Butterfly soup 2 is finally out!! will it become available to IOS soon??? I sadly haven't played yet- i don't have any android devices and really want to play! i hope it comes to IOS so i can do so. I've seen the trailer and i love it sooo much!!!
OH GOD AKARSHA IS PAINFULLY PAINFULLY ME RIGHT NOW LMAOOOOOO. EVERY SINGLE TIME MY ESCAPISM TURNS INTO REALISM. Every single sentence huuurtssss.
That ending. My heart feels so full. How I yearn for a love like that. In the end, I just want someone to love and be loved. God please let this all be worth it in the end. I want to be happy someday with someone who loves me. This sequel hit hard in every way. They used my life as inspiration fr the falling in love with your friend and hiding your feelings feeling like death itself but also a new unknown kind of happy, the complex relationship with parents, gender, learning to accept yourself. I feel so understood. Thank you.
When I saw that the second part came out I almost exploded with joy! Re-experiencing what I felt a couple of years ago with the first one was the most refreshing and moving feeling of all. I cannot put into words the impact that feeling understood had on my mind, seeing realities so well represented and dialogues that sometimes sincerely made me want to let go of everything I had kept quiet about, it is so important to feel safe, understood and loved. I adore this game and I love that everything flows naturally and at its own pace, without ever losing that unique touch that characterizes the game :)
I especially enjoyed the smartphones parts, they feel so flowly and natural. Did a lot of stuff like that. And I also was the goofy person trying to get the serious smart girl intention :3
Fair, although I am not sure that’s a particularly good idea for most of them. Maybe when they are older, as in no longer financially dependant on them. In Min’s case I doubt she cares to tell them; Diya’s mom has been openly homophobic; with Noelle’s parents it’s hard to predict, though considering their narrow life trajectory for Noelle, I doubt they’d be overly supportive; and apparently Akarsha’s parents probably have figured out something is up anyway, so maybe hers could work. Frankly I suspect they would love to see Akarsha with the polite and responsible Noelle.
These games legitimately made me learn so much about my upbringing and relationship with my own Asian parents in just a few hours, incredibly well-done and adorable to boot too :D
Played this game during last month and MAN, I really missed those 4 and didn't know it! Thank you again for another masterpiece!! Although I felt liked the finale was kinda rushed and would love to see more gay drawings during the game's scenes (aka Min and Diya having lots of fun being adorable with eachother s2)!
Also... GO GO GO AkaElle! NoelArsha... NoAka? AkarNoe? I don't know... But they're great! I can't wait for the sequel!!
Such beautiful fanart for such a silly ship name.
Then again it’s almost terrifying how good the Bowser/Luigi fanart is and that ship is just wild.
In conclusion fan-artists are amazing.
There are no words to describe how much I loved playing this! It was relatable, thought-provoking, heartbreaking, adorable, and so incredibly beautiful! I just finished playing but I immediately want to replay it lol
Funny, bittersweet and amazing representation. I remember starting the first game and playing it all in one go until the sun came up because it just sucked me in so much and this one was even better :) As queer Hong Kong diaspora, Noelle and Diya's sections touched me DEEPLY AND I WAS NOT PREPARED. Definitely my favourite game!!
These 2 games really got me sobbing at the end. As a genderfluid afab, i've loved WOMEN and baseball ever since I was little. These games made me go through such a different perspective with all the races and cultures around us. Although we're all a bit different, doesn't mean that we're not going through the same thing. Thank you for making these games and letting my little baseball loving gay heart sob <3.
Fantastic game that ,like the previous one, manages to make you laugh out loud at almost every line of dialogue while tackling serious issues about identity , gender , love , family and growing up among other topics. I loved the references to the previous game and it shines further light on some of the characters we learned less about in the previous game like Noelle. It was definitely worth every penny and I'm already looking forward to a hypothetical Butterfly Soup 3 ! Thanks Brianna ! <3 PS : The way relationships are portrayed in this game is hugely moving and adorable ! It really feels like reuniting with friends from middle school or high school.
After of month of waiting I've finally got around to play this, and I'm an emotional mess now orz. I love this story, so so much! Thank you for making this. ❤️
I loved it, thank you so much! When I played BS1 around when it came back (as a cishet male teen, though), I was kind of early-Diya as I was quite damn shy but friendly ((and freaking tall)), but I was also quite enamored with the concept of love (cue JSR soundtrack) and knew that if I happened to make a fateful encounter like that, I'd have to own up to my feelings and go for it. The first game also left me with a really strong feeling of romantic loneliness so no thanks for that è_é
But well, it took over four years (with hopes that were not meant to be in-between), and I'm legally a full-fledged adult, but I think I finally found what your characters did. She's a total dork, and I love her (but we're into dogs a tad larger than Pom).
It also makes me realize how lucky I am to have had fair, loving, and respectful parents, it sucks that it's one thing I can't help others with.
Now the only thing left to do is to finally get the chance to try playing baseball!
Thanks for all that Brianna, the whole-hearted humor and drama of those two games really stuck with me, and even though they might not be video-game programming masterpieces, they are definitely realistic fiction works of art!
...sorry for such a long post, I needed to say it :D
I really love this game! Was absolutely hooked with it on my first play through, and replayed it again - a very enjoyable experience! Absolutely recommend playing this game and the first!

"china/taiwan relations" somehow i don't think this game is gonna talk about the white terror lol
An absolute delight! Somehow even better than the first!
Yeah finally 2!
Very wholesome. Very gay. Feels nostalgic, especially being a teenager grappling with sexuality and gender in to late 00s.
For a second I read this as 'Feels gay. Very nostalgic' and I just fucking snorted.
OMG BUTTERFLY SOUP 2! It came out earlier than I expected! So excited to see how it turns out, good work Brianna <33
OMG BUTTERFLY SOUP 2??????? SCREAMS

gay is bad
Agreed, too much mental illness today and everyone is raised getting groomed or in broken homes

AcCoOrDiNg To tHe bIbLe yOu MuSt Be Kind To yOuR nEiGHbOuRs AnD i DoN'T seE ThIs aS fRiENdLy??? NoT SO sAiNtLy eY?
YESS ITS OUTT
Just finished playing it on Android and I teared up at the final scene!
The only point of disappointment is that we never really got a confirmation about Diya being demi.
I'm all 4 of these girls. just...wow.
whether it's in how I act around people, how in my relationships with my parents. i'm all 4 of them
u sure allem are girls? you funny.
oh fuck, you are right
I forgot about Min and their pronouns and transition when I wrote this 😭
sorry about that
Damn, me too

yess i've been so excited for this!¡
Finally! I've waited for this game for so long TwT
Thank you for continuing to make it <3
Hey, so is there a way to change the controls on hiding the user interfacee? I need to for a thumbnail
It's not currently possible to hide the UI in the game! The game's art assets are available here if you need background/sprite art without the textbox in the way https://brianna-lei.itch.io/butterfly-soup-art-assets?secret=qdw2e7OlAMRHZ3d6Qlji3aPcavY
It 404'd
Oops sorry! Fixed the link
It 404’d again! 😭
🤦♂️ my bad, it should work for real now

I especially enjoyed the smartphones parts, they feel so flowly and natural. Did a lot of stuff like that. And I also was the goofy person trying to get the serious smart girl intention :3

Can you romance the characters? sorry, stupid question,
More like the characters romance each other and you get to watch in glee
i would love to see like them coming out to their parents tbh
Fair, although I am not sure that’s a particularly good idea for most of them. Maybe when they are older, as in no longer financially dependant on them. In Min’s case I doubt she cares to tell them; Diya’s mom has been openly homophobic; with Noelle’s parents it’s hard to predict, though considering their narrow life trajectory for Noelle, I doubt they’d be overly supportive; and apparently Akarsha’s parents probably have figured out something is up anyway, so maybe hers could work.

HELP WHY DID DIYA LOOK LIKE DREAMS FACE REVEAL AT THE END
These games legitimately made me learn so much about my upbringing and relationship with my own Asian parents in just a few hours, incredibly well-done and adorable to boot too :D
VERY GOOD game. I spend 2 hours (was it 3? Or 4?) playing it, and it was one of the best games I've played. Yay for the gays =D
The future scene was so cute, I can die happy now

Ahh, so THAT'S what it means!!
Thanks!
Such beautiful fanart for such a silly ship name. Then again it’s almost terrifying how good the Bowser/Luigi fanart is and that ship is just wild. In conclusion fan-artists are amazing.
This game is so wonderful and I love all the characters
There are no words to describe how much I loved playing this! It was relatable, thought-provoking, heartbreaking, adorable, and so incredibly beautiful! I just finished playing but I immediately want to replay it lol
Is there going to be a BS3 about what happens with the future and concludes it or leaving it here or is there going to be a BS3 at all?
