Tyrano Builder is amazing and beginner friendly, it's a great platform for making visual novels. Because of it I'm creating my own independent game and even learning a little bit about programming every day.

We developed a game using the latest version of TyranoBuilder and attempted to deploy it on Steam. We saw that it was quite not possible to lock/unlock achievements easily with zero coding skills as stated by TB. Also once investigated the earlier games using TB engine, I saw that they were using an earlier version which made our game assets in compatible with the earlier TB. I suspect that this can be related to the shortcoming of TyranoBuilder's integration with Steam achievements and hoping that it will be fixed in the future ://

I'll change this review if things change for any reason, but so far I don't see why it would. Despite showing 60 minutes, for some reason, I've been using it for a few hours at time of writing. But really, you could arrive at the same conclusion after ten minutes. This program is amazingly stable, fast, smooth, intuitive, and most-importantly, extremely well-documented. If you want to know how to do something, and you are able to do basic Googling, then you will find out how to do it, how everything works, etc. It doesn't crash, it doesn't hiccup, everything works exactly how you'd expect it to work. If you want to get into making games, make VN's, or just tell stories, this is *the* tool to use. It's easily worth three times what it costs. Take advantage of the fact that the devs are excellent at making software and bad at finance, and get this game. Oh, I do have one tiny need / suggestion - The Character Alignment Tool needs to be expandable at the boundaries of the popup - If you're making something that's vertical, you can't resize. Luckily, things are easily drag-and-drop so you can still work with it.

easy for my stupid brain who was too lazy to use ren'py cus i hate coding. It's like as basic as can be, so don't expect any like crazy features. I will say most of the plugins haven't been updated in awhile so that was pretty annoying. This game itself hasn't been updated in quite some time, but its easy if ur just starting out making visual novels.

Fantastic. I have no knowledge of scripting or game-building whatsoever, but I can definitely make VN games now. Definitely recommend it.
