There is no contact, but the main character is *potentially* sexually harassed. He is asked sexual and fetishistic questions, which he complains about, but it’s unclear if he is genuinely disturbed by this.

no but there is a scene where one of the characters is "crushed" by a self closing door (I say it in quotes bc even though its played somewhat seriously and they "die" after its not graphic and just rp)
in another scene characters briefly talk what it would be like to be crushed by a hydraulic press (nothing of the sort really happens and its played as a joke)

There was a big arguement in one of the twitch chats about transphobia because on of the voice actors is transgender. The chat is blurred, thankfully, but its still something to note.

Everyone is fine at the end, but after the credits there is a scene which is very sad!

A car crashes into the wall and ends up on fire and explodes. Not graphic and it's a short scene.

One of the characters drives a car around for a scene, an npc walks in front of the car and gets deleted. It is not graphic at all.

there are plenty of scenes in which the characters are underwater and ones where they panic due to being unable to breathe but no harm ever comes directly from this.

The resonance cascade isn't a nuclear explosion, it's a sci-fi dimension opening explosion. It still may be triggering though. (Act: 1 Part: 1 at 10:00)
