It's an extremely popular engine for visual novels, to the point where it's fairly safe to assume any given VN is made using Ren'Py. For example, last year's Slay The Princess.


I don't know if that's a given.

Needy Streamer Overload was the big visual novel of 2024 I think, which was Unity.

The most popular modern-ish visual novels I know of, like Fate Grand Order, Dangenronpa, and Ace Attorney, aren't Ren'py.

I feel like Ren'py is in the minority for modern popular visual novels, and it's definitely in the minority if you include re-releases of older visual novels.

I'd expect it to be in the vast majority for independent visual novels.
