This just in: I've gotten bored of designing "Welcome to Dream Valley" and "My Little Time Killer", and I realized why; I have a lot of interesting ideas that would be out of bounds of what people think a "My Little Pony" game is based on like riding horses, using guns and swords, and bounty hunting. Thing is; Those "good ideas" are very controversial even when put into practice in a non-MLP game.
Not to confirm anything, but I'm working on a project that'll involve things like killing sentient beings, and taking prisoners that you have the option to either collect for bounties or sell on the slave market... all in the name of "fun and profit" but it is not the main quest as all that is added to create a level of freedom in-game.
The current build of the game so far is fairly good and it has some of the best programming I've put into Quest, but I want to know if this is pushing it for a non-Adult game.
And this is a good question many other designers in the near future might ask; What is the limit I can go before the moderators send it off to the "Adult" section to never be seen by the public majority?

No particular rules so it's up to individual judgment. Adult category is for games that would be unsuitable for those under 18, usually because of some kind of sexual theme or content.

Okay, goodie.
It's just that I'm from the United States and I've gotten wind from some internet personalities (like the "Cinema Snob") and research on video games like the Fallout series and DooM about content restrictions in the United Kingdom and Europe in general like the mass censorship of the Manhunt series (not a fan), Fallout: New Vegas, and Grand Theft Auto.
