A warning for those of you who change the mouse cursor in-game: I had in a previous version of Ren'Py changed the mouse cursor using something like setattr(config, "mouse", {"1": [("images/1.png", 20, 20)]}) This somehow doesn't work anymore in version 7.5.1 of Ren'Py! There is no error message, but...

Yes, a lot of the backgrounds in The Last Secret are photos (either creative commons or those I took by myself for the game) processed with various software and with hand-drawn corrections and add-ons (like light rays, reflections etc.). Here are some examples (one pic, three short videos): https://...

I will write something under "published games", but wanted to properly close this thread...

Wow! Thank you very much! That was some Voodoo-Ren'py-Magic, but it works like a charm.

Thank you, but unfortunately, it's not that easy: I want the game to start directly (the first time), not just have it call a tutorial there. (The tutorial is integrated into the game start, so I don't want to make it "stand alone".)

The game will be released on August 31. The first reviews are pouring in already: there was a very nice one in the DGoZ, and now Indie Spotlight has also reviewed it and gave it a pretty good 85% rating: https://www.xblpartypodcast.com/post/indie-spotlight-july-2 If you want to wishlist the game on ...

How can I skip the main menu depending on whether a certain (persistent) variable is set? (More precisely, I need to skip the main menu only the first time the player plays the game.) I know about label main_menu: return But this skips the game always and I don't see any way to put this into an IF c...

This sounds amazing and must have been an incredible amount of work! We, makers of VNs, can only say a big thank you to you and then we should do our best to make good use of your efforts to produce wonderful games with it!

Right click be default shows the menu. That confused several test players (all VN beginners) a lot. I therefore took that out by removing it from the keymap with $ config.keymap['game_menu'].remove('mouseup_3'). Now I got the request that right click should roll back one line. That also makes sense,...

Translations into Spanish and Chinese made good progress in the last week. If you want to help with the translations, particularly for Ukrainian, Russian and Japanese, please contact me. We're a nice team and happy if you join!

You probably used $ hike = "m" instead of $ hike = m . *face palm* Yep, that's it. This would have been the easy solution. Just define a new speaker hike wither as m or k and then use that throughout this section. I'm certified stupid. Next time I'll program something like this, I know how to save ...

You can write your string with substitution inside like call hike_say(_("This is a sample, addressing the player with the player's name in a variable: Hello [playername]!") and use [ . . . !ti] to interpolate translated string. Okay, I need to digest this interpolation thingy, but it sounds cool. B...

I suggest: call hike_say(_("This is a sample, addressing the player with the player's name in a variable: Hello {nw}")) extend "[playername]!" Okay, that's an elegant workaround, thank you!. I should have come up with that, too. :? Looks like I'm not smart enough. :roll: EDIT: However, it doesn't w...

I have changed the function as described: label hike_say(text): if hike=="Meilin": m "[text!t]" if hike=="Karina": k "[text!t]" return Now most cases work, but not unfortunately, not all, since there is one more special case, namely constructions like this: call hike_say(_("This is a sample, address...
