AGI Studio 1 wk3 - related work

My ultimate project goal is to create an interactive game (illustration visual novel). I decided to work on short animated clips that will briefly introduce the game, where I would like to learn how to work with Adobe Animate. However, after some research, I am debating jumping into Adobe Animate or some 2D game engines, such as Godot or Unity 2D.

So I did research on some of the game engines and got some references(story style and game play style) how I would like my game to look like.

Here are two of those games, which are closer to my idea of interactive illustration visual novel:

1. Chaos on Deponia

2. Night Into the Woods

After the research and some feedback, I will stick to Adobe Animate plan for now. My mission for the visual novel is to tell the stories about the characters and the stories come from how the player will interact with the characters in the game. So I decided to focus on drafting out the characters with short animated clips. The aiming result are clips of some characters, with some features that represent them (might be background indicate their occupations or appearance with sound effect...etc). And hopefully in this way, I get to pick up Adobe Animate and probably use the skill to create the cut scenes that I will be able to put in the game.
