Hi all, thanks so much for your feedback! The mixed response proves that it's impossible to please everyone! I'm afraid I'm sticking with Ren'py from hereon in. I'm sorry there's (currently) so little content compared to the Twine version but I'm porting it across as fast as I can, and wanted to share a teaser of the new version with everyone but can see how this might just seem super short and frustrating to play. Please know that I'm working as fast as I can to get more of the old game up and running asap!
Thanks for the kind words Macdoobie, Jackwhite6, Aliceee, AntisocialSocialist! And for those asking about why I've switched away from Twine, it's mainly because i have so much more control over the visuals. (CSS was never my strong suit). I've written a couple of longish blogs post on the subject on my Patreon too if you want more deets, but yeah, that's the long and short of it. Sorry if it's not to your taste, but i'm much happier with how it looks and plays now.
Phudup - sorry this is annoying for you! You make it sound like i am some evil mastermind, working to frustrate you on purpose! (When in actual fact, I think i just implemented some code from the Lemmasoft forum wtihout realzing it would totally override things!). Seriously i thought the reading speed settigs in the menu would still work! But if they don't I'll make sure to switch that back in the next release, and thanks for the heads up!
