I am confused, what do you mean by "dark mode"? Created games themselve have a lot of pre-made styles, half of which are dark. If you are talking about editing scripts, that depends on editor you chose to use.

Yeah, I mean the editing scripts where you are programming the whole game. It's white at the moment and I would prefer it to be darker because that is more relaxing for the eyes ^^

That depends on the editor you use. Atom IIRC in the dark mode from the start, for example.

Maybe there are some plugins or themes for your editor?
I'm also not sure if it's dealing well with Renpy code since it's not supported. You could change editor for something more modern (jEdit didn't have any new version like 9 or 10 years?). I'm using VSC for Renpy projects and it has many dark themes to choose from.
