Sunset: a character-driven, pre-apocolyptic WIP

I enjoyed it, and will likely play the demo a few more times before a new version comes out. I kept up with most of the British-isms, but that “ballsy woman” joke is pretty obscure.

I am not a fan of how gender is introduced. If I’m a woman who doesn’t like high heels, I’ve accidentally reversed all my pronouns. Later on when you give us a choice of style for going out, it helped me see my character better; gender-via-shoes did not. So, a way to define our MC’s gender that doesn’t lock in something unintended about their image would be great.
