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
