happened to you. Your story was so powerful and I am glad I discovered this
If anybody is looking for more information about sex work and wants to better understand the material realities of it, please read this article. I hope the dev, and each of you reading this are doing okay.
i know it’s an autobiographical piece but i hope it’s okay to say that i feel seen.
thank you so much for making this. alongside the positivity our community places around sex work it’s so incredibly important to start conversations like these and speak candidly as this does. i really hope this can bring more attention to the importance of that
I'm trans in the opposite direction, but I've had similar experiences. It's impossible to talk about, because of the shame and the feeling that it was all my fault, that I chose to do it. This game was like a mirror for me. Knowing that other people have this experience of shame and blaming themselves and still are able to accept that it was traumatizing was just so validating. I definitely cried while playing it, and wrote down some of my favorite quotes. Thank you so much for making this, and I'm sorry. I wish healing and happiness for you.
I'm compelled to write this to hopefully help, but I'm not sure if it feels condescending or redundant. I don't share an experience like the game's, just some relatively minor sexual trauma. Worried that my perspective is unhelpful as a result. But I think the potential for a positive effect makes this worth posting anyway. Sorry if this is unhelpful (and for how late this reply is).
For circumstances like the game depicts, I don't think it's accurate to view this kind of thing as a choice that someone made. Personal or impersonal, there's a lot of coercion going on which warps consent. Having the choice between dysphoric misery and a chance at change isn't much of a choice, especially if there's an influence like Sally to "softly onboard" someone, convince them that it'll be fine. Doesn't mean accountability doesn't exist, but 100% lucid decisionmaking is far from a given in a tumultuous life. Desperation and fear and exploitative systems can and do coerce, and their blame should not be placed upon oneself. Be kind to yourself.
this is a beautifully made game. i wish i could find the right words to describe how i feel about it. all i can say is that it's a game that will stick with me. when the narration asks, "how could you let that happen to someone you love?" i could feel that pain. though the themes are heavy, i would definitely recommend this game to those who are able to handle it. there is pain and trauma here, but even within you telling the story there is strength. i hope you are doing better today, even just a little bit.
I can't put into words into how real this game is, it makes you feel real, but like you just walked into something you shouldn't have. 10/10 game, I've never felt so relieved to get a good ending in my life. It's eye opening.
I'm not trans and this game showed me again how hard some of you people have it. Thanks for showing me this harsh reality. I downloaded it for free at first because I just wanted to try some games out, but I'll pay now, because this experience was very important.
I'm probably a trans girl. I can't convince myself fully but... your games hurt. Brought me experiences I didn't know I needed: negative ones. In game form they are valuable. Yes it is upsetting. And it is okay to acknowledge that. It is important to remember what happens that shouldn't.
"Whatever happens, I'm not scared. I'll learn from everyone's mistakes and make some of my own. Maybe big ones. That's okay. That's good."
I actually typed that?! HA. Of course I'm scared. Not of big things, adult me can deal with those. But I'm scared of rejection, disbelief, being wrong. But whatever. I'll figure it out in my own messy way. That's enough.
Even if you don't make more games, what you have done for me, for everyone is wonderful. You make the world maybe a bit better. So thank you. Thank you for making games.
i have little to no memory of what happened, but i do remember that i was sex trafficked from ages 10-13. i remember what happened between me and a guy named anthony. he was really painful.
i don't know what to make of it. i'm hypersexual, a stoner, and absolutely fucking ruined.
i feel like talking about this makes me an attention seeker and a liar. i can still feel their touch but i dont feel dirty. my mind and my body dont align. my body makes me feel like i wanted it but my mind is screaming no. i'm still sexually active. i'm a fucking people pleaser. i hate it.
anyway sorry about the venting afhanjmkv yeah ilya <33333333
I hope you find community in the future if you haven't already. You deserve care from good people, the world can be so vile and this game was really hard to play but I appreciate you making it.
I actually really like this game. The fact it’s based on your experience, the dialogue and the characters personalities are so disgusting. You conveyed the message pretty well. Back when I was younger, I was molested by someone who I thought I could trust. After that experience, I was groomed several times by men on the internet that I actually felt like a husk. A year ago, I couldn’t get a job and honestly thought about working as a sex worker. A constant thought in my mind at the time was “what good am I if my body is the only thing that’s attractive?” I felt like I should get on onlyfans or become a stripper. But playing this game made me realize that god, your experience is heartbreaking and I wish for others to never try this path. It breaks you up from the inside out and it does so very slowly. I hope you are doing well and you don’t have to recall this experience, that while you did survive and made it so far, it doesn’t define you. You are strong and you are loved (I know that’s like a cliche, repeated post thing, but I mean it). I wish you well 🫶🏽
Damn, I didn't expect this. I'm a straight cismale and this floored me. This world could not be further from me. Thank you for sharing this story, it couldn't have been easy but in doing so, you have opened my eyes. Your strength is something else. It was truly a beautiful but tragic game.
I'm trans too and I related heavily to the sex work experience. From seeing currency in jobs done to dissociating and then feeling empty, storing things away unable to get rid of them. I've done all of that. I am still healing.
I'm still tempted by that world. I don't want to be but being poor just makes you. I really appreciated this game for showing me I'm not alone in that feeling.
thank you for making this game, while i'm not a trans woman (trans man) i was still able to relate. reading someone talk about their experiences going through these kinds of trauma and how it affected their life made me realize some things of my own and have kinda motivated me to try to reach out.
I don't leave a lot of comments on games but I had to after finishing this game - this brought me to tears /pos
I don't really know what I could write here but I just want to also join in on thanking you for sharing your story. Many of us can relate, I hope many can find solace in the relatability, of not being alone, of being valid.
I wish you the absolute best. I wish you to keep progressing in your journey and in healing.
Thank you for sharing, if I was less traumatized I think I might have something more profound to say, but all I can come up with is that I relate heavily to your feelings about family, sex, and sexuality.
i was searching for rpgs to sate my greed of and idk how i found myself here it was a browser game so i gave a try it just has dialogues and i got bored :( it has a story or somrthing so a 5/10
this hurts to experience. in a good way, in a way that is raw and real. but it hurts. thank you for it. i'm grateful to experience it, and i am in awe at your strength for sharing. whatever that's worth.
Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you find yourself in a more stable state of mind today. I can not put my emotions into words very well, but know that this game has hit very, very close to home, and feeling heard like this in a way due to my own traumatic experience with sexuality was incredibly healing. Thank you.
I don't have much to say. Your writing is excellent, all the moreso for being so difficult to talk about. Thank you for sharing this, I hope it helped you work through some of it.
I don't cry much at stuff that touches upon trauma and the like. Not because it's not meaningful, but because i've done a lot of my own digging into my trauma. Sharing any of it is so so so incredibly hard. We did not experience the same trauma, but the shame....I understand the shame very well. I nearly teared up at the end. I don't know what to say other than that I have seen this, and I hope one day I can finally throw out what's in my own box, slowly but surely.
This was harrowing to say the least. I'm a trans woman myself, in college now. My own trauma is unrelated to yours, and yet I feel extremely seen in this. I feel a little less alone in the trauma. Thank you for making this.
Really, I read this as yet another cautionary tale about how bad college is. Lacking that and the transitioning treatments people can really save themselves thousands of micro-rapes a month.

genuinely moving. hope you know despite everything else that's happened, you've left something beautiful behind.
great game, thanks for sharing
No hate for sharing my opinion but the game looks ugly as all hell.
Trauma isn’t pretty to begin with.
you don't really get to tell other people how to feel about your shit opinions. You get hate. Keep it to yourself.
Well screw you for this pathetic comment.
your the only pathetic one here budd
Your existence is, not me.
I don’t want to see people argue on this game’s page.
Please be kind.
i love you all. please stay safe
So much love for the dev for sharing their story, more or less. I wish the happiest life for them.

anyway sorry about the venting afhanjmkv yeah ilya <33333333
i kinda understand what you are going through, its oki I'm here for you :3 ill help and chat if you want me to
...thank you for this game. I'll definitely remember it for the rest of my life. I don't know what to say other than thanks, again.
I hope you find community in the future if you haven't already. You deserve care from good people, the world can be so vile and this game was really hard to play but I appreciate you making it.

I think I have someone I need to talk to now

It takes a great deal of self-trust to share your trauma with the world like this. sending love <3
this hurts to experience. in a good way, in a way that is raw and real. but it hurts. thank you for it. i'm grateful to experience it, and i am in awe at your strength for sharing. whatever that's worth.
Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you find yourself in a more stable state of mind today. I can not put my emotions into words very well, but know that this game has hit very, very close to home, and feeling heard like this in a way due to my own traumatic experience with sexuality was incredibly healing. Thank you.
I don't have much to say. Your writing is excellent, all the moreso for being so difficult to talk about. Thank you for sharing this, I hope it helped you work through some of it.
I don't cry much at stuff that touches upon trauma and the like. Not because it's not meaningful, but because i've done a lot of my own digging into my trauma. Sharing any of it is so so so incredibly hard. We did not experience the same trauma, but the shame....I understand the shame very well. I nearly teared up at the end. I don't know what to say other than that I have seen this, and I hope one day I can finally throw out what's in my own box, slowly but surely.
This was harrowing to say the least. I'm a trans woman myself, in college now. My own trauma is unrelated to yours, and yet I feel extremely seen in this. I feel a little less alone in the trauma. Thank you for making this.
Horrifying and Beautiful, I hope to see more of your work.
Really, I read this as yet another cautionary tale about how bad college is. Lacking that and the transitioning treatments people can really save themselves thousands of micro-rapes a month.
