How about the German word instead? Schmetterling!

I'm not sure if I love or hate that.

The Swedish fjäril is pretty good, though I can't find out what the etymology is, seems to just be a very old word for the animal. One source does claim it comes from an ancient word with the meaning of flutter.

You know what, flutterfly would be a much superior name.

Wouldn't work in Swedish though, we already call bats fladdermöss (fluttermice).

Ooh Swedish! I can't speak that but I know the basics of a mutually intelligible related language:

Hae Minn Venn! Hvordan har du det? (Hi my friend, How are you?)
I also can say Jeg vill gjerne ha en kapp kaffe (I will like a cup of Coffee).

Svensk venn....du komma fra venn. F95zone....Amerikaner og Engelsk. (Swedish friend, you come from far. F95zone American and English (mainly))

I can't tell if that's Danish or Norwegian, would have to hear it spoken. Buuut since you said it's mutually intelligible it's Norwegian.

There are a few Swedish devs in the scene, but it's often hard to tell since a lot of us are good enough at English that we fly under the radar (until you hear us speak, that is). Aj spik verri good Inglish, nå axxent att ål.

But yeah, I'd be very surprised if North Americans weren't the biggest demographic.

It was a good surprise to see this long and quality story write maybe my expectation was low but this is a hidden gem. I don't like futa content but ruru is a exception. Maybe bcs she-he love mc? or she can be girl without dick when it need it to be. xD It feel more sharing without mc know it. :)) That's really funny.
Did have some long time between the updates or is a exception bcs of irl problems?
Waiting for ep 8 hope you don't abandon the project.

It does seem like people in general expect far less from the writing. It's probably the most difficult quality to advertise in a game, a lot easier to showcase fancy visuals. That said, I suck at advertising in general... I've been meaning to make a new banner here for the entire year.

Yeah, I do find futas that can select when to have their dick on display are more appealing to me. Though I'm sure some might argue that doesn't make them true futas.

Eh, my productivity is always inconsistent. I do sit down every day and get something done, but how much is up in the air. I did also do two uni courses in creative writing, this spring and last autumn, so that did take time away from making the game. I started a third course recently, but dropped out. Was almost certainly going to crash into a wall otherwise, I've done that enough times that I'm getting wise to the signs.

As far as completing the game, that's something I'm hard committed to, so no worries on that front. Whether I'll keep on going after that is dependent on my future financial status though.

Thanks for the praise, cheers!

Would be nice to see Ruru as more of a Yandere towards the MC, maybe turns the MC female and gets her pregnant as some form of control as an ending. Could be a funny twist would like to see some more lovey dovey moments with the MC though.

I do plan to have some sort of optional gender bender stuff for Mr. MC Donkey in one of the endings. Not entirely sure how that'll shape up or anything, not in the habit of making concrete plans ahead of time.

dev seriously grown since first update, there was many sloppy part at first but he sure did a serious quality jump and reach height i wasn't dreaming/hopping for in a game that's free on f95 ...
i'm actualy not into ntr and having dicks all over my screen so i do get you less irked by it, though about there be sharing ... i'm actualy still wondering if the "maid" actualy love donkey -_- i see more probability for her to use him as either a walking mana charger or a vessel for resurecting a demon king or some evil god
i didn't read all of the dev comment here so if he did say there was factual love i just read too much in some scene ^^ like donkey cherry poping, that scene kinda gave me mixed feeling, did she mean he has potential as a male partner or he satisfied her thirst for mana ? though later on there's "hint" at both i don't remember seeing something factualy conclusive :S

Hola, ¿tienes pensado que el protagonista descubra que Ruru tiene pene? Y si es así, ¿crearás una ruta donde lo acepte y, al tener sexo con Ruru, pueda elegir si tiene pene o no, y otra ruta donde lo descubra todo, se enfade con ella y la deje, y ese sea el final? ¿O cómo lo harías? Saludos desde Argentina.

People thought they stole butter? Dafuq. Or possibly because some of them have a buttery yellow color? What a stupid way to name an animal. Henceforth they shall be known as Fancywingflies.
No idea why they're called butterfly, but they drop butter in Don't Starve with a very low chance. It is a really good health and sanity healing food and takes a long time to rot. And non of that makes any sense now that i think about it, just like the name of the animal i guess.
