Update - Scribble has changed a lot since these videos were made. You probably want to learn about the new version instead:

If you use Game Maker for long enough you'll probably start to get annoyed at the built-in text drawing functions. The reason for this, it turns out, is that the built-in text drawing functions aren't very good. Fortunately, Game Maker users have taken it upon themselves to make their own. I happen to like this one.

Yes, you can use this to serve as an Undertale "text engine."

This video is about how to set it up and some basic usage. There's plenty more stuff you can do with Scribble (typewriter effects, etc) that I'll be going over in another video later, plus some technical things.

The advanced stuff video:

The Github repository for Scribble:
https://github.com/JujuAdams/scribble

This is a tool for Game Maker Studio 2, and it won't work in GMS1. There is a version of it that does work on GMS1 (which I helped make!) but it's very old and isn't guaranteed to work as well.
