Hello there! Would you mind if I dropped by to ask if there is any chance that a Coulrophobia (fear/phobia of clowns) accessibility toggle can be implemented? My girlfriend was super enamored by the idea of playing Two Point Museum, but as soon as I mentioned that there are clowns in the game, she gave up immediately.


I know it sounds silly if you haven't dealt with or heard of this condition, but my girlfriend has a deadly fear of all kinds of clowns (yes, even Pietro from Animal Crossing); she got traumatized by a bad experience with a clown as a toddler (nothing horrible happened, but the interaction unfortunately left a permanent mark on her psyche). Even after having done exposure therapy (she literally went to a circus with her psychiatrist and had to leave before the show ended), nothing has worked so far.


With that said, it would be incredible if you somehow managed to find a way to have that as an option. After poking her mind about this topic for years now, we both discovered that the thing that triggers her the most is the big red nose on a clown, so I think an easy way to do it would be to simply make all clown models monochrome. It isn't a perfect fix since she is still very uneasy about the concept of clowns as a whole, but if the nose isn't red or there isn't a nose at all, she is somehow able to deal with it much better. I'm sure there are way more fun and original ways to go about this, but that seems to be the cheapest solution.


I know it's a highly unusual request, but I would be forever grateful (as well as she, I'm sure!) if you could make it happen. Either way, I had to give it a try, so thank you for listening!

If nothing else, please keep this topic in mind for your next game, since I'm sure that whatever it is, there will most likely be clowns in there somewhere haha


Much love from Portugal and Germany!
