Switch to Renpy and new updates!

Reflections VN Alpha
A browser game made in HTML5

 Hello everyone, I was going to simply post an update on the old thread but there's so much to talk about that I simply decided to make a new thread

It's been a while since the last time you've heard from me and this VN project I'm working on, I've recently  resumed working on this project and I've got a ton of news to share with you, let's start where we left off, the old version of the VN was fully coded in godot by a former associate, and while the engine is super flexible for all sort of games, it is NOT very flexible for VN making, sure with enough work you can make most of renpy's features work but yeah that's extra work you have to put into it before you can start actually doing any VN making, and I was also unable to help with the code which frustrated me, all this made me switch to renpy where I'm currently coding the VN myself, so far I've reached the point where the old godot version was but with a TON of improvements, such as

>Quick Save and Loading

>Save states

>Back button to go to the previous screen

>Actual preferences menu for sound level, text speed and much more

>Added several new face expressions for alan,veronica and petra

>Added a brand new animated background for the text box

>Game can be played from start to finish (godot og content)

>Added a windows icon (small addition but still)

>Improved animations and text effects over the godot version

the only currently missing feature is sound mixing but this is mostly because I prioritized graphics and story over everything else and I'm kind of lazy looking for license free background music and granted some of these improvements are part of renpy's toolbox but still I see it as an improvement over the old godot version

you can find this new and all future versions on my Patreon 

there's a bit more outdated version available on itchio too if you feel adventurous! 

lastly you can give me feedback and discuss the VN via the dedicated server with this Discord Invitation
