My Own Sweet Dionaea
You're a botanist and a biotech engineer. As such, for the greatest exhibition of your life, you prepared for it your latest experiment: your own Dionaea species. Maybe it's the stress of your competitive workplace, or the complicated state of your relationship with your husband, that has driven you to this impossible situation.
Because what do you mean you accidentally dropped undefined DNA into the Dionaea specimen's genetic mix and now you have a humanoid plant?
Let him whisper on your neck. Look into the eerily beautiful eyes staring back at you. For science… and don't forget who you are.

Can't wait for the full game!!!
nice game bro!
feed me Seymore, feed me all night loong
i think this game is the MOST underrated demo ever. i cant wait for the full release!!!
I was fine with Walter to begin with, until the mini argument and when he just left?? Good thing we all have our beloved Dionaea!! Another demo where I look forward to the updates! ♡
Is the full game released?
Walter is such a dick. Never thought I'd ever write this, but he 100% deserves getting replaced by an androgenous plant twink.
Thank you for this intriguing game, I'll definitely buy the full game when it comes out.
Enjoyed this a lot!! Can't wait for the full game
i will spend an entire paycheck on the full game when it comes out omg!! the art is so beautiful and i love the dialogue/story line
Amazing! I need the full game!!!
Can't wait for the full game!!!
The game looks interesting, I hope they will be an android version full release of the game as well. Most of us have androids. Shout out to the creator, even without being able to play the game I can tell its amazing by the graphics!😊
I cant wait to for the full release,! :o,
This was wonderful!! I can't wait for more (and the righteous anger I feel for Walter shall be quenched the moment I can feed him to my own sweet Dionaea). Thank you for this demo!!
Can’t wait to see more
I really want to see more of this game/project, its so good!! I enjoyed it a lot🙂↕️🙂↕️🌱
woah this is super interesting also absolutely love the character designs but first chance I get I'm feeding Walter to Dionaea
Will this game be completed?
It will! Full release got delayed, but we may have an annoncement in regards to plans for it soon ✨
I loveeeeeee thiisssss
great game so far! i enjoyed the character voices however there were a few spelling errors throughout the demo. Funnily enough, I thought Dionaea was a girl and came here for yuri HAHA. Lastly, i hope Walter gets devoured by him, he's so entitled and pisstaking.
so excited for more to come!!! will be following this game
( ˆ𐃷ˆ)
Fantastic work!! I love the art and designs so much, and the complex history between Saoirse and Walter has me intrigued to see where this will all go. (Poor Good boy!!)
The UI design adds to the immersion and genre so beautifully, too. I like the plant leaf frame behind Saoirse's portrait. The VA's did a great job bringing this demo and its script to life!!
Looking forward to the full game & any devlog updates<3
eat me like a bug
Hello! I am interested in the game but wanted to know more about the "pet suffering" warning? none of the comments mentioned more details
Sorry for the late reply. MC has an elderly dog with increasingly bad health issues, so you get to see that from the get-go. Next not sure if it's spoiler considering this is a horror VN but you can ask me again if you really want to know 😅
I will probably link a more in-depth list of content warnings once the full game is out too if that's helpful!
genuinely this is one of the most unique vn concepts ive seen, the whole venus flly trap yandere love interest thing is right up my street, and the demo has me hookeddddd. i cant wait to see this continue ^u^!!
Loved this and i second the notion that Walter should be fed to Dionaea.
I can't wait for more!!
this game is so good! i can't wait for the game to update or for the whole game to release, tysm for making such an awesome game!
You're not really selling me on Walter being a love interest.
Agree. Agree.
we should feed him to Dienaea
Maybe... but I'm also a sucker for redemption arcs lol. If it happens.
Please for all the love on Planet Earth give me the option to feed Walter to Dionaea.
I loved this game the whole idea of a humanoid plant fascinated me and to top it off it's based of a Venus Fly trap had me hooked.
Walter triggers me for personal reasons lol but its a shame cause he is so cute, but Dionaea is on another level I'm completely captivated.
ohh smmMMMASHHHH
🤍GREAT GAME🖤
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!
I'm a huge fan of monster romance, and the concept of a plant monster is so unique and exciting. I can't wait to see how the relationship develops. The art style is beautiful, and the characters are really well-written. I'm already so invested in the story and the mystery behind Dionaea. The dynamic between the main character, her husband Walter, and Dionaea is full of tension and intrigue.
I'm eagerly awaiting the full release <3
It’s beautifully illustrated. Cool clothes, cool sci fi GUI, beautiful sprites, great voice acting, breathtaking backgrounds. Very polished visuals and audio. The relationships between Saoirse, Walter, and Dionaea are fascinating to watch unfold. I liked Saoirse’s personality a lot. Interesting premise and the execution is grandiose. It felt like a professional big budget VN worth paying money to experience. Magnificent polish everywhere. I’m excited to see where it goes. Thank you for sharing this.
Fascinating idea! I don't remember any VN that builds in a bit of awareness towards this particular exploitation of our earth's flora from big agriculture companies - and the resulting loss of our biodiversity (how can you patent a seed? How dare they willfully mass replace seeds to destroy our plants' diversity).
This is a bit of a pet peeve of mine since my family has farmers and I grew up on a farm. When my grandfather decided to import a more resilient old Russian grain seed so that his wheat has a better chance of surviving harsh weather the big local agriculture produce company didn't wanted to take his grain. After all he didn't buy their overbred seeds from them and required less chemical spray. So he had to find a privately owned milling company to sell his grain to.
Anyway sorry for the rambling... Art, music and writing came together in such a lovely blend here. Very cohesive. And the writing doesn't meander.
Regarding uploading it on Steam and your Spooktober submission explanation of your plans:
Steam had to change some policies reading certain countries over the the past years, due to them failing to implement a proper age verification system. They already hid "adult" games from the store in my region (Germany). Games that don't have a developer/publisher given rating will be hidden from the affected regions, too.
The rating is an internal Steam survey on the Steamworks page. It requires a bit of your time, but thankfully doesn't ask for additional money. Then there are some weird new rules for releasing additional content for adult games - like DLCs. I just wanted to let you know after reading your submission page and hopefully this game end up being "not too adult" for Steam.
There are games and in particular visual novels that fall into the mature category that are still visible on the shop. I think the 18+ adult hammer gets only enacted if the game is too explicit with sexual content. Hah... I can still buy super violent games(DOOM). It's never about the kids.
The way my breath stopped at the child scene! This is amazing so far! I look forward to the full release.
Will the 17+ rating change as the game develops, or is the plan to always be 17+?
It very much depends on how I feel about writing the endings and VAs about voicing so I can't say 100% "no, this is perfectly clean"😭 However, I can say that the "final" version we're about to release has no NSFW art nor sex scenes. It's mostly on the suggestive side.
I love this demo so far. Walter sucks so I'm rooting for Dionaea.
As a carnivourous plant enthusiast I LOVE THIS!! There's so much detail, like the Dionaea being where its flower would have grown, way way far from the traps and all!
