[edit] Glyph Codes to Use in Your Level Descriptions

Kodu allows you to enter text for objects to speak, and as a description of your world. This text can contain tags that are replaced with images.

To get those cool little pictures in your level description, just type something like this:

"Look out for the falling <apple>! Press <A> to jump and <LS> to move!"

Here, apple would be replaced with a picture of an apple, <a> would get a picture of the A button on the controller, and LS would be replaced with a picture of the left stick.

Below is a list of all the glyph codes. Some of them have several different versions. Remember to put <> around the code to have it translated - the image should appear as soon as you press >.

There's also a special one: <cr> to let you put a line break in the middle of description. You can also do this by plugging a USB keyboard into your xbox.

To use these, simply insert these terms within your text. Case doesn't seem to matter.
