im actually quite impressed with how much stuff can be done with a simple coding engine like Renpy. at first i just made some dumb novels that im too embarrassed to share, but i also came across different code-inputs you can use to make a visual novel more interactive. like adding gallery + different endings for players to find + a simple fun dress up aspect to not make it too boring. also something else: i just used a POV to describe the main character, but there is also a way to make it possible for you to customize your own character. as well as adding different routes you can take and using the persistent codes to make it fun to unlock different CGIS.

i maybe will start to work on a bigger project during the summer break, as im too stressed with school right now and the upcoming exams, so the most free time i'll have is the summer break. it's a bit unmotivating though since im just one person and i have to draw every single aspect of the game on ibispaint, just drawing the sprites and backgrounds take days. plus i want my new game to have a better customized GUI, and not the plain automatic Renpy one. (i also realized you can customize the logo of the program as well !!)

basically this was a pointless rambling i just decided to throw out here but i think it'll be fun + painful to actually make. im still learning programming as im literally an amateur and still suck but that's how it is sometimes
