This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/Unity2D

  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • RenPy

    The Ren'Py Visual Novel Engine

    If you just want a simple, 2D visual novel, I'd honestly not use Unity and go for Renpy instead!

  • twinejs

    Twine, a tool for telling interactive, nonlinear stories

    Twine is a great free software for making VNs, it's quick to set up (can be used in browser) with some digging you can get a lot out of it. https://twinery.org/

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
