Life and game design career[edit]

Sanzenkai Setsuna awakens on the shore of isolated island Urashima with no memories of his past. Befriending three local girls, Rinne, Karen, and Sara, Setsuna's quest to discover the secrets of Urashima and how they tie into his own past - and future - begins.

At the age of twenty, Riva began his career, designing small-scale games for the Italian market. He took a seven-year sabbatical until 2003, when he discovered the shareware distribution model and created the sportsmanagement video game Universal Soccer Manager using BlitzBasic.

He moved to C/C++ language and published 10 more games under the Winter Wolves label, then opened a new company, Tycoon Games, on which he has published 6 games: the space war game Supernova 2: Spacewar, the dating sim game Summer Session, the visual novelsHeileen and Bionic Heart, College Romance: Rise Of The Little Brother, and Spirited Heart. For the games Summer Session and Heileen, he moved away from C/C++ to embrace Python programming language and in particular the tool Ren'Py.

This is a list of visual novel engines.

Digital Novel Markup Language[edit]

Digital Novel Markup Language (DNML) is one of the first scripting languagegame engines for creating visual novels, also known as interactive fiction games. DNML was developed using C++ by a Japanese programmer known by their Internet name, Karin. The initial release was in 1998. The programming structure is similar to HTML, which made it easy to produce dōjin games. DNML was succeeded by software like NScripter, KiriKiri and Ren'Py.^[1]

There have been various attempts to create a more modern DNML interpreter. However the only known successful project is DNML Midori,^[2] a full reimplantation of DNML that has several features of its own. While it's is free to use, it's not open source. Twinora mac os. As of 2021, it was last updated in 2019 and development seems to be concluded.

Talefab.com[edit]

Talefab.com is a web-based visual novel engine^[3] written and published by Szabó Sándor István in 2021. The project's main focus is on coding-free game creation with the help of a WebGL based visual editor and player.

Unlike other visual novel game engines, Talefab.com is a web-based platform, therefore the engine doesn't need to be downloaded as a standalone application. Games created on Talefab.com can be published online, on the portal's game store.

The project is empowered by Phaser 3 and WebGL, while for backend request a LAMP system is used. Talefab.com can be used also for creating educational games, escape rooms or other RPG games, since it supports item interactions and conditioning.

The only available plan is free, but at the end of 2021 a pro membership is planned to be released with premium features. Currently the game engine can be used for creating free games only, monetization is not possible.

KiriKiri[edit]

Games 2018 Play

KiriKiri (吉里吉里) is a scriptingengine^[3][5] by Japanese developer 'w.dee', initially released in 1998. It is almost exclusively used with the KAG (KiriKiri Adventure Game System) framework as a visual novel engine.^[6] Usually, the package of the two components is regarded as the whole engine, and referenced with major version numbers. Thus, the current version is called KiriKiri2/KAG3. It is available under the GNU General Public License, though commercial licenses can be acquired if somebody wishes to expand the software without disclosing the changes.

KiriKiri is often used as a more modern and expandable replacement of the older NScripter engine.^[7][8][5] It has been used in both dōjin and commercial visual novels, the most well known of which are TYPE-MOON's Fate/stay night and Fate/hollow ataraxia. Another notable visual novel that is known to be implemented using this engine is 1999 Christmas Eve (1999クリスマスイブ). The Nekopara game series, available on Steam, also uses a modified version of Kirikiri.^[9]

For KiriKiri2 and Kirikiri Z's implementation of KAG there is a module called 鱧天 (Hamotem).^[10] which provides a myriad of plugins and a ready made template to build games on. As TyranoBuilder is to TyranoScript, there are several programs which create a graphical editor on top of the KAG script. The most well known of these is NVLMaker,^[11] which also has a cloud platform.^[12]

Due to a lack of updates since October 2010, from 2013 onward the code has been forked and continued as Kirikiri Z (吉里吉里Z).^[13]

NScripter[edit]

NScripter is a visual novel engine^[3] written by Naoki Takahashi. Due to its simplicity and its liberal license (while it is not open-source software, royalty-free commercial use is permitted), it quickly became popular in Japan, and was used for a number of high-profile commercial and dōjin titles, such as HaniHani and Tsukihime.^[8]

Games 2018 Wiki

The original NScripter is closed-source and only available for Windows. A number of cross-platform clones have been written, the best-known being ONScripter,^[16] an example of free and open-source software implementation. Its popularity among the visual novel localisation community is attributed to the ease of modifying the engine to support languages other than Japanese.^[16] It strives to maintain compatibility with visual novels designed for NScripter.^[17]ONScripter is based on the Simple Directmedia Layer (SDL) library, and can thus be used to run NScripter games on platforms supported by SDL, such as OS X, Linux, PSP and the iPod.

ONScripter-EN is a branch of ONScripter that is maintained separately by the English-language community, for convenience and for ease of introducing enhancements that are suited to the community. PONScripter (abbreviation for 'Proportional-OnScripter') is a fork of ONScripter-EN. Its stated goal is to provide an easy porting target for translation projects, with emphasis on Western languages.^[17]PONScripter has made heavy modifications to the ONScripter-EN base code, and is deliberately backwards-incompatible. PONScripter was originally maintained by Peter 'Haeleth' Jolly. Since September 2009, it is maintained by Mion of Sonozaki Futago-tachi, the Higurashi no Naku Koro ni translation group.^[18]

KScripter is a Flash-based scripting engine that was inspired by NScripter but uses ActionScript and SWF.^[19][20][21]

Ren'Py[edit]

The Ren'Py Visual Novel Engine is a free software engine. Ren'Py is a portmanteau of ren'ai (恋愛), the Japanese word for 'love', a common element of games made using Ren'Py; and Python, the programming language that Ren'Py runs on. The easy to learn script language allows anyone to efficiently write large visual novels, while its Python scripting is enough for complex simulation games. Ren'Py has proved attractive to western hobbyists; over 1000 games use the Ren'Py engine, nearly all in English. Visual novels, kinetic novels, role-playing games, simulation games, and many other games can be made with Ren'py.^[22][23]

TyranoBuilder[edit]

TyranoBuilder is a commercial visual novel engine that supports creating projects as web apps, as well as native app for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS. Most of its functionality are available via its GUI, without resorting to scripting. The dark pigeon mac os. It is based on TyranoScript, which is a free web focused engine that is in Japanese, although a partial English version exists. The syntax which both TyranoBuilder and TyranoScript use is very similar to the scripting language of KirKirki, although not as flexible. A unique feature of TyranoBuilder is its support for Live 2D, which most other engines lack.^[24][25]

Suika 2[edit]

Suika 2 is a free and open source visual novel engine. It supports Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android. Owing to the way it is written it is very easy to port off other platforms. In terms of syntax it is a mix of Kirikiri and Nscripter, utilising a more traditional syntax. It is one of the few Japanese visual novel engines that natively support English text. When compared to other engines it is very simple, however a user can customize it with relatively little effort. It is notable for its extremely low hardware requirements, being capable of running smoothly in a system with no proper graphical acceleration. The engine was first released in 2001, being bundled with a visual editor similar in function to Tyranobuilder's GUI. Suika 2 was released in 2016, with all of its components being rewritten except for its image processing components. The engine can be downloaded from either its website or Github page.^[26][27]
