Tiivistelmä
The aim of this thesis was to study the game making engine, VNMaker. The aim was to create a playable demo using the engine from a beginner’s point of view and to test the effectiveness of VNMaker in assisting game development as a commercially used game engine.
In this project, many core features of VNMaker were explored in-depth and examples were given, including pictures and screenshot examples of the development process. Character artworks and UI were designed and drawn for the purpose of being used in the demo.
The demo reached a playable state at the end of the work and a final evaluation of the tools was given. There was still more room for extra development on the demo such as better artwork, coding of UX and UI and playing experience, and writing for the story of the game. However, the purpose of the thesis was reached. VNMaker can be highly recommended for programmers and artists who are planning to work on their own visual novels.
