Figured I'd share it here. Both my Action and Spooky FX packs are on sale as a bundle to raise money for MVNA's prize this year. We hit our goal more or less instantly, so I forgot to post about the sale bundle here.
You can get either pack for 25% off, or both for $10

Cat print, special transitions, two more slash away effects and a new category of line transitions coming, thanks to your support!
I've been working on some shaders to pair with these transitions to add some style and fire to them. The financial support really helps, so thank you!
I super appreciate the huge amount of support! As promised I added some(14) puppypaw transitions, 2 slash away transitions (as requested by a friend) and also added 100 additional abstract transitions! I'll do some more animal prints and other effects if folks have requests.
Even that REALLY weird one?
As always, your girl is still working on the main transition she's been working on, so cash is appreciated. For every $25 I get I'll make some animal print transitions like these, until I get bored or run out of animals that I know the shape of their feet.
Hey, it's been a while! I just submitted my entry into this year's MVNA Jam. There's 423 transitions for use in RenPy to make your visual novel!

Sealed With a Kiss jam is returning in 2026! This year we have two themes you can pick from or combine to make your own magical kissing visual novel!
Aren't Plum and Lemon cute together?

Frankly, we couldn't have done it without you Cody.
Together, we saw 65 voice actors (and a dog(yes, really)) as characters across over 20 visual novels. I think this may have been our community's biggest push for the advancement for creating opportunities for VNDevs and voice actors.
Hi, I'm just here politely suppressing my urge to squeel with excitement.
Do not mind me.
No Doom
Only Action.
Depends on what your goals are with it, honestly. I like to give most of ours a lead time of around a month and a half.

When you've been running and judging for jams for nearly a decade, you learn to either optimize your workflow, or get real comfortable with bulk downloading.
I showed a few curious jammers the output of the python I used to capture, catalog and verify all of the #Spooktober2025 submissions.
Clever shimmer effect on the card!
Hey there. I run a visual novel development community and I'm the host of a halloween themed VN development competition. If you're into Discord, you can get a ton of feedback, help and more from DevTalk.

I mean, you know what I'm gonna say. Go make visual novels.
That's not to say my transition and gender aren't important to me, but after I figured it out and started hormones it just feels like a settled matter that doesn't need my constant attention.
I actively don't care about other people's gender. I barely care about my own. If someone asks me without context "What are are you?", I will immediately respond "A visual novel dev" or "a programmer" or "A community manager", or "Human, just like you" or "Esper control player" or "A forever DM"
A pitch for those of you canceling Disney+/Hulu this week would be to use that cash and subscribe to PBS/PBS Passport.
Public media is foundational to our democracy and supporting @pbs.org is just about the best value for your dollar. Plus, there are so many British mysteries!!!
Reminds me of an article I read a while ago about the RNC being Grindr's superbowl. The odds of many of them being in the closet feels pretty high.
He doth protest too much, and such.
chongoblog Aug 22, 2019 Can't wait for, like, 2025 when we look back on the 2018/2019 era and say "hey, remember when we were all really freaking depressed? That was a crazy time! Glad we aren't like that anymore" Hey, ampersketch-art May 9, 2025 chongoblog May 10, 2025 Don't say anything
Man...
The limit is mostly there to curb abuse of VAs and prevent devs from over scoping.
I would double check your line count and see how much it's over, then reach out to me and we can talk about it.
Does it have a status monitor somewhere separate to the site? Like an official health page?
I'm convinced I should stop doing stuff, for the sake of Itch and everyone else.
Itch is down???
Again????
Please make a new one every single panel.
Inject it into my veins.
My favorite part is Samus-vision puttint her in a different shirt entirely.
Now some of you are probably asking "What's that thing about the $800.00?"
I hide bits of lore about our community and mascots all over the place, and I think it's very, very funny.
Also I hate how these previews get rendered.
Now that Itch is stable again:
My Spooky Effects pack is out!

This marks our 13th release into the 'Make Visual Novels!' set of assets and costs only $8.00(and not $800.00!) for the set of 5 customizable effects.
