Text Formatting

Story text supports inline colors and dialogue boxes.

Inline colors

Use square brackets:

The [red:guard] stops you. A [blue:merchant] waves.

The word guard appears in red and merchant appears in blue.

Dialogue boxes

Use curly braces:

{red:Stop right there!} the guard shouts.
{blue:Please, let them pass} says the priest.

Each block becomes a formatted dialogue box.
