I had been meaning to play this earlier, AND I REALLY SHOULD HAVE!!! It's a pretty fricking great story, aaaa. AND THE PRODUCTION VALUE WITH ALL OF THE PORTRAITS AND BACKGROUNDS AND AAAA. The game looks excellent, is a joy to play (gotta get all the money in the world, y'know!!!!), and the story...... It's excellent!!!!! Dunno how quite how to talk about it without spoilers, so just gonna, y'know, put a big gap here, pff. SPOILERY RAMBLING AHEAD!!!




Really love all the characters here!!! ...I mean maybe not Hugh, but he's got a strong character to him, y'know? You really hate him!!! And that makes him a good character. Peyton is just a sweet lil guy, I love him and how nice he is while being partially brooding. Fanny's extremely fun and kinda wonderful in her interactions with Phebe, I love her and her absolute lack of empathy of any kind. AND PHEBE HERSELF............. aaaaAAAAAAA. She's just. God. She's such a perfect character, from start to finish!!!! All of the characters bouncing off of her is so...... uhhhh........... I mean, fun in some ways and certainly not-so-fun in other ways, all interactions powerful overall. I love seeing everybody be so nice to her (mostly)........ EVERYBODY HAS TO BE NICE TO PHEBE!!!! IT'S AGAINST THE RULES TO BE MEAN!!!!!!!!!! I guess there's one thing that feels way too evil to talk about because it's just a raw spoiler, but I figure the name "Butterblue" is probably the obvious choice, right? But one must take their time in deciding a name!!! It's gotta be perfect!!!!

AND THE OTHER ENDINGS..... The Fanny ending's CG certainly got me to go "Oh" in slight horror, pff. It's almost haunting in a way, with how just...... absolutely stale and miserable it is. AND HUGH'S SURE HAD SOME FEELINGS TO IT HUH. Very intense. And both are very nicely paced to be obtainable right before the true ending, WHICH..................... I mean, I did get a little emotional. IT WAS SO GOOD................ Dunno how to point to my favorite part without it just being a raw spoiler, but...... the one before the awakening!!! That!!!!!! I really fricking loved that. BUT I ALSO LOVED THE REST OF IT, Y'KNOW.... Everything after that has such a powerful feeling to it......

ANYWAY YES. This is a good game. A very good game!!! I hope Phebe has an excellent rest of her life!!!!!!!! And!!!!!!!!! Thank you for making this game!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh!!!!!!! This is such a lovely comment!!!!!!! Thank you so much for playing, I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it!! 


I wish itch had a spoiler tag but I love the "Butterblue" idea you mentioned! I actually didn't have a set answer for that particular part of the game and wanted players to imagine what they wanted the answer to be. But I've been lightly toying around around with the idea of writing a few epilogue stories (shhhh... but Butterblue might be coming to steam 👀) but it's sort of hard to write anything if you don't have a set answer for that part! But I like the answer "Butterblue" and I think I'm going to make it the default answer and have players change it if desired. 


Also if the answer is Butterblue I couldn't get the image out of my head that [spoilers below]






Fanny would probably call her "Butts" and the girl is still too polite to correct her so it just sticks. 🤣🤣🤣 

Thank you so much for playing!!

OH MY GOD SHE REALLY WOULD CALL HER THAT WOULDN'T SHE.... IT SOUNDS TOO PERFECT..... Only other name I could think of are.... more flowers with symbolic names, like Lily or Daffodil (Forget-me-nots, too, but perhaps a butterblue is... slightly related to that??? I mean who knows!!! Forget-me-not is a mouthful though pff.) ALSO MORE STORY??? VERY EXCITING (I GOTTA PLAY YOUR OTHER GAMES THOUGH!!! ...They set in the same universe, right? Or is that wrong??? Wanna play them either way!!!!)


But..... Butts and Fanny...... An incredible relationship with two incredible names, pff.

Forget-me-not would be such a wonderful name for her 😭😭😭😭 (even if a little hard to say but it just fits her so well!!) 


And yes! :D My other games are all set in the same world at different time points but I purposefully try to keep them as separate as possible so you don't have to know one story to enjoy the others. In Butterblue, the city of New Working that her and her father lived in was the same city that Fia moves to in A New Don! And the textbook written by Dr. Frank is a reference to Dr. Frank's Build-a-Boyfriend. :)
