Welcome to the Colony! 🐞✨

The Lady-Bugs is a private, girls-only Steam group dedicated to the softer side of gaming. Whether you’re meticulously decorating a cottage, befriending every NPC in town, or embarking on a low-stress indie adventure, you have a home here.

We created this space to escape the noise and toxicity of larger gaming circles and replace it with a garden of kindness, support, and shared excitement for all things wholesome.

Why join the Lady-Bugs?

Safe & Inclusive: A strictly moderated, women-only environment (inclusive of trans women and non-binary feminine-aligned gamers).

Cozy Over Competition: We prioritize relaxation and fun. Our favorite "stats" are how many flowers we’ve planted or how cozy our digital rooms look.

Resource Sharing: Discover hidden indie gems, trade tips for your favorite sims, and find reliable co-op partners for a "no-pressure" play session.

Supportive Sisterhood: Share your latest screenshots, gush over cute art styles, and chat with fellow cozy enthusiasts who just get it.

Pull up a leaf, grab a cup of tea, and let’s play something sweet. ☕☁️

Colony Guidelines: How We Keep the Garden Cozy (READ FIRST)

May 9 - Taylien | 0 Comments

Welcome, Bug! 🐞✨

We are so glad you’re here. To maintain the safe, supportive, and relaxing environment that defines The Lady-Bugs, we ask all members to follow these Colony Guidelines. By joining and participating in this group, you agree to uphold these standards.

We operate on a system of Kindness First. Repeated violations of these rules will result in removal from the colony.

1. This is a Women-Only Space
The core purpose of The Lady-Bugs is to provide a safe haven for women and feminine-aligned individuals (including trans women and non-binary people). This space is curated by women, for women, and our identity as a marginalized group in gaming is paramount. Respect this boundary. Attempting to bring men into the group (via shared accounts or invites) is not permitted.

2. Absolute Zero Tolerance for Hate Speech & Bullying
We have zero patience for negativity here.
-NO racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, ableism, or xenophobia.
-NO gatekeeping ("You're not a real gamer because you play...").
-NO harassment, personal attacks, or deliberate "drama-starting."
-Be kind, be gentle, and treat each other with respect.

3. Keep it Cozy & Drama-Free
Many of us use this space to de-stress. Please keep external drama, heated political debates, and heavy topics to a minimum.
Avoid passive-aggressive comments or "airing grievances" publicly. If you have an issue with another member, take it to a DM or contact a Moderator.

4. Spoilers! (Use Tags)
Many cozy games are story-driven. Do not ruin the surprise for others!
When discussing recent releases, plot twists, or endings, always use Steam's spoiler tags: your spoiler text here.

5. Sharing & Self-Promotion
We love seeing your creativity, but please use judgment.
-Allowed: Sharing screenshots of your farms, custom designs, art, and gameplay questions.
-Moderated: Self-promotion (your stream, your Etsy shop, etc.) should be limited to the dedicated thread only (The Pollination Post). Do not spam self-promotion.
-Not Allowed: Selling items/codes to other members, begging for free games, or posting phishing links.

6. Moderators Are Your Friends
This group is a community effort, and the moderation team is here to keep the peace.
Respect Moderator decisions. They are final.
If you see something that violates these rules, DO NOT engage. Use the "Report" function or message a Moderator privately.

Thank you for helping us keep the Lady-Bugs the cozy colony we all love! 🍵☁️
