I believe this is called story boarding.
Also, bragging about weird bugs, the typeface used on itch does not render backspaces correctly on my system. And I have no clue as to why. This leadstotextlookinglike this. There are non breakable spaces or whatever they are called. If I manually override the font, it looks correct. Or if I look at it on my phone. Those spaces are not used regularly much, but they appear when copy/pasting a lot, in the editor boxes in comments and game descriptions.
