So, where can I learn to achieve this? Can somebody point me to the best guides and resources for a beginner? I want to make patches, alter dialogs, correct spelling mistakes etc for games that I enjoy. On youtube there are only tutorials that related to creating visual novels, which has overwhelming information that I don't need.

Since Renpy is a script-based engine, as long as the developer hasn’t "protected" the game assets by packaging them into rpa files or distributing only rpyc files, you can immediately open the rpy files with a text editor and modify them as you wish. If they aren't there, you can use a tool like UnRen.bat to easily extract/decompile these files.

Even if you're not interested in the process of creating an entire game, it's a good idea to take a look at the before venturing into creating mods.
