Understandably, this has upset many for the potential erasure of the trans community. HuniePot wrote that it’s not entirely clear how that option will be presented to players. “If not, she’ll be a natural born lady just like the rest of the cast.”

“If you’re into her as a trans girl, you’ll get the full trans Polly experience,” HuniePot writes. HuniePot announced in the same Twitter post that it would begin working on an option for players to outright change the Polly character’s birth-assigned gender to female instead of male. Again, it’s in line with the HuniePop game’s disregard for social etiquette. It can be problematic for the game developer to equate transgender individuals, who are among society’s most discriminated against groups, to the hentai futanari subgenre, where feminine-looking individuals usually possess breasts and a penis. I can’t even keep track of how many hentais I’ve seen where some chick all of a sudden breaks out a huge cock a fantasy fetish that can be enjoyable onscreen but that doesn’t necessarily translate to real life for everybody.” HuniePot I was very much under the impression that ‘girl with dick’ (whatever you want to call it) was a pretty universal interest/preference/fetish among anime/hentai/visual novel fans. “This is a character we’ve been asked for hundreds of times. “This ended up causing a very split reaction that I, honest to god, did not expect,” HuniePot, the alias of Ryan Koons, wrote in a Twitter post. HuniePot, however, claims that the response it received on Polly is “split more or less right down the middle.” To that end, HuniePot says it posted a poll, with 43 percent of respondents answering that they’d prefer a way to skip Polly while still completing the game. At worst, they mostly ignore Polly in favor of fanboying over recurring or other new characters. At best, some people seem happy to see a trans character included.

Surprisingly, the Twitter comments attached to the update video are largely positive. The first HuniePop did allow players to choose their gender, but it was a binate male or female choice with no additional context that could include transgender players. That said, there aren’t many high-profile dating simulations that allow players to pursue trans characters. The term transgender isn’t used to describe player’s identity, and it’s far from a tasteful intro-but HuniePop has certainly never aspired to be respectful of anything, including itself. You’re going to need it.” HuniePot/YouTube “So you better pack some extra lube in that carry-on. “Also, she has a dick,” the video’s narrator (the recurring lingerie fairy) says. The trans character, named Polly Bendleson, is introduced as a “traditional” persona who loves running her own makeup YouTube channel and dreams of being a housewife. HuniePot posted an update video Saturday detailing changes to existing characters and new additions to the sequel. The announcement spurred criticism from fans and non-fans alike, and the developer is now walking back on the description of the character’s gender identity. The cult-classic dating simulation let players romance and bed one of 12 buxom ladies, including an Indian yoga teacher, a Black flight attendant, and a fairy dressed in lingerie-all through the magic of match-three puzzles. The original desktop game was dumb, full of nudity, and at times offensive, but it had its momentary success and elicited enough laughs to merit some good times.ĭeveloper HuniePot recently announced that HuniePop 2, due out in 2019, would introduce a transgender character into the mix. Back in 2015, HuniePop captivated the world of YouTube Let’s Play stars, anime fans, and horny gamers alike (excuse the redundancy).
