Alucard Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I'm going to assume you aren't a programmer? I think there are a free engines which will pretty much support a vn pretty much out of the box. Don't have their names off the top of my head. Most important would be art and writing.

Flutterz Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 As far as I know http://www.renpy.org/ is the go-to free VN engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanpachi Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 There is also Novelty, which doesn't require programming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantanoice Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 If you are inexperienced with programming and don't want to look further into it, then I'd recommend Twine over anything else. It lets you simply write an interactive story that gets turned into a webpage, so it's very simple to make your product and then distribute to other people.Ren'Py is also an option like others have suggested. The good part about that is if you do want to look further into programming, then you can because it runs on Python so any Python code will work in it.As for content, I'd love to see some stuff come out of Indonesia, because it's a culture that you don't hear too much about. I'm from Australia so we get a little bit of Indonesian stuff here because we're closeby, but I imagine places like the US wouldn't get much, if any at all. Don't expect to make a lot of money because visual novels are a niche product in the west (even moreso for a unique culture like Indonesia), but I definitely support as much diversity as we can get. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krill Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 yeah here in the usa the indonesian culture is pretty much a unknown. we have entire areas of major cities devoted to china, japan, korea and others even vietnam and thailand but you never hear about indonesia . i personally would love to play a vn or two set in the indonesian culture or history preferably with a supernatural element thrown in to learn of the cultures myths and legends a bit as well.
