Can you please make sure all "action" is optional? Particularly Ellie, she looks like 11 to me, it's disturbing in the worst meaning of that word.
I've made a lot of "action" optional already and I never intended to do that. The initial draft was a lot more straight forward than it is now. BM is actually just a "let's get a feel for this developing thing before I start something bigger", so I always wanted to keep it releatively simple and yet I've changed as many routes as I could change without completely rewriting the story. Now if I'd make the Ellie content optional, the story wouldn't make much sense anymore, so it'll have to stay the way it is.
Maybe I'll find a way after the game is finished and make an addon for it, but until then it'll stay how it is.
By the way my goal was always to make Ellie look cute and young, but still old enough to be adult, I've even googled 18y.o. for reference (you don't want to know how many porn popped up, it's really hard to find non-porn pictures, lol), it's part of the story, her looks is meant to trigger a certain feeling in the player (and no, not the one you got xD), she's meant to be the type of girl you'd never let get harmed in any way or by anyone.
If you don't like the style, don't play it. It's not exactly the kind of game (or web site) for prickly gentlemen or raising eyebrows at the first sight of taboo looking stuff... I love Ellie myself, and can't wait for the story to continue, is the developer even still working on it since last year ?
"looks 11 to me"
have you ever seen real people? real people do not look an age.
methinks ppl who take this attitude are comparing the characters to real life 11yo individuals they know people - a VERY disturbing trend..
these are FICTIONAL characters, DO NOT compare them to your real like sisters/daughters etc.
you sound as bad as the australian government who has now decided that any sex doll under a certain height must be a child, as if short women do not exist in real life, or as bad as patreon who has now decided that any "japanese style art" represents children, no matter the body shape etc. humans are diverse, both physically and mentally, if you have a pre-determined idea of what a "11yo" looks like, then next time you date someone whom you think "looks 20", you might just end up in jail.
dont be that pedo.
to the author, keep up the excellent work, not everyone thinks that flat chested or short adults are actually children.. some ppl know that we are not made with cookie cutters and that everyone is unique, especially Ellie, she can say more with no words than most women can with an entire conversation
as i already explained in great detail, if YOU are interpreting a fictional character which is clearly described as being an adult, as "under the age of consent", then YOU are obviously the pedo..
#NotAllWomen have E breasts, not all women are 5'5", not all women fit your personally biased opinion of what a particular age should look like, only your own imagination and sexual desires are creating that image of a FICTIONAL 'CARTOON' CHARACTER.
as with any form of art, its interpretation is in the "eye of the beholder" and all that jazz.
