How To Publish A Ren'py Game

#1 Post by Dollarluigi » Mon Aug 29, 2016 6:14 pm

I may have a little while until I'm done with my current project, but I'm going to need to know how to do this eventually. I've already looked for a tutorial, but all it did was make my head hurt from confusion. I've used other programs for making games, and they don't really need to have more than one step for publishing a game, but from what I've seen for Ren'py, there are appears to be several? I just don't get it.
