After a couple of months slipped by I finally finished the last few touches I was wanting to include. It has a mix of semi new features and tweaks to old stuff. Check it out! The update is available in the engine, or at this link: http://pywright.dawnsoft.org/updates3/engine/0.974.zip

(The full binaries are not yet updated, so if you don’t have PyWright yet, you’ll have to grab 0.973 first)

The changelog has a detailed list of the fixes, but here are the most important:

• Preliminary gamepad support
• Easier window scaling
• Autosaves, multiple save files
• Expressions to aid coding and eventually help in the AAO converter
• Some protection against easy to make coding mistakes
• More fixes to the downloader

For the future I am thinking of adding more flexible input support and maybe tackling the settings dialog again. That’s the kind of stuff a 1.0 release needs. Other than that, I’ve been working on various tools like the gif2sheet program, something to help find overhanging words on speech bubbles, and the aao converter of course. I’m trying to figure out the best way to bundle this stuff so that others can use them. I have some ideas but haven’t really tackled it as of yet.

My goal is to finish 1.0 this summer. Here’s hoping I make it
