I quite like the visual style of your game (it almost reminds me of chalkboard illustrations come to life). I too am a new developer and Itch seems like a great launching pad for people like you and me. We can post projects here and get honest feedback from both developers and players. Good luck on your current and future projects!

Thank you. I recently finished my kinetic novel, The Midnight Trooper, but it is not indexed yet. Fingers crossed it happens before Halloween. Right now, I am putting the last few finishing touches on my script for a second kinetic novel and my full-length visual novel is at about 75%-80% complete. I want to get it done by early 2027 if it kills me (and it may very well do just that!).
There is some coding involved with Renpy, but many people say it is one of the easier engines to learn. It all depends on how complicated your game is going to be. I’m no genius and I picked up Renpy without too much trouble. I just watched youtube tutorials, practiced along with them, looked at sample code, read the documentation, and in one weekend I felt comfortable enough to begin in earnest. Good luck!
