Raspberry Ren'Py
🕑 Added 2017-06-23 03:37:44 +0000 UTC Just wanted to share a quick screenshot of Ren'Py running on a Raspberry Pi. I took a couple days off from working on Ren'Py 7 to port Ren'Py to the Raspberry Pi 3. While it's not perfect yet, it's working, and even takes advantage of the Raspberry Pi's onboard video acceleration.I'm not sure where this is going, exactly. The Raspberry Pi is quite limited compared to other hardware that runs Ren'Py - you will need to think about it when you're designing your game, to make sure it works well on it. I can't see adding Raspberry Pi support to every game - it wouldn't be worth making game downloads larger. But it might make sense to have this as an optional download that can be used by interested creators.
Once again, I'd like to thank our sponsors - thanks to you, getting a Pi 3 was an easy decision.

Should that version be called Ren'Pi rhymes with Sempai

Hopefully I'll get something out soonish you can test with. Sometimes performance is great, sometimes it's not - I'm thinking it might have something to do with either texture loading or SD card access.

Hooray! I'm hoping to use a Pi to demo my game at trade shows, so this is RIGHT up my alley. Looking forward to more development of this version!
