Pre-Release Video
They're almost here! The Monarch Butterfly's "Mating & Reproduction" will be releasing soon with Drunk On Nectar's next Steam update. Watch the official preview below!
New: Ground-breaking Anatomy Mode
Internal Anatomy of male and female Monarch Butterflies!
Taking realism to an unparalleled level, Drunk On Nectar will now feature the internal anatomy of its unique creatures. Body organs and biological phenomena will be depicted in great detail for players to savor, adding both educational and gameplay value.
The first creature to employ this is of course the Monarch Butterfly! An "Anatomy Room" for learning and exploring each creature's innards is planned for a future update as well.

Feedback Solicited!
Be sure to watch the Mating & Reproduction Dev preview above and do let me know your feedback!
In this final sprint towards "Mating Victory", I'm working hard to get this Monarch update out as soon as possible. Appreciate your patience, not long now :)

Release ETA
This milestone update for Drunk On Nectar is set to release in December 2018.
The Mating Rituals, Copulation and Anatomy are already complete. Oviposition (laying of eggs by the female) and lifecycle conclusion (albeit "Act 4" will begin the cycle anew in a future update!) are still pending development and will be worked on in the coming weeks.
Until then, enjoy these Anatomy snapshots!

More detailed walkthrough will be provided in the proposed "Anatomy Room" :)

Once again, I appreciate your patience in waiting for this update. It's not long now, so get set for some genuinely incredible yet innocent butterfly-fun, as we don the guise of mating Monarch Butterflies at the end of this year!
With ❤,

PS: Multiplayer support was recently announced for this update too! That is probably something for 2019, but will certainly adds to the overall potential and excitement of this update!
