A sorta framework project made to turn ren'py into a dedicated comic reader. Allows you to show and add pages to a comic with minimal extra effort. Within the sample project is just a couple bouncing ball panels to show how the different page types work since I'm too lazy to draw a comic for it. might add one later. 

I might modify and update the framework more in the future if need be, the system was made for my own personal project originally so I thought it might be good to release it incase someone else wanted to make a comic in Ren'py and didn't want to code every page.

Features:

  • Easily Add Pages
  • Create Special Pages
    • Animated pages
      • Looping animated pages
      • Sound can be synced to animations
    • Scrolling pages
    • Movie/Cutscene pages
  • Modify Special Pages
    • Change fps of animated pages
    • Change scrolling page start position and scroll speed
    • Change transitions between pages
  • Chapter Screen
    • Automatically locks unviewed chapters
    • Expands automatically when chapter or book folders are added

I wanted to make a comic viewer that would flip through images kind of like a slide show, but realized a comic of half decent length would be a pain to make since I'd need to manually add every single page, so I made this thing to add pages automatically so I wouldn't need to type anything out of laziness.

Instructions on how to use and name files so that they are displayed by the comic reader are included in the help screen.
