Remember 2000s era flash dating sims? This is a framework to make games like that but in Ren'Py.

The framework is complete with filler graphics and an example project to show you how it works, and an instruction guide in both a txt file and commented into one of the rpy files. May not be the most well organized, but future updates will hopefully make it a bit more intuitive.

Bare minimum only basic knowledge of how Ren'Py works is required (dialogue, variables, images, labels), but more in-depth customization will require understanding of screens and screen language. 

Just to show one way it could look with a simple reskin, here's an example using the GUI from my own game, Moonlit Veil:

In order to use you must credit and if possible link back to this page. Commercial games are fine. Leave a comment to let me know if you use this! I'd love to play whatever you make.
