 There are several other NuGet packages and tools that work well in combination with MonoGame and MLEM. Here are some of them:
 - [Contentless](https://github.com/Ellpeck/Contentless), a tool that removes the need to add assets to the MonoGame Content Pipeline manually
 - [GameBundle](https://github.com/Ellpeck/GameBundle), a tool that packages MonoGame and other .NET Core applications into several distributable formats
+- [ButlerDotNet](https://github.com/Ellpeck/ButlerDotNet), a tool that automatically downloads and invokes itch.io's butler
 - [MonoGame.Extended](https://github.com/craftworkgames/MonoGame.Extended), a package that also provides several additional features for MonoGame
 - [Coroutine](https://github.com/Ellpeck/Coroutine), a package that implements Unity-style coroutines for any project
