About

The goal of this plugin is to provide an easy-to-use, customizable and extensible way to create dialogues without having to build your own system, because depending on the game, it can be a huge and complex task.

I started making this dialogue system for my game One Cake Day, and future projects, but then it became an entire editor (...and a year of work!), so I decided to make it a full plugin! I hope it helps you build your narrative more easily and improve your workflow!

Follow my game on Itch.io! (It's on early stages yet)

Documentation

You can see the documentation to learn more about Sprouty Dialogs and all its features!

There is a getting started section, where you can learn how to start making your dialogues!

Also, you have a class reference if you need it.

Roadmap

These are some features that I want to implement in the future:

• Grouping nodes support
• Typing sounds support
• Adding more event nodes:
  • Randomize node
  • Play sound node
  • Switch case node
• Text effect tags (e.g. to change the typing speed in between dialogues)

And I will probably add more as I need for my game ;)
