Amazing app! I love to use it to play visual novels and it works amazingly! I have always wanted to play renpy on mobile but could never figure out how but now I can play it! This app is 10/10 5 stars this is completely worth it!:DStarlyla
Awesome!
Awesome Ren’Py player! No crashes or problems. Only thing that doesn’t make sense to me is that spark seems to auto save games, but if I go to the place where Spark displays those saves, there is no load button. So I can’t understand what is the purpose of those auto saves if they can’t be loaded.
If I could suggest features, I’d love to have a editable profanity filter, that could bleep words in the game dialogs, with wildcards to catch even bad words that are misspelled. And a button to hide dialog and menus even on games that don’t have a “hide” button built in. And the option to change the game name (the name that Spark thinks is the name of the game, cuz it isn’t always correct), and the option to set thumbnail images for each game. These features would be awesome.needHymn
Better every day!
The dev is engaged with his users, rolls out constantly nice updates. Some of the best compatibility I’ve ever seen and has made enjoying RenPy so much better. Even mouse and keyboard shortcuts work if you have a Magic Keyboard or something similar.KennethCarroll
