Re: Ren'Py 7.4.x - my computer is neither 15 years old nor a potato, and it doesn't like Ren'Py 7.4.x.
Games made with newer Ren'Py regularly slow down on me, seeming to glitch and briefly get "stuck" when I press/click to move to the next image. It's not a huge problem, and hopefully newer versions of Ren'Py will improve this, though I am skeptical. From what I read it appears the problem is that the newer version requires a more recent graphics card than quite a lot of people have. That doesn't mean the devs shouldn't update, but I thought it worth mentioning.
For reference, you may find this interesting:

- in section 2, the dev mentions performance issues and their plan to provide the game in both 7.3 and 7.4 so those who have problems with 7.4 can keep using the 7.3 version.
I can compile PC with the latest Ren'Py and see how it performs for me. I also will accept such glitches if
TD1900 decides updating the engine is what they want to do.
Right, enough about that. Let's get back to discussing how great this VN is!
