• Dialogue system with scriptable objects

  Another option if you don't want to implement it yourself though is to use an already built library. I've been playing with YarnSpinner a little bit recently and I'm liking it so far. I can't give much more details than that, but it's maybe worth a look. At least for some reference. Source: 12 months ago

• Dialogue System Implementations

  I looked into other solutions, but haven't tested them yet: (Ink)[https://www.inklestudios.com/ink/] (Yarn)[https://yarnspinner.dev/]. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to make a Visual Novel 2D and 3D Hybrid, solo?

  I am currently working on a 3d Unity game that uses a classic visual novel interface for conversations with NPCs. I am using Yarnspinner for the VN parts. It's a very powerful and flexible middleware that allows you to write your dialogue trees in a very simple domain-specific language. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to allow replies in dialogue system (unity + C#)

  After writing several own dialogue solutions, I decided to use Yarnspinner as a dialogue scripting solution for my latest project. It's really powerful, flexible and easy to use. I see no reason why I would ever want to invent my own again. It comes with a sample dialogue UI, but the website has a guide for how to create your own. Source: over 1 year ago

  Find ways to tell those stories without complex mechanics. Visual novels and text adventures are a great example. If you have a budget, hire a good artist and maybe look into voice over actors. If you're short on budget, look into AI to generate images and even to do voice over. As for tools you have Twine, Ink and YarnSpinner, to name s few and, in terms of game engine, don't lose too much time picking one.... Source: over 1 year ago

• Dioxus 0.5: Web, Desktop, Mobile Apps in Rust

  Food for thought: I have started, stopped, rewrote, given up, and restarted development of a visual novel engine over and over again. My vision is something kind of like Ren'Py[1] but with cross-device game saves, cleaner packaging, improved DRM, better support for complex nonlinear plot development, and better tools for developing game mechanics that go beyond clicking through paragraphs of text.

• Voyages in the Domain of Artificial Ingenuity: Unveiling the Enigma of Stable Diffusion and the Odyssey of Comfy UI

  This marks the second phase of my expedition into the realm of Artificial Intelligence, the realm of Stable Diffusion, and the intricate domain of Ren’py. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• So i want to develop a visual novel... What do i need?

  Haven't used it but I hear nothing but good things about Ren'Py for Visual Novels. Source: 10 months ago

• Parsing the script failed: expected statement define e = Character("Eileen", color="#FFFFFF")

  You could also try download Renpy 8.1 from the renpy.org to see if that helps if it is something with that copy of Renpy 8.0.3. Source: 11 months ago

• How can I (28M) enter the gaming industry with my disability?

  You mentioned that your interests lay in more story/narrative roles? Get yourself a good book on Narrative Design, grab Ink+Unity or, better yet, Ren'py (renpy.org) and get to making some Narrative Games! Show your skills in not only writing but implementation. Source: 12 months ago
