Scribble 7
Welcome to Scribble 7!
Developing Scribble 7 has been a long road, and I'm proud to finally put it out as a stable library for use in projects big and small, for hobbyists and for gamedev professionals.
This version introduces many new features:
- A struct-based object-orientated API that makes Scribble easier to understand and use
- Custom typewriter animations
- MSDF fonts for resolution-independent UI
- Animation synchronisation across text elements
Scribble 7 is a total rethink of the API that you use to interact with the core technology that drives Scribble and, as a result, the documentation has been revamped to reflect Scribble's new API and featureset. I hope it's easier to navigate and understand.
Due to the scope of the changes, upgrading from v6 to v7 will require a substantial refactor of any existing Scribble code. The behaviour of standard fonts and spritefonts should not have changed so your resources themselves will not need to be adjusted.
Please note that Scribble 7 requires the use of GameMaker Studio 2.3.1.
Thanks again and have fun!
