Ren'Py has gained a self-voicing speed slider as part of the accessibility menu. It lets you set the speed of self voicing from about 1.0x to 3.0x normal. (On some platforms, the adjustment works a bit differently, but that's the intended range.) 1/2

Ren'Py 8.6 will have a new option to select the voice used for self-voicing from the voices that are available on the user's device or web browser. (Depending on the platform.) It's going to be one more setting available on the shift+A accessibility menu. 1/2

There needs to be a medal for the person who realized you could put a camera at the end of the Orion solar panels, and wave the panels around to see the astronauts looking out the window.

This morning, I added a progress bar to Ren'Py Sync, so you can gain confidence your upload or download is in progress.

It's not much, but it's the first visual output from the port of renpy.pygame (and eventually, all of Ren'Py) to SDL3.

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. (Public pic zoomed in to protect their privacy.)

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.

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. patreon.com/posts/119048...

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. www.patreon.com/posts/renpy-...
