Kagami Forge

Kagami Forge is a visual novel studio built on Ren'Py 8.5.

Put a background on the stage, drag a character into place, type a line — and press Play. Everything you make is plain Ren'Py script, so you can open it in any editor at any moment and keep going by hand.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Stage editor — backgrounds, characters, emotions, transitions, music, right on the scene preview

• Story map — branches, choices and endings, with checks for broken jumps and unreachable scenes

• Characters — sprites, expressions, portraits, speech style

• Game UI designer — main menu, dialogue window and your own screens without code

• Animations library — entrances, exits, camera moves, or build your own

• Variables, conditions and live values from the running game

• Voice acting, localization tables, achievements, gallery & extras

• Plugins — add your own scene blocks and panels in JavaScript

• Live2D support (Cubism SDK downloaded separately from Live2D Inc.)

• Builds for Windows, Linux and macOS in one click

• Automatic backups, undo for everything, restore with a before/after view

NO LOCK-IN

Your project is an ordinary Ren'Py project. Stop using Kagami Forge tomorrow and your game still works.

The studio doesn't write your story or draw your art — it's a tool for making your own visual novel.
