With the size of the game growing with every update, I thought it might be a good time to look into space-saving options again. Ren'Py used to have JCC as an option for images with transparent backgrounds: This would save the image and the alpha channel as lossy JPGs, reassembling them in-game. Modern Ren'Py now...

Early Access – Interns 0.220

New Build Early access to a new build of Interns is available to backers pledging $5 or more. Support me on SubscribeStar or Patreon! In order to better handle major story events (or, really, be able to handle them at all), I did a complete overhaul of the main schedule code. The schedule update has... Continue Reading →

Update: September 2019

Well, this has quickly become the update from hell for me—Much harder than I was anticipating. In order to get most of the new content I've written into the game and address issues that have been cropping up, my immediate goals were: • Do a better implementation of free days (they're currently a mash-up of...

Update: August 2019

Hey, all! Still alive and still working on interns. Here's what I've been up to: Looks like my big update from last time made quite a mess of things, so I've been fixing the bugs you've reported as well as some that were obvious to me. I'm working through some ideas on better schedule management... Continue Reading →

The Future

Early Access: Interns v0.210

Early Access to Interns v0.210 is now available on SubscribeStar and Patreon for those pledging $5 and up! Whew! First time I've spent over a month on an update, and even then I didn't get everything polished up. Should be a lot more stuff than usual though. There were some major under-the-hood changes, and I'm... Continue Reading →

Update: July 2019

Okay, here's kind of an impromptu update to let you know that I'm still alive. The next build of the game is mostly assembled. It's pretty ambitious, though, so it looks like I'm going to be spending much of this week just testing, tweaking and trying to get it into a state I can release... Continue Reading →

It Works!

Whew! Well, this took forever. Still some kinks to work out, but I've now got a mirror image with working clothes and hair.

Oops! That was really broken.

You know, you can tell me about things in the game that appear broken, right? 😆 I spent yesterday morning and most of the afternoon doing a play-test for the status system (and fighting bugs...lots and lots of bugs). To get the most out of it, I kept a running list of which scenes I... Continue Reading →
