So far, it's very short, but I've gotten to grips with the basic fundamentals of Ren'Py and demonstrated them in the build. There's also a few extra dialogue choices with Wanda in there that you haven't seen yet, so give them all a go and let me know what you think!
Things to note:
- There's a bit of exploration that you can do around the beach area, but nothing is meant to happen there at the moment.
- There's a PC and a Mac version, but I have no way of testing the Mac version, so if you're on a Mac, do let me know how that goes.
- All art is subject to change and improvement, especially the backgrounds, which I have some big plans for. Just consider the current backgrounds as placeholder art to get an idea of what locations there will be.
- If you follow the game through to the current ending point, a page will display with my future plans for the game.
The build is early access for all of you, so please enjoy and don't go distributing it around just yet! I'll be releasing it to the general public in a month's time and hopefully it'll pull some more interest so that I can spend more time developing it.
So have fun, and I look forward to your feedback!

It's the part after the # in the link.

What's the decryption key?

It'll be a mixture of both of those, but I'll be aiming to include all of the content listed in the description here: https://www.deviantart.com/tonbelly/art/I-m-working-on-a-visual-novel-dating-sim-897035087 My plans are evolving as I go though, because as I learn to use Ren'Py I keep discovering more things I can potentially do, which gives me more ideas. It also doesn't take as long as I would have expected to put scenes together, so I can potentially produce quite a lot of content within the game, even working on it solo. For now the plan is fairly loose, but after a few more builds and a bit more support garnered I'll think about making a roadmap for the project and actually get things set in stone.

already cool 😁👍 I am already looking forward to it. 😏 What will you be focusing on btw? The WG aspect? Stuffing? Or do you plan to keep this going as "tech demo"/"test" for now and start over with a new project once you have a grip on things?

I will definitely be releasing on Android! It just takes a few extra steps to do so (mostly as I have to adjust the UI and make the navigation touch-friendly). It'll probably happen one or two builds down the line. Edit: iOS almost certainly isn't going to happen, having looked further into it.

I can't look at it today (as i am gonna go to sleep now) But just as general suggestion: Android. A lot of people (including me 😜) prefer to play these kinds of VN on their phones since they can do that in their beds and stuff... And with the Ren'Py engine it should be relatively easy to just export it as apk 😁 (and i am always happy to help you testing)
