Ren'Py Fantasy GUI Kit

This is a fantasy GUI kit for visual novels made with the Ren'Py engine. It's designed to work with games in the size 1920 x 1080 pixels and will fit nicely for visual novels in the fantasy/magical genre.

Contents

Comes with graphics for all the default screens such as main menu, game menu, preferences etc.

After purchasing, you will get two .zip files: one contains only the images, the other contains a Ren'Py project containing configuration and styles that make the kit look and behave like they do in the screenshots. 

The main menu image has text on it for showcasing purposes, but you can modify the game_menu.png or game_menu_plain.png files to contain your own logo/text and save a copy of that as the new main menu image.

A ctc (click-to-continue) image is included and animated in the example project.

! Important Notes !

Please note that not all GUI images provided as a standard by Ren'Py have been replaced in this package, some still have the default look. Read the "list of contents" below to see what comes with it.

The screenshots provided on this product page uses the setup code provided in the "example base project with settings" that comes with the product. Just using the images provided will not provide the same look alone!

Some edits have been made to the screens.rpy file as there was no way to use override styles. Those edits are exclusive to:

• screen navigation
• screen file_slots
  

You can find the changes in the file by searching for comments with the text "CUSTOM CODE".
