[SOLVED] Pygame and Renpy? Some Begginer Questions.

#1 Post by Ekamu »

What version of Pygame does renpy use currently?

Do I import renpy into pygame or do I import pygame into Renpy? or do both work?

Does SDL include Open GL and if so is there a way I can use GLSL in Pygame or Renpy?

What are the limitations in using pygame with renpy if any exist. For example no camera movement?

Any games released that use Pygame? even just a WIP example is fine.

Thanks for the support in advance.

It uses pygame_sdl2, generally something very close to head. Right now, there isn't a good way to use pygame code directly with Ren'Py.

O.K I'll assume since its sdl2 that means python 2.

What about renpy in general? What version of python works with renpy code?
