| 1 | * BannedInChina: The UK release was postponed indefinitely due to pressure from [[MoralGuardians members of Parliament]]; and the game was banned outright in France, Italy, and Australia. These followed [[OldMediaAreEvil an Italian magazine's]] [[NewMediaAreEvil moral-panic story]] about it, alleging that sexual contact between minors takes place in the game. Hysteria was not helped by the fact that the trailer doing the rounds at the time featured the obviously school-age Diana suggestively raising the hem-line of her dress, whilst smiling coquettishly. Add to these the European impression then that [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids/VideoGames all video games are universally for children]], and [[ThinkOfTheChildren commence the outcry]]. While those allegations are dubious at best, lesbians of the ([[CourtlyLove chaste]]) PseudoRomanticFriendship sort are a major theme, though it was likely ultimately unreleased/banned because of the adult characters doing [[HarmfulToMinors harm to minors]]. |
| 2 | * CreatorKiller: Due to the game's controversy and poor sales, developer Punchline has not released a game since. |
| 3 | * DummiedOut: A couple of costumes and recorded voice lines, indicating that the game would have had more chapters, but the developers ran out of time and money. |
| 4 | * KeepCirculatingTheTapes: One of the harder-to-find Platform/PlayStation2 games, as well as one of the more expensive, currently averages around $700. |
| 5 | * NoExportForYou: Pressure from MoralGuardians resulted in the UK release of the game being cancelled. |
| 6 | * PlayingAgainstType: Producer Yoshiro Kimura is better known for his whimsical, cartoony video game projects with Love-de-Lic, like VideoGame/MoonRemixRPGAdventure or VideoGame/{{Chulip}}. While he would later be involved in the VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes series, nothing compares to this somber, introspective horror game about female sexuality. Hearing him discuss its production on Creator/YouTube compared to Moon can be a little jarring. |
