Narrat 2.1.0 - New scripting features and many new commands
Narrat » Devlog
Narrat is a game engine for making interactive narrative RPGs packed with features.. Create your game by editing with a Simple scripting syntax. It supports Skills with skill check rolls, an Items inventory, and has a Quests System. The script system is very powerful and allows branching choices, functions, variables and conditions.
Narrat 2.1.0 is out
There have been many changes since the last devlog, with narrat 2.0.0 and 2.1.0
New scripting features
Narrat 2.0.0 was a big rework of the internal scripting system to turn the scripting into a more proper fully featured programming language. narrat scripts now support things like using expressions as arguments, variables, logic and math operators, and functions with return values.
See more about what 2.0.0 brought in the news page.
Note: The 2.0.0 update involved some small breaking changes to the syntax for writing conditions. There is a tool to help auto update scripts available though.
