What is Pixi’VN?
Pixi’VN is a very versatile and powerful visual novel/2D game engine. It is based on JavaScript/TypeScript and uses the PixiJS library for rendering.
Its great versatility is due to the fact that Pixi’VN is a npm package, that provides various core features to manage story steps, dialogues, character, canvas, variable storage, saving and loading, and much more. This means that it can be used both to create visual novels and to create other types of 2D games (such as Point and Click Adventure Games, RPGs, etc...), with your favorite JavaScript framework (React, Vue, Angular, etc...).
Pixi’VN provides the ability to use Templates to get started quickly. Less experienced developers can use these templates to create a visual novel without much knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript.
With the PixiVNJson implementation you have the option to use various types of narrative languages ??(in addition to JavaScript/TypeScript). Currently you can use the following:
- ink
