| You can just keep trying at those puzzles – which means that they’ve now been designed to make them almost impossible to solve by dumb luck. Some puzzles will reset and re-randomize their solution if you fail them, so think before you act! this pleases me immensely. for the point-and-click interfac... |

| If the choices just change the next line of dialogue, then it's not really worthwhile, and players are going to feel like what they so doesn't matter. even so, I would think having some of the choices do this would be fine, as that gives off more the feel that it's hard to tell when choices matter,... |

| ok nvm... it was showing the entire time, but the text was in white... the same color as the bg... so it was like invisible... It's a good idea to keep track of any colors, fonts, sizes, etc. yourself. if you're not sure how, it's on this page: http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/style.html#list-of-all-s... |

| it is, though as far as I know, you'd have to use python's function for checking the current time. renpy has a function for checking how much time has passed, but it only counts the time that the game has been running. I didn't search for long, but I found this function that might be useful: http://... |

I didn't mention it on the thread I posted with something like this included., but the reason I embedded the flashlight into the other code is cause it wouldn't show up wh... |

Quote: In an actual game, would it be better to have exits in the graphic (such as the doors) just by themselves; or also have arrows that indicate movement?
depends on the game's atmosphere. in this case, either would work as long as the player doesn't have to search for them |

interesting game. I think it would have been nice to have a separate way of telling her to use an item. that way it's easier to tell when something didn't work.
if you make another game like this, I would advise against imagemaps if possible, as they're not very dynamic or efficient. |

I've only been doing so to avoid typing as much, but I don't think it wou... |
