# NarrativeCraft

Create narrative games inside Minecraft. No coding, no game engine, only text and logic.

**NarrativeCraft** is a Minecraft mod to create your own narrative games in Minecraft. If you don't want to learn a game engine to create stories with branching patterns, this mod does all the work for you. ## How does this work NarrativeCraft works thanks to the amazing open source project [Ink](https://www.inklestudios.com/ink/), a narrative scripting language to write dialogs and create branching patterns. Text first, logic later. ## Features NarrativeCraft is an all-in-one system, meaning that you have everything by default, no addons required. - Cutscenes - Player recording - Dialogs rendering (on screen or a character speaking) - Camera angles for character dialog focus - Interactions with trigger zones and clickable points - Characters and NPCs - Full management of your story - Choices - Saves - Main screen (new game, continue...) - Multiplayer ## About Multiplayer NarrativeCraft is singleplayer first, meaning that it is mainly developed for singleplayer. However, multiplayer is supported, but it does not mean **co-op**, it means that you can play a story, show cutscenes, display characters or NPCs to a single player, so you can create more immersion for your server. ## Getting started If you want to start learning **NarrativeCraft**, take a look at the [documentation](https://narrativecraft.loudo.dev); you'll be guided there to start your first story and learn the fundamentals of the mod. ## API An API is available for use ### Gradle ``` maven { name "loudo" url "https://maven.loudo.dev" } ``` ``` compileOnly 'fr.loudo.narrativecraft:narrativecraft-api:2.0.0 ``` ### Maven ``` loudo https://maven.loudo.dev ``` ``` fr.loudo.narrativecraft narrativecraft-api 2.0.0 ``` ## Contributing Thank you for your interest in the project and for helping to make it better, take a look at [CONTRIBUTING.MD](https://github.com/LOUDO56/NarrativeCraft/blob/26.1.2/CONTRIBUTING.MD) before making a pull request. ## Credits - [ink](https://github.com/inkle/ink) - Scripting language - [blade-ink-java](https://github.com/bladecoder/blade-ink-java) - Java adaptation of ink
