[SOLVED!] Scrollbar + Viewport for Custom Menu with Text

Hello! I am working on coding the UI into my game, Laika, and have been scratching my head on how to make this work. Here is what I am aiming for with my screen design: https://i.imgur.com/3SNnsgE.png Basically, I'd like to include both text & images from the writer of the story, detailing a bit...

Re: Laika [SuNoFes 2018] [Told from a dog's perspective]

Week 1 Update: Giving this a second shot, as I failed to complete Laika during last year's SuNoFes. I feel like so much has happened between last July and now! I went to Japan for the very first time last September (something I've always wanted to do), finished a number of UI commissions , started ...

Re: Discussion about visual novel unlockables

I think one of the most memorable galleries from recent games I've played is the gallery in the letter. You can unlock backgrounds, CGs, "epilogue" art that pertains to the lore & history in the game, and "item sprites" which I really loved!! they were so much fun. Including ...

Re: Where can I upload my game?

Itch.io is a pretty popular place to upload games to these days. There's also Steam (though I believe you have to pay and get your game greenlit/approved first). Another option is to create your own website & host your games there. I would be wary of any sites that make you sign an agreement sa...

Re: Players name themselves vs. OC character

I personally really enjoy being able to name a character in a visual novel after myself. It usually makes me feel more connected to that character, and oftentimes more invested in the story than I would have been. To quote Dale Carnegie, "We should be aware of the magic contained in a person's ...

Re: Do you play as same or opposite gender?

I love games where I get to be a girl!! So I would rather be a girl (as that's what I am) but I don't mind playing a boy either :D I remember being like 10 years old and playing Pokemon Red and wondering why I had to be a boy. And being amazed when my dad let me play Tomb Raider on his computer and ...

Re: New VN recommendation site launched

This is absolutely AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for creating something like this. After going through the quiz, some of my all time *favorite* VNs popped up, along with quite a few that look very cool which I'm super excited to try out.

Awesome work! :D

Bolding the Chapter Names on Save & Load Screens

Hello! I am working on designing the save & load screens for a game, and was wondering if it would be possible to have the time and date in regular text, and the chapter name in bolded text, as shown below: https://i.imgur.com/guCWSY4.jpg If this is possible, how would I go about making the chap...

Re: Looping Back to the same menu with variable text

I love and hate this story. So, the way I'd do this is to move the label outside the menu, and simply increment a number each time the player makes it through the loop. First off, initialize a counter: default thought = 0 Then increment it by one each time you go through label think. label think: $...

[SOLVED!] Looping Back to the same menu with variable text

Hi, I'm working on a game about Laika the Soviet space dog, in which you play from Laika's point of view. I have this menu that they player runs through in which they have to go through each menu choice before they can progress with the rest of the story. Here is what it looks like coded so far: men...

Re: Save / Load Screen Transparency behaving oddly?

FileSave and FileLoad automatically call the yesno_prompt screen. You can't see it on your save screen because you have the zorder set so high. You need to adjust your menu and style the yesno_prompt screen appropriately or turn confirm off (FileSave(x, confirm=False). You are exactly right, thank ...
