GBS Toolkit
Python tools for messing around with GB Studio projects.
GBS Toolkit is a tool I've built while working on Soul and Silicon, a
queer/trans dating simulator I'm writing for the GameBoy Color. It's a very
text-heavy game, and while GB Studio has a dialogue review section, it can't
always easily handle lots of branching dialogue, and there's no way for it to
add new dialogue.
GBS Toolkit allows you to export the entirety of a GB Studio project into a
collection of files written in kdl. These files define the
properties and scripts for every scene, actor, trigger, asset, and more in the
game, and can be reimported into a GB Studio .gbsproj file once you're done
editing them. No data should be lost between importing and exporting, so
you can edit freely without worrying about having to reimplement things.
The GBS Toolkit project is also set up so that other Python projects can use it
as a library for interacting with GB Studio project files.
Requirements

Tested with GB Studio v2.0 beta 5. Other versions may not work properly.
Python 3.6 or higher.
kdl-py 1.0.0 or higher.

Installation and Usage
GBS Toolkit can be used either through the command line or a GUI. There are
executable bundles for MacOS, Windows, and Linux available in
Releases. Otherwise,
GBS Toolkit can be installed from PyPI:
pip install gbstoolkit

In order to run the GBS Toolkit GUI from the command line:
gbstoolkit gui

In order to convert a project from a .gbsproj file to kdl:
gbstoolkit format <gbsproj file> <kdl directory>

In order to convert a project from kdl to a .gbsproj file:
gbstoolkit parse <kdl directory> <gbsproj file>

Running a bundled executable will launch the GUI immediately.
Future Plans
Currently, there is no support for custom plugins or engines. Support is
planned for future versions, but I'm still figuring out how to write a plugin
system that doesn't allow for arbitrary code execution.
GBS Toolkit will be updated to support GB Studio v3 once it exits alpha and is
recommended for games to use.
Licensing and Contribution
Contributions are more than welcome, and GBS Toolkit is publicly available
under FAFOL 0.2. You can use, modify, and even redistribute it
however you want, as long as you're not being exploitative with it. Thank you
for giving GBS Toolkit a look!
