Ren'Py is a free, 2D, and cross-platform engine that helps you make story-based games including visual novels and simulation games. It uses a scripting language based on Python.
Symbol of Sacrifice (SOS) is a High Fantasy Sci-Fi visual novel with a heavy jRPG inspiration driven by player choice. It tells the tale of the epic clash between two civilizations in their desperate attempt at survival. Our story hones in on the humble beginnings of the cataclysm in our heroes' small village of Alezia, where we follow them through the tragedy that befalls their family and their journey toward redemption. During which a vital decision must be made. A sacrifice or a trade. The choice is yours as the player, and the game will be split into three unique storylines with different encounters, locations, battles, endings, and more based on your decision.
The Symbol of Sacrifice demo is a major step in the development of the full game. It shows the first 3 chapters of the game and gives a taste of the unique battle system and cinematic storytelling that players can expect from the gull game. As a demo this is still a work in progress and with the planned onboarding of a publisher the final version is likely to be improved. The demo is an especially important milestone for Umbrella Labs as their first public product as a studio, but stay tuned, there's plenty more in the works!
Umbrella Labs is a small software studio based in the US. Khanondrum, the founder of UmbrellaLabs, started crafting the Symbols universe in February of 2023. Like most indie-devs he has been a gamer all his life, from binging jrpgs as a kid to competing in league of legends tournament in college, gaming was always a part of his life. Together with a team of talented developers, directors, artists, voice actors, musicians, and more, he assembled a small cast that rivals the talents of AAA studios.
"We have a game, a world, we're building that we plan to be bigger than just the SoS visual novel. We hope you come along for the journey and watch the Symbols universe unfold over the coming years!" - Khanondrum, CEO of Umbrella Labs

Hey, can someone help me with the Ren'Py engine? It's just that everytime I type new code into the script.rpy, I get an error saying "Tab characters are not allowed in Ren'py scripts." Can someone help me?
Could you show me the code? If it's code that's trying to define an item like "image nblnk = im.Scale("nblnk.png", 320, 575)", that HUGE space you see right there after "image nblnk" is a tab space (EDIT: Okay, so indiedb takes out the space, but the space is as big as when you hit tab in the script editor). Usually it changes tabs into spaces but when defining something if you use Tab it marks it as an error. If it's not that that's the issue, show me a bit of the code and I can work on it for ya.
Make sure every line of code defining something only has one space between each variable, like so:
"variable nickname = "realname.filetype", where variable is the type of file or action, such as image, play music, play sound, or with (EDIT: with is used in other places, NOT with an "=" sign. My bad. the "play music" or "play sound" however are almost like that, just without the "=" sign). If you don't know what those are, the engine itself when downloaded has a tutorial game that explains pretty much everything (except the more complex errors.) This is just an add-on to what I said above, if it still doesn't fix it, I'll gladly check your code.
If this place is inappropriate to say this, please forgive me and delete the comment. If not, I would be very happy if it actually helps: I am planning on releasing a couple of longer stories as visual novels.. games, with this engine. I am a writer mainly, and not the best artist. I would love if, if someone is an artist or has interest and experience in the creation of artwork, would be interested in working with me, they could contact me via PM.
Again, I apologize if this is not the correct place to post this, but on the forums things like that are lost within hours with no results so I figured I would try my luck here.
Thanks in advance. I love this engine :)
I wouldnt mind helping with the artwork! You can reach me at Lucr3tcia.deviant art.com and we can talk about it xD
ren'py engine. Whoever has played a game similar to this engine, please send me a message. It sounds very familiar.
(dark humor laugh)
its a bit saddening to see many ren'py games releasing with a price up to $20, even when the arts, story, and or "gameplay" is not that good.
-not to be compared, look at Katawa Shoujo being one of the greatest, yet totally free
Yes.
how download engines sorry im new cant see download :L
Go to Renpy.org and look at "How do I get Ren'Py?"
