SKAdvancedLabelNode

SKLabelNode with single-handling-chars in Swift

Sequentially bouncing zoom animation:

Shake:

SKAdvancedLabelNode is a library written in Swift to improve the actual SpriteKit SKLabelNode class. It contains an array of each single char of your text re-builded as a SKLabelNode with one char to permit to animate or handling a single char of your label, few chars or all chars of text. This opens up the possibilities to create CGPath where your char comes for example from different points of screen using for example UIScreen.main.bounds.size as reference to adjust points..
