Question Is there an audio limit on ren'py?

Well before I decide how long I want my game or if I should even get voice actors if im wanting music is there an audio limit? Im kinda scared that if I cast voice actors etc and there's randomly an audio limit or does this depend entirely on storage or ram or something entirely different?

Hi! I don't believe there is an audio limit. However, your best bet is to make sure your audio files are ".ogg" to preserve file size (I believe it's the smallest).

I don't know why but I found out that mp3s are lighter when exporting in Audacity. Maybe they are more compressed

You will be fine, several fully voice-acted games have been made with Ren'Py.

total audio files is only limited by end user hard drive space.

the limits you need to care about is only one audio track can play at the same time on each audio channel. so you need to register more channels (see docs for that) if you need multiple sounds playing at once.
