oh wow great concep- (sees 'BL' in the header)... ah. disappointing lol, i hope the games not as homophobic as that makes it out to be
'BL' bascially translates to 'i consume yaoi and fetishize gays', REALLY bad word choice unless you only want straight homophobic girls playing. like im not even a gay man and its scaring me off just from the connotations it brings
like im not gna judge the whole game from that (and i likely will give the demo a peek) but i know a Lot of people (mainly gay guys) will be instantly put off by 'BL' being advertised
Hi sunspotty!
Thanks for clarifying why you think the game might be homophobic, I see that you're concerned about me using the term BL to describe my game.
The term BL actually stands for 'boys' love'. I assure you, there are many people (female, male, trans and more) that enjoy BL content for the stories, art and overall messages that the creators are trying to portray. Just like any other genre of entertainment out there. It is unfortunate that some people will see the tag 'BL' and feel put off by it, but I know that each person will have their own preferred genres.
If you decide not to play the game because of your preference, that is understandable. But if you do try out the demo, I hope you can see the game for what it is beyond the tag.
Hi! Random gay here to weigh in. I'm an LGBTQIA+ librarian and it is literally my day job to evaluate visual novels like this. I understand where you are coming from, as the BL genre is known to have a fetishizing problem. BUT! Not all games in the genre are like that. This game is one of those exceptions. This game does a wonderful job of giving respectful representation to multiple sexualities and romantic orientations. If you have ever played the LGBTQIA+ routes of "Backstage Pass!", this game is on about the same level. I recommend it highly and I'm sending it to some friends of lesser known sexualities, because they would eat this representation up with a spoon. I'm not saying you have to give this game a chance. But I do want you to know this is one of the good ones. :D
