Visited a nearby federal courthouse to see a museum there, and had the lovely experience of helping a family of new Americans take a group photo together.

The new Patreon article is up. It goes over July's work - including the two big releases. It also has a new displayable that lets you display taps on the screen.

Patreon day, talking about the work on 8.4. Both the work I did, and some features I spent the last week or so merging in.

Today's Ren'Py change - allowing CTC to be positioned as part of the speech bubble screen.

Today's first batch of Ren'Py dev has been a bit more accessibility work. An accessibility menu redesign to show dialogue underneath, and font kerning adjustment support.

I wonder if any designers want to make themselves hated by suggesting a redesign for Ren'Py's error and utility screens.

Someone asked about Ren'Py processing people's personal data.

Patreon Day. This one takes us under the hood of Ren'Py's rendering system, which I've been speeding up.

Patreon Day.

This month's article talks about the changes to Ren'Py I made in December, which are mostly behind the scenes, but should make development easier and faster.

Ren'Py Patreon Day. As I'm closing in on the 8.3.4 patch release, I thought I'd write about what helps issued get handled quickly, versus which ones get queued up.
