On some VNs I played whenever there's a new character being introduced, the game shows the character sprite from bottom to top while describing the character's characteristics. I'm pretty new at using Ren'Py so basic codes are all I know and I wouldn't want to introduce a character by simply just showing an image
Please help!

Re: Introducing and Describing a new Character
I'm sorry ahahah. I'll try to explain it as easy as I can.
Basically, I want to show a character where the camera angle starts from the bottom going upwards.
It's like when you look at a person you first look at their feet, the chest and then their face.

Really, thanks!

Re: Introducing and Describing a new Character
Personally, I prefer introducing characters the way you do in a film or television series. They enter the scene, have a Character Establishing Moment to show the player what the character is like, and the plot continues on to the next scene.

Re: Introducing and Describing a new Character
I thought about that too but it wouldn't suit the way on how the story would progress.
I was aiming to make a boring looping game where I want the player to feel what it's like to live a life where nothing changes. Patience is needed and I want the player to persevere through the loop till he/she reach the twist.
Your advice is appreciated. I will be sure keep it in mind and use it to my future games.
Thank you.
