Novelate is a visual novel engine written in D.

It officially binds to SFML but the engine itself has no direct 
dependencies on SFML as there's plans for supporting libraries 
such as SDL etc. in the future too.




Just want to give a quick update that it now officially supports 
SDL as well which means the engine can use both SFML and SDL for 
rendering, handling events etc.


This is useful when you want to incorporate the engine into 
existing projects, games etc.


This change is not part of a release though because the next 
release will have some other features attached too. See the 
"Projects" tab on Github for more information and the pipeline of 
the project.
