About

YarnScribbler is a modifier version of YarnEditor meant to be used with JujuAdam's Scribble and Chatterbox libraries for GameMaker Studio 2.3+. It strips away unnecessary features from YarnEditor and implements Scribble's own brand of markup to make the Yarn -> Chatterbox -> Scribble pipeline more efficient and fun.

Scribble Markup
