Thank you. I recently finished my kinetic novel, The Midnight Trooper, but it is not indexed yet. Fingers crossed it happens before Halloween. Right now, I am putting the last few finishing touches on my script for a second kinetic novel and my full-length visual novel is at about 75%-80% complete. I want to get it done by early 2027 if it kills me (and it may very well do just that!).

Nice. I checked the one you posted on the sleepy hollow story. Quite liked the movie. What's your engine ?

The engine I use is Ren’py. I enjoy learning about its version of python, but still have a long way to go before becoming proficient. One day, I would like to maybe do something small with RPGMaker or a cheaper knockoff.

Coding is my flaw... I'm thinking about using RenPy for my next visual novel, is easy to handle ? Aah RPG maker... So much memories... It's fun to see what people can still make out of it. 

There is some coding involved with Renpy, but many people say it is one of the easier engines to learn. It all depends on how complicated your game is going to be. I’m no genius and I picked up Renpy without too much trouble. I just watched youtube tutorials, practiced along with them, looked at sample code, read the documentation, and in one weekend I felt comfortable enough to begin in earnest. Good luck!
