The novelsphere.js, based on HTML5, works on Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad and Android devices.
The novelsphere.js boasts compatibility with Japan's most famous novel game engine KiriKiri, and can interpret KAG scripts.
As the novelsphere.js works purely off HTML5, it is possible to run novels on modern browsers, even on mobile devices without the need for any third party applets such as Flash. This allows the engine to function on any modern browser, without the need for further extensions.
Novels created on the novelsphere.js not only function in a browser, but can be packaged as an application for iOS, Android, Windows and Mac.
This is a sample novel created on the novelsphere.js.
Through the use of the iframe tag,
it is possible to paste the game on any web page.
Currently the novelsphere.js is specially licensed by NovelSphere. As long as the novel is published on the NovelSphere website, it is possible to download the SDK, and release/sell produced games for free.
In order to use the novelsphere.js on a personal platform (such as your own web page), or to release a game packaged as an application without releasing it on the NovelSphere website, a paid license is required.
