it doesnt but i can easily add that and in fact i will. I wanted my visual novel maker to be more old school and I like that idea.
as for release date I think I'll release a alpha version probably tonight perhaps within the next 2 hours of this comment if all program ending bugs are ok. the maker is pretty much done as of now but is missing a lot of polish and can be a little unintuitive.
I haven't worked on it in a minute but I might as well put it out for people.
as for price I'll put the alpha out for free for you
