I continued the story. Now if you already made a joke in the first choice scientist guy realises that you were joking this time and goes along, plus he likes mc 2 points more after that and gets more confident/less anxious in interactions with mc!

FONT SIZE SLIDER

it wasnt really that hard to make because renpy has a built in feature for that apparently, but that took me long to figure out. the wiki is written so confusingly

Added a new font, BUT also an option for a less fancy, more readable one (it also gets bigger if you select the readable version). And i added the possesive pronoun to each option in the pronoun select screen

I made the most custom custom pronoun thingy i could think of, and am very proud of it! (pronouns in pictures below are just examples, you can freely type whichever you want!)

Made a pronoun selection screen! I will add support for custom pronouns soon.

Implemented a choose your name feature! And i put safeguards in place for certain horrible ideas (The narrator reacts and then the game crashes. Im planning to make it delete your saves as well, just for funnies)

I made the first dialogue that changes depending on a variable just to see if it works and it does. so basically the mc after you made a choice “remembers” that and the later dialogue branches off and comes back together again only with a slight difference of dialogue and a bonus/minus in the scientistlikes, so it still progresses in a kind of linear way but with differences if that makes sense???? Like not “dialogue choice and it jumps to different branch” but choice and it later changes some sentences in the same branch??? Idk its complicated to explain and my brain doesnt english today

I continued making the music idk. i forgot to track more than half the time it took, very frustrating

Started making the theme for the main menu. I have no idea what im doing and it doesnt even sound good. Music is not my domain. Also lmms is very scary just look at the interface. ik what this stuff means (mostly) but still its terrifying

I made a relationship system with the characters (meaning how much they like/dislike you) which unlocks endings, and a personality-points system (that determines the mcs personality) that unlocks/locks certain choices!

I drew the sad and shocked pose!

Lots of dialogue and custom exit box!

Made the characters second pose + did some minor bug fixes in the code controlling the textboxes

I edited some of renpys settings, for example i removed the back button, as well as quicksafe and quickload since your decisions in the game should actually be considered well. I also changed font size, and will change the font once i figure out where to put it.

I drew the sketch of first character sprite for one of the characters on the spaceship! Tracked with lapse, since apparently were allowed to do that
