I really like the art of the water slime... very pretty critter
Thanks! One of the reason I started this game is to get back into drawing casually after a few years hiatus. I'm just about remembering the hot keys now :p
What program are you using?

Noting that everyone wants to trade items for butterflies and nobody is taking them, because butterflies are inherently more scarce than items. Maybe it would be a better idea to trade butterflies?
I think the issue with trading butterflies is that red butterflies are scarcer than any other kind (taming an earth slime uses more red than anything else), so the issue persists there. Though Curious_Cat seems to have a bunch of reds.

Egan_BW uses their Binoculars. They spot a nice empty space and an additional Red Butterfly to boot!
Wait, what's this? You spy a new Creature out in the Mist! It's big and seems to like how spacious your area is now. It might be a while before it visits - you get a feeling not all of it's friends live with you yet.
VermillionSkies uses their Butterfly Net. They find 3 Yellow Butterflies!
FiveBalesOfHay uses their Binoculars. What a lovely new space and a lucky Orange Butterfly!
Crystalizedmire uses their Butterfly Net. They find 2 Yellow Butterflies and a Blue Butterfly!

VermillionSkies combines a Red and Red Butterfly to get Blood Red Butterfly! Uh oh. Unblinking eyes appear in the mists momentarily. This may have caught something's attention.

A very old copy of PaintToolSai. ClipStudioPaint or Krita is probably better now, but I have various brushes that I used to use for years so I'm a bit of a creature of habit. I like the blending, too.

You can’t target a specific slime when using your flute, otherwise I would have specifically targeted one of the untamed Earth Slimes in my previous turn and not the Water Slime.

The bite of your spear has already left a single, perfect, beautiful wound on my soul. I don't think it could survive a second.

Thankyou it will get goofier :3

@SCREE, I thought I was targeting one of the untamed Earth Slimes.  Oh, well.

Last turn there were 3 already tamed Earth Slimes and 1 untamed Water Slime. A new Earth Slime turned up this turn.
I was wondering if it was obvious or not which were which - I think in future only the Tamed Creatures will be full colour on the map. So you have to tame them to see them properly. I did put White Outlines around the tamed ones but I don't think it's very obvious.

Gather supplies
Use flute on Earth Slime with sequence RYBPO

You can’t target a specific slime when using your flute, otherwise I would have specifically targeted one of the untamed Earth Slimes in my previous turn and not the Water Slime.
At the moment there's only one Untamed Earth Slime so this would work, but maybe I should introduce a Grid to make it easier to pick specific creatures or squares for Binoculars...
