Fucking hell, that's parenting done right. If there's linux support, I'll check it out out of morbid curiosity.

MODERATORS
Haha, thanks! Neither one of us is super techie, but his dad and friends are, so I will bring it up as a point to them.
He should post on here, I'm sure plenty would be eager to help! This place is full of Linux ppl
If it's half as good as Hatoful Boyfriend, a dating VN where you date literal pigeons, I'm sure it'll be a huge hit with the bug furries and people who just love bugs.
I played that many years ago. It was wild and uncanny :D
That’s a good point, actually. One of his very close friends is a furry (although a fox, not a bug), I wonder if he served as inspo.

Dialtown: Phone Dating Sim
If you've ever wanted to romantically pursue a phone, then hot DARN, do I have just the game for you.
All Reviews: Overwhelmingly Positive
I raise you Date everything
date everything is so impressive, i can not imagine wrangling up that many voice actors
Honestly, Hatoful Boyfriend was far far better than I expected going in.
~~I'm not sure they count as "bug furries" unless they're into bees or tarantulas specifically.~~
Edit: Never mind, I just DDG'd it and there are more fuzzy bugs than I thought.
They can even just put fuzz on the non fuzzy ones. We got furry dragons; why not furry praying mantises? 🤷♂️
I've never held with the idea that one has to literally be furry to be a furry. It's an umbrella term. (But by all means, make the fuzzy mantids!)

Finally a way to answer the age old question: "Would you love me if I were a worm"
Would you love me if I got cut in half? Which half?
If he has a Tumblr account then he's going to make a fortune.
How did you get my son’s Tumblr account? 😂
Funny you should post the bee. His bee is a lot less sexualized:
If he releases anything, post it here!
It's so fucking cool to see you backing his creative projects like that. I'd play it.
i have a vague idea for a dating sim esque game wherein you’re a factory technician and you have to date all the machines to fix them.
idk when it happened, but the meta for dating sims now is “you can just do whatever you want” and i’m SO here for it
Deep rock galactic fan creations has entered the chat
But Doretta is just so pettable...
This needs to have a character that's speed dating where it's literally just the "guess we're making ___ now" meme
Damn you and your family are fucking cool.
Is there a rolly polly?
There isn’t right now, but I think that should totally be an option. I shall pass it on. Should it be into polyamory so it’s a poly rolly polly?
Gregor Samsa would be so happy if he'd lived today
doubt. he wasn't happy when he did live.
Dating bugs? In this economy?
Best use of this template yet
For whatever reason, reminds me of ...
Naked Lunch (1991) - IMDb https://share.google/zB59vfl6NU4OLvcnc
Love to hear it! Hope you share more if it ever goes public, plenty of folks who'd love playing that. (It's me, I'm plenty of folks.)
I will absolutely share it here ~~if~~ when they finish it.
Weird dating Sims are really fun. I loved Hatoful Boyfriend and Date Everything.
Please make sure that all of the ass-sets of the game will be released to public if the development ever stalls!
There is a rhinoceros bug that’s a gym bro. He lifts, and he is swole. On the femme side, Kiki the moth is very elegant, and Miranda the tarantula has a pet frog.
Yes, this needs to be released to the masses. Art belongs to the people.
Pet frog for the tarantula :D
Thats the thing i hoped for after reading the headline
Wish him well for me and ask him to consider adding a marine gastropod of some kind please.
Also in case he isn't already aware of it, some music to listen to while working on bug creations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIYnXgvRJVM
Blowfly girl anyone?
