Showcase
How does this work
NarrativeCraft works thanks to the amazing open source project Ink, a narrative scripting language to write dialogs and create branching patterns. Text first, logic later.
Features
NarrativeCraft is an all-in-one system, meaning that you have everything by default.
Compatibility with other mods requires installing addons.
- Cutscenes
- Player recording
- Dialogs rendering (on screen or a character speaking)
- Camera angles for character dialog focus
- Interactions with trigger zones and clickable points
- Characters and NPCs
- Full management of your story
- Multiple locales in one world
- Choices
- Saves
- Main screen (new game, continue...)
- Multiplayer
About Multiplayer
NarrativeCraft is singleplayer first, meaning that it is mainly developed for singleplayer. However, multiplayer is supported, but it does not mean co-op, it means that you can play a story, show cutscenes, display characters or NPCs to a single player, so you can create more immersion for your server.
Getting started
If you want to start learning NarrativeCraft, take a look at the documentation; you'll be guided there to start your first story and learn the fundamentals of the mod.
