Scribbly
Pencil, paper, and a 1.08 texture warning — finish the doodle before you walk out.
Scribbly is the drawing-side NPC AndyLand named in patch 1.08. The official line: “Fixed a bug where using the pencil on Scribbly while leaving the room would glitch Mellow’s textures.”
Scribbly sits in the same design family as the Circus Doodle Maze — marks on surfaces that the house treats as real. You do not fight Scribbly. You use a pencil on them, then you stay in the room until the animation finishes.
How to Interact
- Have the pencil in inventory (Chapter I drawing / office-adjacent loot — same examine cycle as other tools)
- Click Mellow → equip pencil
- Use it on Scribbly
- Do not change rooms until the texture / doodle resolves
- Then walk away
On pre-1.08 builds, leaving mid-use could park Mellow behind or inside world layers — the same class of bug as pressing the Core button while exiting the Core room (also 1.08) and drawing Mellow behind a rock at the waterfall code door.
If you are already glitched:
- Update to 1.08+
- Re-enter the room
- If layers stay wrong, re-enter Timesville / the nearest hub (Andy’s older advice for “Mellow under everything” in 1.02)
Not the Doodle Maze
| Encounter | What you do |
|---|---|
| Scribbly | Pencil on a character; stay put |
| Doodle Maze | Follow animated figures in the Circus tunnel to recover Hands |
You can do both on the same Chapter I file. They do not share a Steam achievement.
Stay and Combat
Scribbly is not a Stay secret and not a Brawler kill. Optional flavor. Put the pencil away before Misery Town clown walks anyway — 1.08 inventory softlocks on those approaches are easy to trip if you fidget with tools.

Q: Same as the Circus maze? A: No. The maze is a Hands puzzle. Scribbly is a pencil NPC with a texture bug history.
