Love2D Floating Text - Simple floating text system

[Hipreme]

It lets you do floating text, commonly used for displaying combat text in JRPGs

Simple example:

Code: Select all

PopupTextManagerInstance:addPopup(
    {
        text = "Example Text",
        font = yourFontInstance
        color = {r = 255, g = 0, b = 0, a = 255},
        x = 200,
        y = 200,
        scaleX = 4,
        scaleY = 4,
        fadeIn = {start = 0.2, finish = 0.7},
        fadeOut = {start = 0.7, finish = 2},
        dX = 40,
        dY = 40,
        duration = 2
    })

I'm sorry, I've updated on the same day the code in the manager, but forgot about main, it needed simply to change from 'additive' to 'add', it is already updated on github
