Creator is trans, character is trans, it's meant to mean some people didn't succeed in continuing to live after realising they're trans and committed suicide
I beat this game before I knew anything about anything, but I think I subconsciously knew the message, and overcoming all the challenges really sent me down the path I’m on now. I’ve been meaning to revisit it, but apparently I’m a mere fraction of the “gamer” I was then. It’s a tough game!

Oh yeah, that hits hard now that you're making me actually think about it. It's unsettling to think how close I was. I will forever carry those scars.

... I wasn't good enough at the game to see this, I think. Game hard.
