I started off this month trying to work on a "small project". The idea was to have a half hour of gameplay, but I saw that in order to truly tell the story to it's full extent, I would need to expand that length of time. I suggest starting off with a small project first, get some reviews, ...

I knew it had to be something small I was missing! Can't believe I missed that! Thank you :]

Playing this now.

So I've been looking at this and can't seem to pinpoint what I've done wrong. First off here's the code: ##blah blah $ upstairs_done = False label kitchen: #imagemap statement #a long "if result ==" statement goes here elif result == "Upstairs": if upstairs_done == False: $upstai...

What's the traceback error say? It seems to me you're supposed to put everything on one line, rather than multiple ones like this:

$ f = Character('Freya', color="#B3476F, show_two_window=True, etc...)

All on one line, just like above.

I'll say. Just looking at that one screenshot is amazing! A shame it can't be downloaded. Antoher shame that I don't speak Korean >.>

Non-anime styles are done all the time, but they don't seem to get as much attention as the anime styles. I'm also currently working on a non-anime project that's taking forever :/

Congradulations :] I kinda wanna say happy birthday >.>
I haven't been here all that long myself, but I know I'll be here for a while :]

Sounds like you're describing an image map. Yes, Ren'Py supports this. There's a section in the Ren'Py tutorial (the one you play) and here: http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/reference/functions/renpy.imagemap This should help you with placing custom position buttons as well by using the y and x v...

DarkSpartan: I want that goatee you had.

Welcome to all the new talent :]
Always glad to see the Ren'Py community expanding!

Actually, I caught myself the other day on calling the game a Visual Novel since it's more like a story book like sake-bento said.

I also agree with carosene. Recruit people after you actually get way into your project. I have a project I'm working on, and while I would love to have the art and music to add while writing, I don't want to drag people on board only to finish the game one year after taking their art.

Of curiosity, are you doing your drawings by hand?

So I've been thinking about my current VN project and came across a question: What kind of background style should I use? So I decided I'd ask your guys opinions on the matter. Which do you prefer to see in visual novels when playing them: Realistic photo backgrounds, or completely drawn backgrounds...
