There are two angles on this: prose and VN. From a strictly literary standpoint, ensuring that the audience knows who is speaking is a factor of the writer's skill in a text-only format. Traditionally, you use dialogue tags when it might otherwise be unclear who is speaking, but once you initiate a...

This reminds me, I think the Debian repo is sitting at v6.11.14 currently.(Haven't looked in a while, so that memory may be off by a few versions,) @Pytom. I don't know who the package maintainer for the repo is, I'd assume it's you, but I could very much be wrong. At any rate, do you know if the re...

Little tip for your writing though, look up the basics of coding needed for your script so you know what ren'py can do for you and to avoid unneccesary effort. F.e. Josie: <sentence> can be summed up to j <sentence> because you only need one (capital-sensitive) letter to define a speaker. And it wo...

What you have in that pic is hard embedding of subbs, they likely used .ass files, and encoded them into the video through programs such as Aegisub. It's more work than it seems to do those subtitles. Doing it in Ren'Py without hard-embedding the subs, song, and CG into a mpeg of mp4, and then calli...

For me, the art style I tend to like in both anime and VNs, it would be the style used by companies such as 3Rrd eye and Lass. They don't fully move away from realism, and manage to give that sense of realism, while at the same time giving that feeling that it lies in in a world separate from our ow...

Well, this is something I learned close to a decade ago in an art class I was taking, for when it comes to drawing people. Find a base image to practice with. Now then, when you are trying to draw the image, turn the image you are trying to draw upside-down. If you're looking at it right side up, yo...

Huh. Sales still going on it seems. Would likely be a nice buy if it didn't require Windows.

Well for me, I've spent the last 14 years writing in prose. I went from complete amautureish writing, quite literally the writing of an eight year old, and have developed it into the level of near professional writing. The only reason I say it isn't professional level is I've never really considered...

You'll want to start with MoA. MoA is actually two games, First Arrival and MoA. Not sure why you're having issues downloading it, I just tried and it downloaded without any issues. Heres the direct download link from the website. http://sunrider-vn.com/SunriderMaskofArcadius-all.zip . If you want t...

Liberation day isn't that bad. I do agree Samu-kun could have done better on the presentation of the story, but the story itself was still good. Not to mention the fact that Re[turn] is pretty funny to read. He gave me the choice to import my choices from the previous game and then said 'Nope! I pi...

Can't believe no one has mentioned 'Cupid' yet, or 'The lady's choice'. And I also liked 'Ascension' by Impqueen/RinMaru but that one isn't on Lemmasoft. All Otome by the way. For Otaku, my opinion here may be biased by inexperience (these are the first two VN I ever played) but I also liked Sunrid...

Open up options.rpy and look for this line.
It will be set to true, if you set it to false it'll hide the text.

Not sure on the splash screens, haven't attempted anything like that yet.

Well, I don't tend to do the faceless MC in the stories and books I write, but in the cases where I've seen it that I found it enjoyable and likable, they all had one single common factor. The MC doesn't take an active role, rather acts as more of a bystander, with the story being laid out and drive...

The static values within the persistent save file itself. While the script is running, it reads values as active, and when the script exits it writes them as static. Thats what I meant when I said it doesn't register. It isn't until renpy either exits out, or you call renpy.save_persistent() that th...

That only takes effect when the script closes though. While the script is still running it won't register the changes, as renpy won't reload persistent data outside of the init phase unless it registers a change to the file on disk while the script is running.
