Story, Mission & Quest Design

articy:draft makes the creation of interactive, branching content easy. It’s perfect for your narrative structure design. Each node in your story or mission flowchart can contain an inner flowchart. You can start with a top-level chapter-like structure and break it down into further and further until reaching single lines of dialogue. This nested approach ensures clean and organized flowcharts.

Create variables, conditions and instructions to control the flow your game and make your player's choices count.

Use the simulation mode to go through your story from a player's perspective and test your flow logic before you export it.

Unity and Unreal Integrations

Boost your iteration process. The comprehensive engine plugins get your content ready to use with Unity or Unreal with just a few clicks.

Game Object Database

articy:draft includes a powerful game object database with a flexible template system. Build everything, from characters, items, spells to weapons and skills. Templates are editable and very iteration-friendly due to their modular setup. Objects inherit the characteristics of their template making it easy to modify or expand them later.

Use And Create Plugins

Automate tasks and customize workflows by using custom plugins. The Macro Devkit enables you to develop your own plugins fast and easy.

Location Planning

With the build-in location editor, a vector-based 2D drawing tool, you can easily plan your game world and single levels. This editor is an iteration-friendly sketching tool for maps and scenarios. You can place story events, spawn points and trigger zones on the map for planning purposes. For some game genres, the location editor can even produce the actual game output. For example 2D layer-based backgrounds for point’n’click adventures or hidden object games.
