    Blade Engine Philosophy

    One of the advantages of Blade is its simplicity.

    One of Blade Engine's objective is to be a tool that is easy to create basic Visual Novel for creators who are not exactly a technical wizard, and for those creators who simply wants to concentrate on story and contents of Visual Novel rather than having advanced technical customizations.

    BE offers basic Visual Novel features such as:

  • Display images / character
  • Display text and message
  • Generate background music, sound and voice
  • Generate story progress selection

    Our philosophy is that just like Manga seeks its maximum creative possibility with only pen and paper, Visual Novel do so with image, text and sound.
    Blade Engine is an engine designed truly based on the primary concept of Visual Novel.
