How To Use

Here's an example usage of the program:

var stage = new babble.Stage('stage', {
	numCharacters: 5,
	assets: assetLists
}, assets, assetsPath)

stage.addPuppet(puppet, 1)

stage.getPuppet(1).jiggle()

Also available are docs over each of the program's classes:

• Stage
• Puppet
• Cutscene

Creating puppets can be made significantly easier by using Babble Buds, which contains a puppet editor, and using the JSON files in the projects' "characters" folder
