Hey HN, I built a simple visual novel creator using a combination of tools such as Flux, LLM APIs and three.js. You can describe your game concept ("I am a knight sitting in a bar with a mysterious witch who only speaks in riddles") and mangobox will generate the characters, plot, environment, etc.
Current solutions to build VNs such as Ren'Py involve using a python library and distributing an executable. It requires a decent amount of technical knowledge which makes building VNs difficult unless you are a programmer. While my MVP doesn't cover even a small fraction of what Ren'Py does, my hope is to slowly achieve feature parity.
After an early access launch, my average session time across all users is ~1 hour. Hope you enjoy!
