So yes gotta make a game using Unity - Construct might need to be an at home project, but maybe I could still use my budget to buy it? But using the trial first would be good.
I got adventure creator in Unity on my computer and I'm looking through the website and at games that have been made with it.

I'm looking for Visual Novel style games that I could make as well as the 2D sidescroller.
A lot of the games on the website dont have working links.
Here's a cool demo playthrough of a kind of adventure visual novel: https://www.adventurecreator.org/forum/discussion/294/black-feather-forest

Super simple clicking game with visuals:

It's interesting and could be applied to my visual novel maybe?
I searched Visual Novel on the forum and found some interesting stuff:
