NovelStudio : Visual Novel Engine (noCode, NoDrawing)

[Nikubi]

Hello everyone,

I wanted to share a project that’s not mine and could greatly assist those of you interested in game creation but lacking programming or graphic design skills. It’s called NovelStudio, a new visual novel editor set to be released soon.

Several videos showcasing the software’s diverse possibilities are already out, and I must admit, it looks incredibly intriguing. With a range of graphical assets available, like characters and backgrounds, even for those not artistically inclined, it’s a major plus. Moreover, importing one’s own assets is possible.

What’s great is the array of tools for scene creation. They appear intuitive and user-friendly, requiring no prior programming knowledge.

I’m certain this could interest many of you. If you’d like to learn more, here’s the website and YouTube channel associated with the project.

This looks cool and very useful, but I think the challenge will be that the base sprites won’t give many options for “larger” characters

I agree with you, it hasn’t been developed for that purpose. While there’s a possibility to distort the sprites, I don’t think it would work well for making characters ‘larger.’ However, I still believe it could serve as a solid sprite foundation that could be refined using another software and then re-imported into the program.

that still requires programming knowledge, it doesn’t require text based coding knowledge. You still need to do the problem solving and logic for programming.
