python - How would I spawn many of the same sprite in pygame without assigning each one to its own variable?

Question

I am currently trying to make a game based on the 8-Bit Sonic the Hedgehog games, and I need to spawn multiple of one kind of sprite. This would be fine if it weren't for the size of the levels, meaning that if I want a decent amount of anything I would need to create hundreds of variables to store the sprite. Is there any way around this? Here is one of the sprites:

class ring:
    def __init__(self, x, y, frame):
        self.image = [pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring1'), pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring2.png'),
                      pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring3'), pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring4.png'),
                      pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring5'), pygame.image.load('assets/ring/ring6.png')]
        self.x = x
        self.y = y
        self.rect = pygame.Rect(x, y, 14, 16)
        self.frame = frame

    def render(self):
        screen.blit(self.image[self.frame])
        pygame.draw.rect(screen, red, self.rect)

Game engines and websites like Scratch allow you to "clone" a sprite, is there something similar here?
