Tuesday JS visual novel engine

is a simple web-based, free and open-source visual novel editor that can be used in a web browser. It is written in JavaScript without using any third party libraries and thus does not require additional software installation. The engine uses standard HTML5 document elements such as div and img. This allows the use of any media format supported by browsers including vector graphics svg, gif animations and css styles.


The editor is designed to create interactive fiction, graphic or kinetic novels without knowledge of programming languages. It uses a drag and drop interface for scene editing and to make interfaces. The story script is displayed as a flowchart node with all plot elements and branches. This makes it easier to navigate and helps you create a great story with many plot options.


The editor is available as a standalone application for Android devices and desktops. All versions are fully compatible with each other and have the same interface.

Translate tool


The built-in translation editing tool allows you to quickly add a new translation and edit all the texts in your project without leaving the editor. In addition, it displays the number of completed translations for each language.
JSON


A story script has all the elements stored in a JSON structure. Almost any programming language can work with this format. This allows you to port your script to another engine or platform. The editor has a built-in tool to work with JSON. This will allow you to edit the entire contents of the script or just the selected element.
