bonjour, i love your work!! this is a little detail but i noticed all of the kitten upgrade quotes end in "..., sir". i don't exactly know how you would replace that, but as someone who doesn't identify as male it makes me a little uncomfortable to be called that, even by a cat in a cookie game

howdy! while i’ve tried to keep from using gendered language when referring to the player, the intent with kittens is that they employ “sir” in the same way that Marcie does when addressing Peppermint Patty:

however, if you’d like you can change those occurrences in upgrade flavor text by running the following bit of code in the browser console (or in a simple custom mod if playing on Steam):

for (var i in Game.Upgrades){Game.Upgrades[i].ddesc=Game.Upgrades[i].ddesc.replace(“, sir”,“, ma'am”);}

hope this works for you!

Hi, no need for a custom mod! I had the same thought and made Don’t Call Me “Sir”, which takes care of this problem for you. You can enter any title you like under Settings and the mod takes care of the rest.

kickass
