Re: Problem with CTypes and Unicode characters

Ah yes, I'm aware that it didn't solve the problem, I was just glad that the game launched at all. You can find the dll here in the Kartridge SDK https://github.com/kongregate/kartridge-sdk-releases/releases While looking up this link I also saw that they released a newer version than the one I'm us...

Re: Problem with CTypes and Unicode characters

That seems to stop the error, thanks! The game launches without problem now.

Could this maybe be an issue with the system language or encoding?

A Ren'Py game I'm working on has been released on Kartridge, including integration of their Badges (essentially achievements on their platform). This required loading a library to get access to their Badge system, which I have done via CTypes and so far this has worked out fine. However, we recently...

My current approach is mostly focusing on qualitative data since I also want to look into the effects representation can have on folks but I'll keep it in mind! Id...

Right now I'm looking for a few LGBT+ folks who are willing to be interviewed about their thoughts and experiences on the matter. Later down the line I might also do a ...
