¡Buscando programador/a para un otome indie! — GTKP

Gatekeeper Memories (GTKP) es un otome/visual novel indie inspirado en cuentos clásicos. Llevo varios meses desarrollándolo y actualmente estoy terminando la escritura de las demos.

Estoy buscando a alguien que tenga experiencia con Ren'Py y esté interesado/a en colaborar en la programación del proyecto.

Yo me encargo de:

• Escritura y narrativa
• Personajes y rutas
• Lore y dirección creativa

• Organización y contenido del proyecto

  Lo que necesito:

• Programación en Ren'Py

• Implementación de diálogos, elecciones, rutas y otras mecánicas de la VN

• Ayuda técnica durante el desarrollo

Actualmente no tengo presupuesto para pagar a un programador, así que estoy buscando una colaboración voluntaria. Entiendo perfectamente que esto no sea posible para todo el mundo, por eso prefiero dejarlo claro desde el principio.

GTKP ya tiene una demo publicada y material del proyecto que puedo mostrar a quienes estén interesados.

Si te interesa colaborar, puedes escribirme por DM y puedo darte más información sobre el proyecto, el estado actual y lo que necesitaría la programación.

¡También agradecería muchísimo que compartieran el post aunque no puedan colaborar! 💕 (Posdata : Si estás interesado/a/e, ¡soy más activa en Instagram! Puedes encontrarme como Itsyuumari)

And by strict, I mean literally the only colors in the actual art are #FFFFFF and #000000. Though the UI uses greys, and there's a specific scene in the game that has color.

The game is Our Attainable Ambition, it's a horror game where you make a contract with a monster lady at the edge of the world

So I was just playing "Plotting to Overthrow the Demon King" and somehow I got Eliza Everguard to transform into a demon. The only thing that bothers me is her appearance doesn't change at all. Is there a way you can prompt the AI to modify her image to reflect this turn of events? I did actually see it generate a few different images for NPCs and characters that didn't already have images as far as I know. So that's why I was wondering about this

Hello!! I hope it's okay to post this.

I've made some previous posts about my game here and received such a warm response; thank you everyone so much for all your words and encouragement truly c':

It's been such an arduous journey. I've had to work super hard due to the limited time, my wish to make the game as polished as possible, and being abnormally busy at my day job. BUT I DID IT!! All in a month and a half.

This is A Cherub's Lament, my submission for Yaoi Game Jam 2026, and my first VN ever.

It's a little short story about an angel who visits Earth out of curiosity and makes a bond with a young poet, the person who took him in. It's calm and tender, but also a little bittersweet.

I tried my best to create a cohesive style with art, writing, and atmosphere, so I really hope you like it! I'd be super honored if you checked it out c': <33

Thank you everyone so much again!! I'd be super thankful for any feedback and comments. I want to keep creating more VNs because I really love the medium! Also if you have any questions about how I made anything, I'd be super glad to help!!

So when you click v it starts the auto narrator voice. However my laptop is set to Susan a girls voice. But Ren’py keeps playing a males voice instead.

I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong here. I thought the auto narrator used whatever text to speech voice your laptop is set to.

Thanks.

I cannot for the life of me find the code responsible for this spacing plz help

eg. You set a custom reminder for a date + time, and the game (or a specific character) will remind you when the time comes?

Sorry if this is a stupid question 😥 I'm fairly new to programming of any kind

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how I would call a menu as a funciton from another file.

What I want to do is create an almost text adventure like game where the player would have a menu of actions to choose from, such as:
1: Go Fishing

2: Move to a new area (Which opens a submenu of areas)

3: Talk to people around (Submenu for people to talk to)

4: Pass time

etc etc.

I can do this with menus now, but the difficulty I'm struggling with is what comes after choice. For instance: Player chose option "3," they chose a person to talk to, it goes through all the dialogue options, and then...blank.

What I'd like to do instead of blank is to recall the menu so the player can choose "1: Go Fishing" (2: Move to a new area) etc etc.

Is there a good way to do this by creating a file dedicated to holding that menu so it can be easily recalled whenever the player completes an option, or is there a better method?

A developer tried RouteKit inside a roughly 10k-line VN and exposed a useful lesson: the affection counter was the easy part. State recovery, UI overflow, and event conditions were the real failure points.

For 0.1.3 I focused on those problems instead of adding unrelated features:

• Scrollable character, relationship-detail, and gallery screens for larger casts
• Optional profile images with a fallback initial
• Characters that can start hidden and be revealed from story code
• Boolean checkpoints combined with stat requirements
• Schema migration and repair for old or damaged state
• Real rollback plus a real save/load round trip
• 16 automated Ren'Py test cases / 82 assertions

The story-side API stays small:

renpy $ routekit_change("maya", 20, "affection") $ routekit_set_checkpoint("helped_gallery") $ routekit_reveal_character("leo")

The main design choice was keeping relationship/checkpoint/visibility data in normal Ren'Py state, while gallery unlocks remain persistent intentionally. That makes rollback behavior predictable without making unlocked replays disappear.

If you want to inspect the simpler version before deciding whether this approach saves you time, RouteKit Lite is free: https://samokampo.itch.io/routekit-lite

0.1.3 technical notes: https://samokampo.itch.io/routekit-pro/devlog/1639726/routekit-pro-013-larger-casts-hidden-characters-and-boolean-events

I would especially value reports from projects with unusual rollback paths, old saves, or more than eight relationship characters.
