Apologies, I`m not at home PC at the moment. Think of the scene (if you do recall it) where Denise panics! at the museum: her sprite is moving around in "shaky" manner and, deeper into the scene, is repeatedly scaled-in to achieve visual effect one would link to a panic attack. Tech realization is somewhat clear; but this method should have a name of sorts, and hopefully I`ll be able to lookup papers regarding how human beings do perceive images differently with the usage of this method.

Ok i get what you mean but sadly can't help you with it. Hopefully naughtyroad reads your post and can explain it.
I think in real life film photography, you get that effect of the subject shrinking and the background blowing up by changing the focal length of the camera while moving the camera closer or farther so the subject appears at the same size and position.

In game, I made that effect by zooming the background and Denise sprite in opposite directions. It's all ren'py ATL applied to still images in that scene.
Just to make sure there's no misunderstanding in this regard, the above was added to the OP by one of the moderators, and the moderators are the ones pruning this thread and removing any inappropriate comments (and doing a damn fine job, too
).I personally have a rather laissez faire approach to the whiny antics of the why-isn't-everything-in-the-world-made-just-for-me brigade: they go into my little ignore basket where they can howl at the injustices bestowed upon them by the nasty, nasty world in solitude.
Thank you, guys. While I understood the tech side, your answers have indirectly helped me to formulate correct search request. For anyone interested, example on the subject:

Long story short, there is a significant difference between moving static sprites around to create an illusion of motion with character, versus showing rendered scenes one by one, and this explains the mechanism. I wonder why everyone and their moms do not use this trick, as for me this was (sorry) immensely helpful for better immersion.

I would NEVER abuse my favorite chunky chicas!I'm totally ok with it, but in all honesty, I'm not sure what you'd wanna mod at least in terms of cheating, because there's no grind. All there is to the point system in the first two chapters is a way to track how you play the game and tailor the responses and flow of conversation, so maximizing love points just serves to make you go WTF why do they act like I'm the nicest guy ever while I was a bit of a jerk all along?
At some points, there'll be alternative endings but they're a bit away and if you want to avoid them, the path will be clear as day. There isn't and will never be a hard to find "right" path through the game. Think Lucas Arts and not Sierra.
Translation mods are very welcome; if you make one, feel free to slide up in my DMs for a localized Macy and Denise render to promote it.
I you make a mod, please don't hack out the creator links and keep sharing it and the game free of charge. Feel free to solicit for donations for your effort though, if you think it merits it.
If you mod abuse in for our girls, me and every fan here will hunt you down and wake you up with a broomstick thwacking every morning for the rest of your life.
I chose the font because I thought it matches the personality, but if you wanna change it, replace the Lolita scorned .ttf file under game\fonts with something more of your liking. If you want to change the color or size, you'll need to modify variabledeclaration.rpy (but you need to unren since the last public release).
And I agree it is too soon to mod something, I was just asking in case in the future I felt something could be made about it, thank you. I also agree that the font is the right "type" for Macy, I just think there may be some other grungy fonts that are easier to the eyes, I'll try to come with a few suggestions later rather than just ask for it.
I could help with the translations to spanish, though I have a feeling you may already speak spanish youself, either way the only thing I would be a little worried about is the word plays and innuendo jokes that usually can't be translated straight as they are.

Yeah, there's some nudity and we can see Macy giving herself some love once. The office girls aren't all that cute but I guess it adds realism that not every single woman is a super babe, though do we really want realism? It may also come to personal preference, I like the tiny, purple haired girl with the daddy issues.

Decided to replay cause why not....don't remember this being one of the main menu background last time.
Nice.
Nice.

My command of Spanish is extremely poor. Sr.H10003 seemed interested at providing a translation (see next quote). Might be worthwhile to DM first.
Anyways, I also wanted to look into making translation easier, by providing a template of sorts with the next chapter, but I have to do some trials first, I'll post more when I've gotten round to it.
I agree, innuendo is a problem, and of course puns, being the lowest form of humor, are quite hard too. There's quite a few times where I'm playing off misunderstanding of a word or turn of phrase to create confusion, and that will likely be hard to translate.

Oh... someone's feeling butt-hurt. Let me address before I ignore, for the benefit of the crowd if nothing else.
I take feedback very seriously, and I value anyone who takes the time to write a review or a critique of something that they don't like or think could be better. It's super valuable information that I can use to improve what I make if I can, and I've taken much of that to heart to fix problems in the game already.
What is utterly useless, however, is the one-liners about how the characters look like goblins, monkeys, gypsy's, Bollywood whores etc. (all real life examples from this thread). As feedback goes, there's absolutely nothing to work with there. Bottom line: you don't like them, many people do; there's no accounting for taste and this is just not the game for you, and it never will.
So, what's got you so worked up? You're complaining about how you're branded a bad guy because I don't agree with you, but you've provided absolutely no constructive feedback. In fact, there's only one post here and its a screeching rant about how only ugly people could like the main character. Oh, and there's the cute post on my profile about a micro penis. Classy, that gave me a chuckle.
In your spare time, do you also write letters to the Hershey company telling them you don't like chocolate? I'm not sure what you expect of me, but I'm quite sure I can never supply it. So, so long, and may you find a game more to your liking on this awesome site, there's sooo much good stuff to be had and this is just wasting time for both of us.

Dont even bother replying to this dude. I got 1 PM full of insults and then he made a new acc to insult me on my own page trying to start a fight with basically "i am right and you are wrong because i said so" still not understanding that "objective beauty" doesnt exist as a vocabular and what he means is actually "subjective beauty" with again alot of insults to get the point across that i am wrong.Oh... someone's feeling butt-hurt.

Funny that i am not the only one this guy tries to insult. And he even made a new acc to do so. XDDD
As you said valid critique helps and is welcome but one liners basically stating that his/her or anyones opinion,taste about YOUR game is the only valid option is beyond ridiculous.
Just report this guys and put him on the ignore list. Every word with him is wasted lifetime.
