How to add an icon in the game?

#1 Post by Jogabba »

Hi, I'm a pretty new to Ren'py, so I think this should be an easy question.

I want to put an icon in a corner on the screen that links to my website. This icon should be visible and clickable through all the game, except for some scenes.

Anyone could explain me how could I do this?

Thanks in advance!

The "icon" you refer to should be an imagebutton (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html#imagebutton) inside a new screen, which will perform the action (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_a ... ml#OpenURL) you want.
That new screen which contains the imagebutton (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens. ... n-language) can be shown or hidden whenever you want.

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

For simplicity / design aesthetic, it might be prudent to simply place it in the quick menu.
