Text/dialog box - Quick and dirty with Scribble [GameMaker]
49This video tutorial is an updated version for scribble (free text renderer). It is now easier to use and still one of the best free tools for text formating.
I though I can give you a quick and dirty guide through all essentials that this text render has to offer.
What can this tool do? You can chain on any positon of the text multiple commands that do cool effects like wobble, wave or standard operations to increase the text size or color a word. There is even a typewriter function included which is a god send to an easy to use system for dialogs ingame.
Big thanks once again to Juju Adams for giving the community this excellent tool!
