A downloadable asset pack

6 saves per page too stifling? You could change the grid to add a couple more, or... you could use this script to add A HUNDRED THOUSAND!

...Or just the thirty or so it takes to complete your game.

Features:

  • A single page that expands and contracts dynamically as the player adds and deletes saves.
  • A debug mode.
  • Extremely rudimentary styling. PLEASE make it your own.
    • I will help you. Leave a comment.

Limitations:

  • Although the page is infinitely scrolling, there is only one of them. This means no Auto- or Quick-save pages. Those saves still exist, but they are inaccessible via this interface.
  • Only the first page's worth of old saves will be semi-compatible.
  • Right-click/Escape after loading an old save will still send the player to the old Save screen.

Possible Future Updates:

  • Paginated endless scroll
  • Horizontal mode

How to use:

  • Download the file and add it to the /game/ folder of your Ren'Py project.
  • Edit the Navigation and Quick Menus to direct to file_list instead of save and load.
  • Customize to suit your own GUI.
