Coding with Ray

Let's have fun learning Ren'Py!

Making your Visual Novel should be an enjoyable experience. However, sometimes coding some stuff just makes you want to pull out your hair, especially if you're a beginner.

Coding with Ray guides you to learn Ren'Py in a fun way! With included dummy assets, you can have a step-by-step practice, see results fast, and understand the key concepts better. This project will cover essential subjects in VN development beyond the Ren'Py tutorial. See the full modules covered below.

For more advanced developers, this project also provides ready-to-use plugins you can drop straight into your game.
