I am doing something close to "storytelling-focused games like some I've played, stuff that's more like a VN". And to do that I am only using HTML and CSS. The result is a webcomic of an unusual kind illustrated with pixel art designed for RPGs.

This way it does not require programming and hence I can focus on the story. You can check out one of my stories here : https://drdru.github.io/twc/twc_save_aryn/01_intro.html (it's in Japanese, click on 次 at the bottom to go to the next page and get a feel for it).

There are also Javascript framewrok that allow you to create RPGs in the browser. You might want to check them out.

This reminds me of an old web comic called Kid Radd (https://www.bgreco.net/kidradd/)

It used a bunch of animation and pixel work to tell a massive story (although it takes a while to get there)
