Since Defold version 1.2.76 there’s an option to disable the adjust mode of a Gui scene. Select the Gui root in the Outline and set Adjust Mode to Disable in the properties windows. With this change you will be able to alter your render script in such a way that you can draw the Gui with the same view and projection as you draw sprites etc. This will make it a lot easier to have text nodes follow game objects.
