Opening Credits?

#1 Post by JayBlue »

How to I get images or text to show up before the title screen? I want to show a few logos before anyone starts playing my game.

You want the splashscreen label. https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/label.ht ... ial-labels
Usually, people include the splashscreen label before the start label, but you can even put it in a separate rpy file. Ren'Py will look for it.
An example of a splashscreen would be

Code: Select all

label splashscreen:
    scene black
    show logo1
    with dissolve
    pause # add a number if you don't want an infinite pause (say, pause 4 for a 4 seconds pause)
    scene black
    show logo2
    with dissolve
    pause
    scene black
    show credits
    with dissolve
    pause
    return

No, sorry! You must be mistaking me for someone else.
