Good news! Tranquility (my #BaraJam game with @ruisselait ) is now available on Google Play! This is a more censored version than on itch, but it's native (and not sideloaded) rather than a web build Thanks to @ProjectEnso_ for making it happen! #TQGame

A question in the #renpy Discord today made me wonder how I'd build a search minigame that has a light "illuminating" the scene. Turns out it's not all that hard to do... (Need to tweak the appearance distance for the button though.) Maybe #zags needs a minigame or two?

Now that I have 12 released* games, some #vndev #indiedev thoughts - Browser-playable games get more plays but get fewer donations - Donation incentives don't change the rate of donation (but may increase the $ amount per) - Make games paid if you want to make money, period

"Given that I am not a homosexual, this sex scene actively detracted from my enjoyment of the visual novel." Y'know, I'm not even mad. I find it hilarious that you ignored the options to turn off explicit sex scenes in a game clearly marked as BxB, and then complain about it. 😝

I've seen a lot of #renpy confusion about align/anchor/pos/offset Anchor is where in the displayable you measure position from Pos is position relative to parent Offset is tweaks to position from normal point Align is a combo of anchor and position Maybe this diagram helps?
