Visual Novel Maker

[NarikoStudios]

Hey, does anyone know when Visual Novel Maker is out it says Autumn on Steam but we're already in Autumn for ages so does anyone have a specific release date?


thanks Id like to know roughly when its out so I can save up my money to afford it.

 

[jupitersdaughter]

autumn doesn't end until the end of November. I'd recommend getting something like dino builder which is basically the same thing tbh and has been out for a while so it's been bug tested and has a large userbase. 

 

[Plueschkatze]

I'd love to know when it's coming out, too!


Otherwise there would also be ren'py which is free as far as I remember. 

 

[Maidlyn]

I second ren'py, it is great for a free program.

I will stop you lol...tyranno builder is no that nice and is TOTALLY not the same than Visual Maker where it's handle the possibility to actually extends the way your game will work while Tyranno can't it's hardcoded as f*ck.

So wait for Visual Novel Maker or get one already out? ><


Confused


I was waiting for the Degica one as i'm confident i'll be able to use it as I've used other makers RPG Maker for example obviously


Also not sure if Art I got made for RPG Maker games would be aloud to be used on VN Maker as it's made by same people but definitely would not work on other ones mentioned which would cost me more money to have them redrawn just because of a new license

rpg maker and VN are  not the same author  it's archeia and another person who made the software.


and how I know? I got teased of how it's works long time ago.

 

[NarikoStudios]

Well I still trust Archeia more as her stuff is always looking so good and it would be cool to buy something from someone I knew as helped community rather than another of the mentioned ones. if that makes sence atall.


Is it similar to how RPG works?

This is not really the place to discuss when a resource pack will be coming out, but I can see how it got here.


What this is definitely not the place for, is discussing non-RM programs.  This is the official site for RM and Degica products. We do not permit the discussion of other engines.

 

[NarikoStudios]

Sorry that other engines were mentioned I just posted here to find out when VN Maker was out but where do I put this if not here?

You can discuss the engine on the Steam forums: http://steamcommunity.com/app/495480/discussions/

Moving this to Product Discussion and Support.

 

[Archeia]

I just created a new VN Maker boards. I didn't think people would be asking a lot about it here so

 

[NarikoStudios]

Thanks could you send me a link or is it on here?


Edit: found it


Can you say when a release date is?

 

[Milennin]

@Archeia, does this mean it's now allowed to discuss Visual Novel Maker and share screenshots from the program (once its out) in General Discussion and Game Mechanics Design?

 

[Canini]

Brilliant!


It is great to know that the engine will support plugins and scripts. Just what I was hoping for

share screenshots from the program (once its out) in General Discussion and Game Mechanics Design

These should go in Game and Map Screenshots, as normal.


As for discussing VN in General Discussion and Game Mechanics Design, as always it depends on the subject matter.  Some topics could go there, others, like "How do I...?" queries properly belong in the VN forum, in the same way as those sorts of questions currently go in the appropriate support forum for the engine being used.  My guess (and that's all it is) is that many VNs won't have 'Game Mechanics' in quite the same way as other games.  But we'll have to wait and see what people come up with.

well hehe the cool thing's about VN maker it's having the possibility to have open game code xD so we could technically like implement a lots of features
