What is NarrativeCraft

NarrativeCraft is an open source Minecraft mod that allows you to create narrative games with Minecraft. No need to learn code and a game engine, only text and logic are applied. The goal is to make story creation the most accessible as possible.

How does this work?

NarrativeCraft works thanks to the amazing project ink, a narrative scripting language with an intuitive syntax where you write first, then apply logic later. It's not coding, but scripting, it's way more accessible for non-technical users

What are the features?

NarrativeCraft comes with a lot of built-in features to create your narrative games :

  • 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

Multiplayer is mentioned, but it does not mean co-op, but means that you can run the mod on a dedicated server and play a story, cutscene, show characters... to a single player to create more immersion.

Keep in mind that NarrativeCraft is singleplayer-compatible, meaning that features are written with singleplayer in mind, because the mod is mainly designed for solo maps.
