Thank you for downloading this asset pack!
This is my first time creating such a kit, so the template code (for Ren'Py) may be a little messy.
All of the assets in GUI Assets can be uploaded to replace files already in your GUI folder-- with the exception of the menu-title images. If you wish to implement these in your game, there are a few steps you must take:
- Open up screens.rpy and search gui.title_text_size
- Add the following
color "#FF000000" - Find each screen you would like to replace with the title image (About, Load, Save, Help, etc)
- Add the following before the "style" code:
add "gui/titles/about-title.png" pos(70, 25) xysize(338,225)- Ensure the path file between the quotation marks matches what you have in your game's GUI folder
- After going through all of the game-menu screens and adding the correct images, save and test your game!
Hopefully this is helpful to you. Thank you again!

Delicious, would eat every piece of this UI!
Thank you so much!
This is a really cute GUI and I love the warm palette. My only complaint is that the default grey color is really strenuous to look at when it's on the red but it still fits perfectly everywhere else!
Thank you!! And you've pinpointed one of my struggles when making this (lol... I've gone through so many reds/font colours trying to make it work 💔).
I earnestly appreciate the feedback and hope to revisit this to amend it soon! ^u^
