Game made me bawl my eyes out. The storyline itself is amazing and it is so fragile, im glad i never blamed Mary Ann for anything and thought she was deeply good.

very chill game
en tant que transmasc, je peux dire que ce jeu n'est PAS destiné à moi mdr, mais aux cis het qui se disent ouverts d'esprit, mais qui arrivent à prendre au sérieux une personne trans que si elle passe au max, comme le mec principal. au passage notez qu'AUCUN mec trans ne ressemble à ça irl. la plupart des personnes trans ont L'AIR QUEER. aller bye
