I'm having problems getting RenPy Language extension to work
Question:
I’m new to both RenPy and VSC so I might be doing something wrong but the RenPy Language extension doesn’t work for me for some reason. All of the syntax comes up as error and it seems to me that the problem might be that the .rpy file doesn’t get recognized for some reason since .py files that I use with the Python extension work just fine.
If anyone has any suggestion it would be very appreciated.

It seems that your "Ren’Py Language" extension isn’t enabled.
My file tree on the left likes this. You can see the Ren’Py icon on the left of .rpy files:
extension enabled
When I disabled this extension, The icon changes to Python:
extension disabled
Opening screens.rpy, the lint is for python so it’s full of errors, which is just like yours:
lint doomed
So your Ren’Py extension may not be installed properly. Check it out.
The extension I’m using is LuqueDaniel.languague-renpy. You can follow this official guide to install extensions: https://code.visualstudio.com/learn/get-started/extensions
The solution ended up being Ren’Py as the Language Mode. Because I have both it and Python installed, VSC picked Python to read .rpy files so nothing was working.
