So... The game project may just not work.
9 years ago
Alright, so things have been going wonky with that project of mine. I did have to drop pretty much all of my original ideas for the game, and so I came up with new ones. And it would work... if I can figure out things. I want to turn it into a vicious, hand drawn, platformer, but things have been rough even setting it up.
And there comes my small crew.
One, Stritchy, a friend of mine, has been going through serious medical problems. He can't help anymore, and was only able to add a bit to the original game before it all went to hell.
And then there's my other two; non-furs, one stritch helped me find and that guy helped me find the other. One's trying to learn pixel work and scripting, and the other one is a quite competent scripter... and where their from is my problem. They're both from Turkey, and that's one of the most homophobic countries in the world where trans women are quite literally killed by police for getting near. Hate crimes are common there too. Now, I never mentioned the fact that the main characters in both ideas were lesbians and so I have no idea what his thoughts are... but fuck me. My fourth member is a good close friend of mine who is my music maker; he doesn't know I'm trans but I'm sure he'll understand. But it seems like he's all I've got left...
Does anyone want to step up to try to help me build this game if the large portion of my teams explodes in a burst of homophobic fury? Ugh, everything always goes so, so, so wrong for me. Always, it seems...

FA+

If Turkey really is that bad, then it's not entirely their fault, not having lived in a country where tolerance is not tolerated. Still, that doesn't even come close to excusing it. Fuck 'em. If they want to be blind to the fact they have an amazing person who they could be a friend to, then it's their loss.
You are probably one of the strongest, bravest, and most awesome persons that I know. Not everyone can deal with everything that you go through.
If you ever need a friend, I'm here, and so is the rest of the Kenyota.
If I happen across any scripters, by coincidence or providence, I'll be sure to send them your way.
