Of course you're right in regards to the grammar, but I think the intent here is to make something that purposefully sounds like ménage à trois, which is recognized by most English speakers as a term for a threesome.

It would be ignorant if it was due to a lack of knowledge or awareness - but imo its just a difference in priorities: For me, porn IS the correct frame of reference on a porn board. I don't deny that you are correct about the original meaning - i just don't put as much importance on original meaning outside its original context.

But conflating futa and trans as synonymous makes confusion. It would be like labelling NTR (netorare) when the MC is cheating. Would it be a good move?
Futas are not transgenger, futas are not males with boob implants. Futas are a (fictional) category of girls that have both a vagina and a cock, but no balls, to remark the difference with queers or trans. Till some years ago this was the normality, but then started to appear trans labelled as futas and now it is becoming almost impossible to avoid trans and gay content when looking for futa girls.
That's bad labelling in my opinion.

Are this Futa able to get pregnant or not the most important question, what with there being a pregnant character at some point. I hope so, cuze that would shoot this high on my priority list.

Regarding labelling: Futa/trans is already a single tag using the f95zone forum rules definition (tag rules): "Futa/trans: A woman with both male and female genitals or just male genitals. Or a trans character." Many games use futa like the first part, i would say girl+dick with no vagina is even more prevalent in games here: e.g. a succubus casting a futa spell might completely replace her vagina with a dick (often including balls), or the dick grows from her vagina. So the hard distinction just doesn't seem to be used that much on this board. I can understand the frustration tho if one wants to filter for the original meaning and gets content that doesn't conform to that.
I will try to refrain from further derailing the thread, sorry about that sometimes i can't help it^^ Good luck with the game Alboe Interactive !

Futas arent really my thing so i dont care, its not a hill im gonna die on.Futa always has both genders, meaning a dick AND a pussy.
ALWAYS. If it's only one part it's not futa, period.
Anyways, i like playing one protag instead of playing a lottery with them, so this one i will pass on.
but i'm curious what do we call a Female who has a dick and no vag? im talking about said person always having that dick. never transitioned.
i also got curious and went to a hentai sight and quite a few doujins apply the futa tag to characters with just a Dick. so if anyone would know i would think its the japanese.
but once again at this point i'm just curious.

Wow damn I already liked the game description and future tags this is my type of game I'm already downloading...think i will wait on trying this considering the link in the OP shows previous offering was put on hold over a year ago and didn't get very far.
Ah, the incredibly lazy and frustrating 'futa is now everything' tag debate arrives once more.
Japanese term, roughly translated, it means both. It was quite the surprise to discover back in the seemingly ancient times of the Blockbuster Video when you'd chance on a copy of La Blue Girl in the back (there was this super entertaining and hot scene where a ninja is trying to dominate the main character by sex techniques, revealing she is a futanari and gloating about her technique, only for our plucky heroine to counter the struggle, grow her clit into a sizeable tool, and subdue her foe by overwhelming her senses by pounding her ninpo love tunnel whilst giving her a hand job. Double the tools, double the risk and all that.), or the select few hentai manga and doujin on the fledgling bits of the internet. What were their names.. Hot Tails? Spunky Knight?
When Bible Black became a bit more mainstream for local U.S. it seemingly became a bit more common, but still pretty niche. To be clear, this is regarding both sets of genitals down below, blessed booba of whatever size above, be it by magic, ninja techniques, random wet and sticky madness, whatever.
Pretty annoying to have the word subverted over the years as a catch all term, but what can you do.
Hell, most of the words used to describe the various different feminine style characters such as shemale, newhalf, otokonoko, traps, etc. are absolutely guaranteed to trigger people these days. Language does change and evolve over time and all that, but... yeah. No, still annoying.
Makes things potentially problematic for game devs too, because there are so many different 'types' that are now being stuck under that umbrella term.
Wall of text aside, I have to say.. props for the game name! A proper pun and innuendo all rolled up into one.
It's an ambitious and tricky task working with multiple protagonists, and then with the whole optional nomenclature adjustment factor on top of that. Along with the entirity of the plot, setting, etc. Oof.
While I'm more in the 'variety is the spice of life' camp, and would normally suggest a range of genders to dabble with, I can see the appeal and practicality of the player choosing a theme/setting and just going all in on that. Simplify where you can and such.
I figure that's a similar reason why the male MC doesn't have a optional feminine appearance-- to save on a nightmare of rendering and other adjustments. (Alas, along with old school futa elements, one of my very favorite, if seldom occuring scenarios is a sex postive gender bending romp. As rediculous as they were, the x change games were pretty fun.)
Anyway! Interesting demo with lots of potential, will keep an eye on this one. Best of luck, developer!

I was about to write this exact thing - glad I read this page and saw that you already had! Completely agree, this must (surely!) be the intent.
Oh wow... I created the Dev Thread in the hopes this project would stay off the main page until I was ready because, for one, this is only a demo with a limited amount of content and does not include 2 MILF love interests (1 of which is already pregnant). And two, I'm aware that F95 users have a very uh... particular way of looking at things. I intended to make promotional material that would answer questions like the ones I've seen so far in this thread. I didn't pick these particular screenshots, and I know that is causing some additional confusion.
I'll take over the thread and try to fix it up so things are more clear. I do a lot of boundary crossing with tags and I can already see the potential NTR vs Harem wars brewing. All I can ask is please don't turn my game's thread into a proxy war for that ongoing conflict. I'm trying to give an idea of the content within, but there are no tags that fit exactly what I'm going for, so I tried to get as close as possible.

My answer from the dev thread:Alboe Interactive
Is there a point to having all LI be either female or futa, wouldn't it be possible to set that variable for each LI so we can choose which is which, mix and match
NTR has 3 definitions. Netori, stealing another's love interest. Netorase, encouraging the MC's love interest to cheat. Netorare, MC's love interest cheats without MC's consent. All contain an underpinning emotion of jealousy. I'm not focusing on love interest stealing or extreme jealousy, so a NTR tag doesn't really fit. Then again, one tag representing 3 different things doesn't make sense in the first place.
so you are forced to share but is not ntr, I think this is the first time I see an explanation like this...
btw just out of curiosity, are played forced to play as multiple protagonists too? (will there be an option to control just one ?) Alboe Interactive
is that why you think there is no "jealousy" involved or because those girls you will fuck are involved in a relationship so the "sharing" in itself doesn't come from the mc?
Good luck with the game.
So we are forced to play as both genders?
I think his explanation of it did come as weird though.
My futa characters have a penis, testicles, and vulva. I'll update the screenshots as there are images where that can clearly be seen.
My answer from the Dev thread:
Correct. Originally this was a smaller, 3 character only story which I expanded. The name was still relevant so I kept it.
Thanks!

Idk why i jumped onto it, its not like i have any real skin in that conflict (->vanilla preference of regular female/male interaction). So sorry about that, i'll hold my tongue here. And thanks for the 'off' option and taking the extra render time for all characters - many devs take the easier route and just turn some romance options off instead...
So I chose the harem tag in the sense that "Does the MC get with all the love interests?" And the answer is yes. There are 2 MC's and they will get with every available love interest, including each other. If there was some sort of polyamorous/multi-relationship tag I would go for that.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I think it's the first time I see a good description of the content in dev notes
Good luck with this one
If more than 1 cock is too many, then the female option is available for those players.
I really hate locking things to force additional playthroughs or pad time to make it seem like there is more content. Players should be having fun and, just like video games, I want them to be able to jump in and get to whatever fun part that want.
As many devs here know, having an abandoned game is quite common. A lot give up after the first attempt, but some very well-known devs have stuck around.
My first attempt is poorly coded, has images with messed up color space (desaturated), and didn't garner anywhere near enough support to be sustainable. I also took a couple of multi-month long breaks due to personal life issues and burnout. For whatever it's worth, I'm still here.
Since this demo is free, there are no strings attached to playing. I would like to receive monetary support from players, but I recognize that a lot either won't or can't. Do with that info what you will.
You're fine. I knew these questions were coming, I just wish I had my end ready. I assumed I could stick to keeping this project in the Development part of the forum instead of on the front page. Players here have a lot of conflicting expectations and that caused my previous game's thread to become hostile, from both myself and other users. I know my content doesn't follow tags to the nth degree but, until the tag overhaul finally happens, there isn't much more I can do at this time.
