Re: R. I. P. Tour [Thriller][Dramedy][Customizable Main Character][Demo available!]

The voice blips are hilarious! :) I think the add to the game and make it easier to know which character is saying what.

Re: Edge of Darkness - Volume 1 [Amateur][Horror][Mystery][Episodic]

Well, this is embarrassing... There seems to have been a problem with the download link at the game page at itch.io . Apparently the download was not working. I was using Google drive to host the game file, and have now changed to Dropbox. I have tested the download link and it is now working. If yo...

Re: Wet Steps [horror, urban fantasy, romantic comedy] [release - October 2020!]

The trailer looks like it took a lot of Inspiration from "The Ring" movie. Is the VN thematically similar to it?

Re: [FREE] - Textbox & Logo Designs (Request Open)

Hello there,

You were recommended to me by a user here. I am interested in getting a logo and textbox for my episodic Visual Novel. I do not use Discord so I have sent you a PM.

Oh and... yo también sé leer español. Hablarlo no tanto, pero aquí todos usamos texto, ¿verdad? LoL :lol:

Re: Creepy House [18+] [Parody] [Dark Comedy]

From just these samples... The art style brought to mind the old LucasArts graphic adventure games like "The Secret of Monkey Island" and "Day of the Tentacle". I don't know if that is something you were going for or just an association my brain immediately made. :) The Cthulhu d...

Re: Displaying multiple Text Images at the same time

Thanks, hell_oh_world. That was exactly what I was looking for. I had checked that very same page of the documentation you linked to and missed that bit. :P Is this in the splashscreen or something? Just add a pause between each show statement (add a number for time or no number to let the player cl...

[SOLVED] Displaying multiple Text Images at the same time

How do I display more than one text image at the same time on the screen? Is this supported by Ren'Py? Each 'show text' command deletes/replaces the text image already on screen. I know how to display multiples of the same image file on screen by defining it under new names. I assumed the process wo...

Re: How to hide custom UI quick menu during screen transitions?

I would like to know this myself as I had the same problem. And I *really* don't like the design of the custom Ren'Py quickmenu to begin with, but I lack the skills to make and code a new one. :) I don't even know how manually disable the quickmenu for transitions, like you mention. So my 'solution'...

I made a page for the VN at itch.io. Future volumes will be uploaded to that site.

Re: Dear Elise [Linear Novel][Horror][Historical][Lovecraft]

I would change the font of the character's names, or at least color-code it for each different character. I found it hard to read and tell who was talking on some instances.

Re: Does this sprite look okay?

I wasn't really going for a somber look, although it could work since it's a mystery/horror game. In any case, I'd rather make the colors more harmonious. Are there any colors you'd suggest in particular? Do you think adding a purple or bluish tone to her hair and socks could fix it? Thanks for com...

Re: Does this sprite look okay?

Quality-wise it looks quite fine, especially for a first sprite. In terms of aesthetics I would agree with the comments pointing our the extremely long legs. I'd personally go for a slightly more 'anatomically realistic' approach in that regard, but that is just personal preference. You might also c...

Re: Edge of Darkness - Volume 1 [Amateur][Horror][Mystery]

I will have to download Version 1.1 to see what has changed ^^ Nothing much. It was was just removal of content and replacing some of the harsh words with softer cursing. :) There's still F-words and the like around, but not nearly as much. I hope I haven't discouraged you, I really like your VN, a...

Re: fading effect starting from the top?

For me, with my limited knowledge of Ren'Py, the easiest solution would be to use one of Kirikiri's .png files for a dissolve effect. I coded something similar to what I think you're trying to achieve last night for the sequel to my VN, except the 'beam' image was a full background picture rather th...
