Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 21 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
"These ruins of a lighthouse have brittle bones.
Ocean once surrounded it. You know the stories...
Of a great beautiful oasis where titans came to die.
Grief brought you here.
Now you are trapped in an endless cycle, on a world that is lost to you."
Part horror, part interactive poem about overcoming and bittersweet surrender, A Butterfly is an arthouse game open world flight-sim meets walking-sim with interactive fiction elements.
You must explore a world that is alien to you. Transcendence comes at a heavy price. Surrounded by a never ending desert where you learn an ancient story. The abyss called your name. You followed it here. Now you are its prisoner.

What a beautiful, unique interactive poem.
yeah this is really great, check it out if being confused and sitting with it sounds appealing to you ,, probably also play this if that doesnt sound great, it may be a valuable experience anyways,, made me wonder what it might be like to play a similar game based on deleuzean philosophy
Dark and dread-inspiring, traversing an area of stone corpses that feels stifling and sickly. Great as a bit of abstract horror art. Imagery sticks with you for a while. Good for a non-traditional horror game experience.

很小品的一部游戏,流程大概15-25分钟之间。 判定偶尔会很奇怪,我因为判定卡了半天关,还以为自己弄错了,不过重打的时候也没影响,可能是随机的问题。 特别喜欢空格键松开、停止飞行时,蝴蝶会撕裂开随风飘走的这个设计,好漂亮好喜欢。
Incredibly beautiful. Amidst the shadows of giants frozen in eternal agony, the poem that makes up the narrative of the game takes a story about a butterfly learning to fly as a starting point to explore themes concerning growth, decay, grief and death. Something in particular that I enjoyed is how this game takes cues from various clashing digital aesthetics (mostly different eras of computer graphics) to create an experience that feels ultimately very organic and analog.
很有意思的实验性小品,alienmelon的将不同风格和维度的minigame融合贯穿叙事的个人风格依旧显著。
