Re: Image compression

I finally downloaded this to try it, and to compare it to the website. Apparently you are only supposed to download the Win 32 version. The other versions don't have the EXE file.

Re: Buttons and Doors

Thundorn has videos on a similar subject with clickable icons on a map. Doors should work the same I would believe. This is part 1 of 4 parts of this little section, and video 21 of a Ren'Py course he put on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CikDL3-ZLU&list=PLKdE0Vv4UA5-dqJLpDkPt5CLQzc6h...
