Re: Built-in walkthrough?

You could do it through the same channels as the default help file, an HTML file that exists in the same directory as the game. Just use a persistent flag to unlock it like anything else.

Re: When people don't get what you do.

Semi-related, I'm a phlebotomist; I draw blood for medical patients. (Not like blood donation, I just take vials of blood for doctors' needs.) Anyway, it irks me to no end when a patient walks in, tells me what needle to use, tells me I'm doing it wrong, and asking me if I'm old enough to be workin...

That is a head scratcher. Is your alignment right? Ren'Py is a bit particular about how your lines are indented.

I'd recommend you don't. It makes the CIA nervous.

Re: Dark or Bright? (Odd title yeah...)

There's definitely reason to love both. I love light stories because they're usually infused with humor, a good ending, and after you're done, you can sit back and realize how much you enjoyed it. Dark stories have the utmost potential for character development, and can put the player in difficult s...

Re: How do I add a side image to my game??

This may sound simple, but make sure you check that the file name is correct and in the folder it's supposed to be. The file names may be case-sensitive as well, so double checking that may help.

My script has been in the making for 11 years now. Granted, it started off as a novel, but still.

Re: Ethics of the diet

Your "health" section is full of significant contradictions from medical science, something that will bug me until the end of time. Don't try and push medical science "facts" that are actually fiction. And just TRY to refute these, Wright. Vegetarians have a 20% lower rate of mortality from all caus...

Re: need help for my game

It's also hard to create characters if you don't have things mapped out first. If you start with the art, then start doing the script, you'll make one of two mistakes inevitably: you'll either start changing your art to match the script you write, which makes things take longer; or you'll start chan...

Re: PLEASE SUPPORT AN INNOCENT ANIMAL

Writer or wisdom has nothing to do with this. I am a believer, student, and practitioner of medical science. Medical science indicates that human diets are only fully balanced and healthy when we consume both meat and vegetation.
