If you're trying to call the file without needing to declare it like that, the file name itself needs to be
bg night.png instead of just
night.png like you have it currently.
Otherwise defining the image like so:
Code: Select all
image bg night = "/vn art/night.png"
will work as well when you show it later.
Since you have your images in that separate folder it's better to define your images.
Edit:
Looking at it again, it seems like you also haven't defined your speaking characters and such. I'd highly recommend reading through the quickstart guide over at the renpy docs as it has a lot of the info there can be of big help to you!
