Strategy, feedback, or anything SUBTERFUGE-related

  • Just a bit of info - without context, one of the usernames in the android screenshots in the Play Store could be interpreted as derogatory to people identifying as lesbian.
    I think your your character illustrations show a very inclusive attitude, so you might consider simply choosing another screenshot.
    Good luck, as ever.

    I just scanned through the screenshots, and I didn't notice anything. I'm probably just looking right past it, but, for clarity's sake, which screenshot is it? (If you don't want to repeat whatever it is, then just describe the image, I guess?)

  • I believe "flickedbean" is the phrase. Victim culture at its finest..
    (Clarifying edit: To my mind, a thinly veiled reference to masturbation has little to do with gender identity and is more likely to offend someone's puritanical nature. But then, I digress and believe this topic better served locked and submitted as an email to the devs.)

    I suppose I'm just naive, haha. I agree with toekneegee, though. This is less a matter for the forums and more for the devs.
    Edit: In any case, there's too much controversy here to make it a public matter. I know I'd like to keep the forums civil :)

  • I will forward this topic to the devs. People who wish to edit/remove their replies are free to do so. :-)

    Update - the devs are currently leaving the screenshots in place.
