And that's not touching simple user-end modification, like removing the text box or extracting the script to self-troubleshoot.

Again, these are the bog-standard settings that Ren'Py has, that somebody with no programming knowledge at all can provide their players. At least it has rollback and the saves have screenshots (though you can't name them). And I might just be daft, but I couldn't find a way to set the text speed to instant. I guess holding Ctrl to skip just unread text is too passe for some people. Skipping text works about as well as a sledgehammer does as a toothpick. Nobody wants unskippable seconds-long transitions they do nothing but make the game a slog to get through. Since the devs clearly insist on using it, at the very least they could bother to do the bare minimum to bring it up to par with the default settings of Ren'Py. Still using this garbage engine, evidently. Why would somebody go out of their way to make something objectively worse?ДЄt least it seems to run OK.
