Any tips on how to start off on ren’py? hi yes, its me ashy from thy server!

Hellow hellow Ashy ! Feel free to directly dm if you wanna ask things I have no issues with that !

For anyone wanting to start renpy I heavily recommend you to first watch tutorials about renpy basic work to first get familiar with how it work + see what you can do with the engine and how you'll be able to use it for your story. Here a link to the tutorials I personally watched when I started and who I go back to every time I feel unsure about something.

Once that done and you have a base knowledge, I invite you to search into itch.io / reddit / online forums for more advanced codes or very specific content you want to make but don't know how to begin with. You can check Feniks itchio or stella's itchio who both published really useful assets pack (Stella is also the host of make an asset jam which is a game jam I recommend you all to check)

Now that all for learning, in practice what I recommend you is to do multiple test on renpy. Make test projects where the purpose of it is for you to test code or visuals before actually coding for your game build. Poke around stuff, do tests to get more familiar with everything or even use this test to copy paste code you find online to try to understand how they work.

Did a bunch of audio dev and plot mapping today, but that's rather hard to post (and might give away too much anyhow), so here's another character sprite.

Didn't get too much done today, but did get the first big CG finished up. Here's a relatively spoiler-lite chunk of it.

Depending on the length of the scene, I may have to paint a number of variations...

A writing sample from today's work on the VN.

Seth has some weird intrusive thoughts, though they're not entirely inexplicable.

Suffice to say that long-term residence in the Holy Northern Republic has some unforeseen consequences for the psyche.

A background and choice preview for the visual novel.

Medical stuff doesn't come up all that much--but, when it does, Seth is the one pushed into the center of the action, despite being a C-average student who would much rather be transcribing hospital documents than performing field surgery.

Thank heavens that it's the player themselves who gets to decide whether Seth will either flush the wound or, as professionals say, "rummage around in there".

The final full image will only be available in game / in the art collection ^q^ but I am working very hard on this
