XP3 Files and KiriKiri

KiriKiri is a popular game engine used primarily in the development of visual novels, a genre of interactive fiction. XP3 files are commonly used in games developed with KiriKiri, as they can bundle together all the game's resources into a single, easily distributed file. This can include everything from character images and background art, to voice recordings and background music, to the game's actual scripts and story files.

Opening and Using XP3 Files

To open XP3 files, you'll typically use a program that can read and execute KiriKiri scripts. The most common example is KiriKiri itself, but there are also other utilities like XP3Viewer or Garbro which can open these files.

It's important to remember that XP3 files are often an integral part of the game or program they're associated with, and extracting or altering their contents can break the game. Therefore, unless you're a developer or you're trying to mod a game, you generally won't need to (and shouldn't) open XP3 files.

If you're interested in developing games with KiriKiri or modding existing ones, you can check out KiriKiri's GitHub page for more information.
