They can't change it now, the modification comes with a statement, that Chuchel was in fact like Blackface a representation of racism against black people. It wasn't, but now it is. There is no way to revert this anymore.

Had they kept quiet and ignored the people who were feeling offended by a mere resemblence everything would be fine. Doing nothing was the best thing they could have done.

They could just say they are losing money and will do the change that it best for the company.

Go woke, get broke.

It's some kind of guilty pleasure to understand how much work was done to rebuild the game and all that was for nothing.

Thanks God, common sense have won.

if they to make him grey or something that would be less bad,
now it's not a dustbunny now it's a ball of redhead pubes

This is the saddest thing about the whole situation.

Before it was just some people getting triggered by things they made up in their head, now it's out in the open

Exactly. They chose the worst possible solution. No idea why..

Yeah. Now he looks like Donald Trump's ball-sack; eew :-/

In fact there is no problem, just insert the color selection of the character in the options, it isn't such a difficult thing to program compared to the general change of all colors in the whole game. Sure should be developed like all things. It would have been the best thing to do right from the start, the one that left me speechless is the ease with which they thought the orange solution was the right one.
The work of the developer is not so easy and you have to make important decisions otherwise your product may not start, this seems a decision taken in five minutes during the coffee break, not to say worse.
In reality due to a company market error of this kind that will drown the product and create a strong discomfort in general and economic damage of a certain importance (remember that Amanita is a small indie company not a big major with large amounts of capital available) in a company would start layoffs in bursts.
Now Amanita, at the dawn of the release of what will be their new product, is in a very bad commercial situation where no one would want to be.
