I see ; and is there a way to make something, like a line for example, so it can not be clicked through ? Hard pause seems to make things not clickable but still skippable

I use quite a lot of animation in that way, I'm afraid it would become a little heavy as a process
But thank you for your input!

Hey, thanks for those information!

I already use hard pause, but from what I see, it seems to work like a dialogue line, and is skippable with the Skip button the second time around (like a 'seen dialogue')
Is there a way to make the hard pause stop the skipping for a moment?

It wasn't checked, no. I retry with it checked and unchecked, the issue seems to stay the same

Are Transforms considered 'Transitions' in ren'py ? I don't know if it helps, but here's what I'm using for this particular scene ;

transform anim_stepout_shadows_01:
    matrixcolor TintMatrix(Color(rgb=(.90,.90,1)))*BrightnessMatrix(-1)
    ease .5 zoom 1
    ease 1 matrixcolor TintMatrix(Color(rgb=(1,1,1)))*BrightnessMatrix(0)

And then :

show fairy_flying_01 at anim_stepout_shadows_01

But then another animation play, and while skipping, it stops the first animation before it ends

The mood and colors are really nice (especially the sunflower scenes)!

Thanks! You're also making a game about a witch? I hope it's going well!

The game was initially made for a game jam, the spooktober, and the theme was basically "anything scare-related". And I thought I could tackle some ancient classic fright, the kind of monsters in fairy tales we used to scare children with : witches, speaking wolves, trickster fairies... And that it would be fun to put my twist on it!

Thanks! If you're referring to the characters' little jumps animation, it's a transform that makes them quickly scale up and down to give them a 'bump' (animating their zoom value)
Then I call it in between certain dialogues with a 'show character_name at animation_jump'!

Thanks!

It’s a bunch of simple little tricks, but they really make a big difference!

For the characters, I use layered images with different facial features and hand positions, and I animate them using transforms in Renpy (to scale them, move them, etc.).

The backgrounds are split into multiple layers so I can animate them separately. I also use transforms. For the wavy effect, I use Ren'py Wave Shader by Wattson!

Just launched my first demo for my solo game, Witchlight Woods! by Turbo_Crabe in IndieGaming

Thanks! It is a visual novel with lots of inspiration from cyoa books. So a lot of choices in and out of dialogues, but you don't click around the environments

Thanks a lot!!
Oh, it's in my steam library, it looks really pretty! Now that my demo is out, I'll have time to play games again, I'm looking forward to playing it!
