My #MVNA project is released! It comes with many art assets by wonderful artists to make immersive particle effects right away. I spent far too much time adding all sorts of movement options and customization to it, so it would mean a lot if you checked it out!

Ah I forgot to tag it over here in this thread, oopsie! Hopefully its useful to you, and lemme know if you have any more suggestions! I'm always happy to help ❤️

Demoing Spill the Beans at Rendr tonight! Anyone attending feel free to swing by, say hi and give the game a try~
(Why yes, I did incorrectly enter my own name for the lanyard xD)

I have started on this little map exploration thing, with a mask for blocking movement, but I'm not entirely sure how to best showcase it as a minigame... for now I'm just going to focus on item pickups & jumping to labels, but I would welcome suggestions to make it more 'gamey'/featureful XD

Ren'Py Minigames by Naoimh A collection of Ren'Py minigames code.

Finally got time to finish up my MVNA entry for 2 Renpy minigames... still got the minigame itch though, hopefully I can add a few more simple ones over the next few months.
For now, Picross and Memory Match are in there!

So cute!

I do have a jigsaw wip that would fit this actually, thanks for the input! (And for everything you do for the community!)

Ooo a fantastic idea, thank you!

Any Renpy devs who see this, what minigames do you wish there was free code for? Contemplating what to do for MVNA this year 🤔

Welcome back! hope you're feeling better, can't wait to see what you cook up this year!

Cowardly programmers calling it a 'Garbage collector' rather than an Orphan Destroyer

My toxic trait is that every few months I open Inky and start thinking about writing my own Unity line id generator with localisation and VO support with a custom editor just for fun.

Its truly cyclical, and every time I look at other premade options they're never JUST right.

Anyone else doing (unofficial, rip) NaNoWriMo this year? I like the competitive aspect and I'm looking for good alternatives to see how other people are doing at their word count for that good old spite motivator.
My current solution is just a spreadsheet for myself and my mum XD

Thank you for your guidance coach, I'll make you proud next time 😭

A video on the hate campaign against Ms. Rachel for being pro-Palestinian children, but really a video about right-wing attacks on children's early education, but really a video about the importance of emotional literacy. Fantastic watch

I need you to know I bought the game solely because of this tweet and the word yuri, and have been losing my mind romancing my wife Iris and her Terrible Relationship Issues. 10/10, cannot wait to start the other routes.
