New framework SENSE generates branching visual novels with emotional depth

Researchers have developed SENSE, a novel framework designed to generate playable, branching visual novels with dynamic emotional navigation. This system integrates a state-based narrative architecture called MIND with structural analysis and context management modules to create narratives that are both coherent and emotionally resonant. SENSE can produce multiple intersecting story routes from minimal input, maintaining narrative causality and character consistency, and has shown promising results in evaluations for diversity and asset integration. AI

IMPACT This framework could enable more sophisticated and emotionally engaging interactive storytelling experiences.
