I always throw out RPG Maker MV as a tool for visual novel style games. You can easily use the systems in place to make a RenPy sort of game but RPGM MV is nice because it supports html exports that can be embedded directly into itch (there's a person working on an html RenPy export, but I haven't checked out the beta yet). I know it gets a bad rep for being only a tool to make mediocre Dragon Quest clones. It supports images, videos, and has a robust variable system already in place : )
