Re: Newb having a little trouble with True and False statmen

Keep in mind was trooper6 said as it will help this make sense. Be sure to read any of my comments, which are prefaced with a # and won't be read by Ren'py # The game starts here. label start: $ rude = False # You'll need to start by defining any variables at the beginning here with "False" or "True...

Good thing we aren't required to show our faces-- I'm also in the "no webcam" boat.

Re: Help making Phoenix Wright style UI

I would try this code: *Ps, the init -2: section at the bottom turns the buttons into textbutton-like buttons rather than hyperlink-like buttons, but that can simply be commented out. screen choice: window: style "menu_window" #These are what you use to adjust the Position of the buttons. They are c...

Re: How can I stop making sexist games?

Here is the advice I can give you: 1. The Bechdel Test. Even if your game is about romance, it's obviously possibly. 2. Treat your characters equally. Make them human. Give the females the same amount of personality, desires, wishes, fears, and drives as all your male characters. This is VERY import...

Yes! Really, I'd like to see any place not set in Japan or some other East-Asian country. Or at least with a better description of location in general.

Re: Prologue: Caged Bird [GxB] [Fantasy, Romance, Singing!]

1. Does the idea appeal to you? Yes! I love the story! 2. Which character is your favorite? I'm really not sure, but perhaps Trevor! 3. Does the idea of character songs appeal to you? How much? I do like the idea, however, will there be reading during the songs? By this I don't mean lyrics, but rath...

Re: Movement [GxG] [Drama]

Update! Alright, as you can see, we have a brand-spankin'-new title and logo! http://s29.postimg.org/t4moxlvlz/logo.png I plan to keep this title (except maybe add in a "the") but I'd like to make the logo a little more visually appealing ;). I've updated the screenshots on the main post, but here ...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

It is really, really, really hard to comfort others, help others, give advice, or anything at all similar to that, when you're really, really, really struggling with your own life.

Re: Check Out [Boardgame][Simulation]

Oooh, I'll definitely be following this. Is it a commercial game?
I've never seen a board game made with Ren'py, so I'm very interested to see the outcome. :)

Re: When the Bells Toll (Romantic Suspense)

Whoa, this looks fantastic. Characters are authentic and realistic (which I love to see!) and I'm really into the story-- I love suspense. :D Can't wait to see any further progress!

Level of logic/realism in a VN

In any case, research should always be done if you don't already have experience in writing about the topic of whatever your VN circles around. Completely and totally making up stuff off the top of your head might be okay on occasion, but in order to have a story that makes sense, has no holes, and ...

Re: Scums of the Earth [GxG] [Drama]

1) Does the logo or title offend you? Do you think others could find it offensive? Is it problematic? Nope! I don't expect anyone else to be offended either unless they're only able to look at it at a surface level. 2) Is the art unique? It's definitely recognizable! I like your character design a ...
