The story aspect of the game is designed to be user-friendly, allowing players to easily manage dialogues, characters, and events through a clear interface. Users can insert blank story events to run scripts without reconfiguring scenes, and the logic-based system enables varied outcomes based on player choices. Overall, the interface keeps players in control of their narrative while minimizing the need for extensive typing.
- “To build your visual novel in ifvn, you just have to add your dialogues, characters, backgrounds, sounds; and handle the progress and events of the story with the variety of commands and conditions included.”
- “A feature that I really like is the program's interface; everything is in view, such as chapters, episodes, and their content. You never lose control of your story while building it.”
- “A potentially confusing feature of the interface is the fact that you have to insert a story event in order to run scripts or certain effects.”
- “It took me a while to realize the story event can be blank (it defaults to the last one used), so if you need to run scripts on a scene that is already set up, you can insert a new, blank story event per branch in an if statement, for example, without setting up the whole scene again.”
- “Logic can be used to determine story outcomes, using variables and conditions, all just click and go.”
