since this tool renders the text multiple times to make the motions seem run asynchronously with dialogue, I found the issue of it printing history multiple times. I will correct the code in an hour to fix the issue.
It can be simply done by setting the flag of storing history false while rendering the text additionally multiple times, and then returning it back to True.

I have already said that the text renderer should be out, but I have something more.

The voices here probably run through the sfx Channel, but they should do it through the Voice Channel.

There should also be a mode for anime sprites that only have 3 different mouth positions. Is a bit difficult to adjust these to the 8 positions or how many that is.

If it's possible, maybe even livecomposite support because I actually use that instead of layeredimages as I didn't warm up to it, but I think it wouldn't be a problem if I switched to layered.

In the current implementation of the code, there is an issue where the sequential execution of the lipsync function gets prematurely terminated when specific keys (Return/Enter or Space) are held down. This behavior occurs because the key release detection is not well implemented.

Details:
The lipsync function is responsible for animating lip sync by displaying mouth shapes at appropriate times along with dialogue. To control the playback of this animation, the code checks for specific key presses (Return/Enter or Space), mouse clicks, and touch interactions. The goal is to pause or stop the animation when user input or interactions are detected.

However, when the user holds down the Return/Enter or Space key, the code incorrectly interprets this as a continuous key press. As a result, the lipsync function prematurely exits, causing the animation to end abruptly. This is not the intended behavior, as the animation should only stop when the key is released.

Possible Solution:
To address this issue, the code logic for detecting key presses and releases should be modified to ensure that the lipsync function continues its sequential execution until the key is actually released. This can be achieved by properly tracking key states (pressed or released) and making decisions based on those states. When a key is held down, the code should not trigger the termination of the lipsync function until the key is released.
