Did you make Cafe Rouge? I played it in high school, and it was fun. I think that's how I got on the mailing with this link. I hope all your dreams come true!

CloudNovel was better 4 years ago when you could just make a game. Now everything's premium and it's so hard to manage what you're doing. Just learn to code and use Ren'Py. You'll thank me later

@matt_chester I’m pretty much a free user, it works fine for me

@matt_chester Not really, making a game now is the same as making a game before, but better, of course. Plus, with constant Game Jams, you get all the points necessary to acquire the premium features. I never bought anything there with real money and didn't have any issues making my games, Ren'py is more robust, sure, but that's because Ren'py not only allows for coding but has been in the market for several years, has a gigantic user base and is the "mainstream visual novel engine". A comparison between the two is not exactly fair right now.

@matt_chester I use premium simply for the few number of benefits it offers. 4 years ago CN didn't have hardly ANY of the amazing features it currently has, and the only features that aren't free are features that would make massive VN's, like mine, easier to manage. If you're making a small VN just to tell a short story premium wouldn't be necessary.

@matt_chester I have been a CloudNovel users since it has been founded and while it was still in beta state. From what I know, whatever that were available for free 4 years ago remains free today. If you can make a game for free 4 years ago then you still can make a game for free today. Premium, in my opinion is just additional features that will ease the work progress but not neccessarily needed to complete a game.

Hello everyone, Neeka from Ostrich Burger Productions here! I wanted to leave a review of the site I use to make all of my games, Cloudnovel. Misconceptions: -Codeless means less capable -Have to pay -Games made with the site are purely online Those are all not true! In turns of 'gamification' you can create click-n-point turn based battles, hidden object games, mini games such as cooking and gardening, and many more. Cloudnovel has a Youtube channel with tutorials and are updating their documentation. You don't have to pay anything at all! While the engine is online, you can download your game for offline play and upload to various sites such as Itch.io and Steam for others. Honestly, I don't think I'd be able to make games the way I do if I couldn't use Cloudnovel. The CEO is down to earth and the community is one of the nicest ones I've ever been a part of. Plus the engine hosts popular features such as animation, video implementation, transitional effects, etc as well as a useful Resource Library. Though if you truly want to understand, why not take a look yourself?

CloudNovel, quite simply put, is in itself a novel idea. Quick to learn, easy to master, and dependable as a platform for Visual Novel distribution. I often hear the argument to learn programming for yourself but not everyone wants to be a coder. CloudNovel is the experimenter and artist's engine worthy of a second glance or three.

Hey there, I created this website because I didn't want to learn coding to make my games. So, I made a game engine that lets people create games without ever having to learn coding. I'm proud to say we have over 1 million users. There happens to be a lot of people who want to make games without coding.

First of all the Community is great and its like a big family. Whenever you have a problem someone is There to help you and its always updated. If you need any option thats not there yet you just need to ask for it and theyll do their best to make it available. Then it is really easy and intuitive to make a novel no need to Hire a technician everyone can Do it. And it saves so much time.

CloudNovel is a great tool for non-programmers. It is really easy to use and took me only several hours to master it and complete a bare minimum visual novel with free-to-use assets. I don't know any programming language nor am I interested in learning or have the patience to learn it. I tried numerous times, failed each time. Therefore, CloudNovel is such an amazing product if you are someone like me. It is an online engine, and it has amazing collaboration features that allow me to create a game together with my friends as if I am playing a game in Co-op mode. Of course, it does have several flaws such as you need a stable internet connection to play the game but for me, the pros outweighed the cons. I have been a user since it first started and I have been loving it. It has a great community that is ready to interact and helps each other. If you are an artist, or a writer, whom without a speck of knowledge of programming but you have this idea that you really wish to ingrain in the form of a visual novel then you should indeed, give CloudNovel a try. If you have any questions, just ask in the Support forum or contact the staff and they will answer it as soon they are available.
