Lee Jung-jae, Shadow the Hedgehog and Keanu Reeves in the same color code, my 3 fav is connected in a way blown my mind 🫂

Last slide is they're connected in a way ‼️ 🏡 Lee Jung-jae is the male main lead starring in Il Mare (2000) 🏡 Keanu Reeves is the male main lead starring in the Western version of Il Mare, The Lake House (2006) 🦔 And now Shadow in Sonic Movie 3 is voiced by Keanu Reeves

Mare mare for #JJTOBER2024 theme 'cat'

[zmakesgames]

Hello,

I am making this post because as of late, I, my friends and loved ones have been harassed. Vinca @flor4zul / @iso7010 / 4Nil on Itch.io , a developer who I have spoken to in the past has been accusing me of transmisogyny and anti-blackness. She first sent me a message message in the middle of the night calling me out and telling me to rot over a scene found in my game, Mare.

Spoilers for Mare:

Trigger warning for Transphobia, Transmisogyny, use of a Transphobic slur, Bullying, Violence and attempted suicide

Document will contain text of wishing someone's death and harm to an individual.

Once more, I ask even with what I have provided here that you do not harass Vinca or her friends. While she and her friends have hurt me, I do not endorse hurting others in turn. Minor update to the document: When referring to Vinca, they/them has been changed to She/her after noticing editorial mistake

This pride month, here is a reminder to the younger queer people out there or anyone who apparently needs the refresher:

Games that depict transphobia and homophobia realistically are not bad.

Games that refuse to pull punches when dealing with triggering material are not inherently bad.

My name is Robin. I am nonbinary, 32, game dev sensitivity reader and script editor for multiple titles, but today we're talking about one dear to my heart:

Mare is an RPGMaker Horror game about trauma.

It is covered in trigger warnings and tells you each of them extensively. On the game page, when you start. And in the read me.

Horror games about trauma will depict trauma. Feels self explanatory, no?

Well, last night, someone went across my sister's social media pages, telling her to die, because she depicted transphobia in the game.

Some major spoilers, but they'll be brief.

At the climax of the game, the Pov shifts to show that the events of the game transpired due to a suicide attempt by a transwoman named Chiyo.

In this brief gameplay segment, you have the option to interact with her PC where you can see online hate she has received, one of which is "a tranny is still a tranny".

This segment was co-written by myself and fully vetted and approved unanimously by all of us, a team composing of multiple queer and trans individuals. We are all horror fans and the realistic depiction of our struggles and the abuse we face was cathartic, but as a result, we also made it clear to not interact with the game if you could not handle heavy subject matter.

This was, ironically, the tamest version of the scene I suggested but the best one, I believe.

I should note, this scene is five hours in. After multiple child deaths, suicides, abuse, etc.

But someone came to my sister, @zmakesgames and told her she should die for including a Trans main character and portraying that they deal with transphobia.

This is not okay.

If you don’t find this type of media cathartic, that's okay, but you don't have the right to police those of use who do, especially when it's coming from an ally inspired in part by listening to the struggles of her older sibling and friends and trying to help give them a voice.

If you can not handle triggering content in your media, do not engage with media that contains those triggers, but it is never, ever acceptable to stalk or tell a dev to kill themselves because you willingly engaged with media you knew would be harmful to yourself.

If you got through this, hi, @zmakesgames is the kindest person I know and all her games are a flavor of rainbow because she is also a lesbian. Please support your queer game devs this June and all year.

Thanks.

Can we all agree that the Red Queen did the Brotherly Love-Triangle trope WAY better than the Inheritance Games

“[insert character] should have been evil!” let people be good and nice goddamn it.

It’s all: “you could have been my red queen” this and “thief/obviously” that, but WHEN are we going to talk about: “I thought of you in the end, I saw your face in the water.”????? HMMM?! When? When are we going to talk about this?

Sims having any relations in my game feels so weird after many years of not doing actual gameplay :D Maybe this is a beginning of having an actual save :>
