Ren'Py Sim Series Part 01: Installing and Set-up

Описание: An introduction to the Ren'Py game engine. We will be covering everything (that I can think of) from the beginning to the end. The video format will consist of a follow-along coding tutorial and ending with an in-depth explanation of what we did and why we did what we did.

This episode contains instructions on installing Ren'Py and a short introduction to data types, indentations, screens, labels, and menus.

I'd like to apologize for the poor audio quality and extremely sudden jump from the first part (follow-along) to the second part (explanation) (timestamp 23:58). I'll be taking these things into account in future videos.
