In the Persona games, for example, dialogue options have no effect on the plot but can be used to customize character development. I don't think you can call that pointless, especially in such a character-driven medium like VNs. May not affect plot, but it does affect how other characters react to ...

In both the first and second visit you're sending the player to "ki2". You wouldn't notice a difference because there isn't one. Also, in your code for has_visited_kitchen == True: has_visited_kitchen == True: jump ki2 stop music fadeout 1.5 scene black with aaa c"Whats the matter wit...

Oh, and Plymouth, England, UK for myself.

Did you declare the variable has_visited_kitchen as 'false' at the beginning of your game? You'd want to place it in your Start label, so: Replace cho2 with whatever label you actually want the player to go to first etc.

Ouch. What game was that?

The simplest way would be to have a variable check at the beginning of each scene. So say you choose "kitchen", you have: if has_visited_kitchen == False: #Events for the first time visit $ has_visited_kitchen = True jump next_label elif has_visited_kitche == True: #Events for the second v...

The moment you have an option that fails to impact the narrative in a meaningful way, you have too many options. A VN with a hundred different branching points could seem like the right amount of options, so long as each was well designed and written. A VN with just three options could have too many...

All I know is that you probably want to say room.clear() instead of room.clear But that's the thing - room.clear calls a separate function that does a clear() and add a fade. Would using a different name for the function, like 'empty' be advisable? But yeah, that still doesn't explain the string th...

If there's no reason for them to be there later in the story, don't force it. It'll seem, well, forced. A better question might be: do the parents need to be there at all? Every single scene, line of dialogue or character has to serve a purpose. How essential are they to the story? Does the setting ...

If you're building the launcher out of screen language, does this mean it'll be theoretical customisable by the end user? I always enjoying skinning programs to suit me just so where the option is offered.

Hi guys, this is more a Python question than a Renpy question but I figure this is as good a place as any. So I'm building a point and click interface using a similar system to that of a messaging interface: init python: class Object: def __init__(self, path, target, xp, yp): self.path = path self.t...

If it's genuine roleplaying you want to present to the player, than consistent good-to-bad ordering isn't what you want. In life, we rarely know what the "right" or "good" option is - we agonise over our choices because there are no stats. Sometimes we can be really lustful, but ...

For me, personally, it would depend on how 'gamey' your morality system is. Is it like in a WRPG such as Mass Effect where you have a linear morality scale, ranging from 'goody-two-shoes'-to-'drowns puppies for fun', and every action moves you along the scale in either direction, with your position ...

Snap. What city do you hail from?

Now with my problem. I'm trying to create a game that has a similar interface like Digital - A Love Story . It would be a interface of an imaginary OS. The problem is I don't know where to start, so I need so help. I've looked in to the code of Digital, and it was really hard to understand. Actuall...
