I want to be absolutely clear that I don't condone doxxing or harassment, and people should be free to push boundaries in artistic endeavors.

But you only get to Bowser in 8-4 if you make several specific choices in the game, and it seems like the main draw of the game is being edgy with sexy cartoons. If it didn't want to be "the incest game" then it shouldn't really have incest in it. That's a controversial choice, and if the developer didn't know that, they didn't read or watch Game of Thrones.

Even the first episode of the game was rife with incestuous undertones. I fully support the dev in their art, but it's hard to say it's not an incest game.

People just need to grow up. Weird things happen all the time. We can't be puritanical and pretend it doesn't exist.

To be fair, judging by the fact it's either incest or people getting knives/cleavers put up against their throats, i'm going to go on a wild guess and say it doesn't paint it in a positive light. Maybe even suggests there's something wrong with them.
