Re: Golem Creation Kit [Fantasy, Humour, Unique] On Greenlig

Thanks to everyone for all the positive responses! We now have something that will communicate the game far better than any trailer or screenshot -- you can actually play it. A content-limited demo is up for download, featuring 8 of our 25 golems and 3 days of the campaign. Among other things, the f...

Re: Golem Creation Kit [Fantasy, Humour, Unique] On Greenlig

ohhh that looks really cute. It reminds me of King's Quest (well... aesthetically anyway lol) voted! Good luck! Thanks so much! The goal was to be true to the style of the early-mid 90s, which is when most of my favourite games came out, in 256 glorious colours. The sounds and music are much the sa...

Golem Creation Kit[Fantasy, Humour] On Greenlight! New Demo!

Hi everyone! It's past time I did a proper announcement for my latest project, since we've just hit Steam Greenlight . The game is Golem Creation Kit , a little story-driven pixel-art drag-and-drop crafting game inspired by titles like Papers, Please and Doodle God . It was made in Ren'Py in about 4...

Re: Seeking Technical Artist for Effects & Particles

Hi could you clarify a little bit. Are you looking for a programmer? Or an artist and someone else will program? Do you also have examples on what kind of effects these are? We're looking for an artist and programmer in one person, or an artist/programmer team with experience. The task is to create...

Seeking Technical Artist for Effects & Particles

We are seeking an artist to do an effects pass on a nearly finished Ren'Py game, entitled Golem Creation Kit. This includes using good judgement and an artistic eye to create exciting, appropriate and satisfying UDDs for polish and visual feedback, including particle effects. All methods are welcome...

[CLOSED] Seeking Programmer to do a UDD

CLOSED

I'm in need of someone to make a UDD for my game, one that mimics most of the functionality of Ren'Py's native Drags and Draggroups but is more efficient. More information available to anyone who's interested. Payment to be negotiated.

Please PM me to apply!

Re: Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

Sorry can't help you with Win10 issues, though since the problem is driver related, it would be logical to update your display driver with the newest version that supports OpenGL (unless you've done so). Sadly, I've already got the latest Nvidia driver for my card. You might also want to disable ce...

Re: Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

Yeah, I did forget to mention that my PC is running windows 7.0 ultimate 64-bit SP1. I've noticed the issue on Windows 8.0 as well though. The issue persists in Android builds, at least, it did until I updated. I just updated to Windows 10 last week (although a week without internet has forced me a...

Re: Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

Okay, my above post was completely wrong. The problem seems to lie in the OpenGL renderer. When I force graphics settings over to Angle/DirectX, the slowdown disappears completely.

Is there a way I can force all builds to use Angle/DirectX, to avoid this issue if it's not fixed anytime soon?

Re: Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

Can you try updating your renpy first and see if it has any effect when you re-launch/re-build your game? As Imperf3kt mentioned above, his similar problem with the audio is gone once he updated to the newest Renpy. I would happily test your build, but it is more relevant to send the original code/...

Re: Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

Hm.. that's weird indeed.... as if renpy is trying to buffer that audio file at the end of playback. 1. Try restarting the computer and remove all unnecessary background tasks. If you're using AMD processor, try disabling Cool n Quiet feature in BIOS. You might also want to check the HPET setting i...

Re: Using multiple CTC indicators

I don't know if it helps, and the code I did is not pretty, but The Next World has a flashing cursor CTC inline (as the 'regular' CTC icon) as well as an extra flashing arrow that comes up after every say statement. It's a little screen added to the say screen with use extra_ctc. screen extra_ctc: i...

Playing sound/music causes performance stutter

I'm having a very weird problem. Every time I play sound or music using any statement or action (play, renpy.music.play, Play(), hover_sound), my game experiences a momentary stutter in animation and performance. This happens even on the main menu with nothing else going on. I've tried cutting absol...
