Just wondering if anyone had any tutorials or such if there is a dialogue feature present in the engine. I have looked everywhere, with no answers -\_- hope one of you guys know.

There’s no dialogue feature in Tiled, but you can set custom properties on objects.

You can write dialogues directly into the properties, but this will get annoying fast because there’s only a small single-line text input at the moment. So maybe it’ll be better if you put your dialogue in separate files, and only use the custom property to reference it.
