I checked, and annoyingly this class scene from Snatcher is implemented as just some BG tiles of these exact words, there's no font here to generatorize.

shout out to all the CYBERPLUNKS out there
-
that's how you know a bard is doing your string handling
-
@munin nice
-
my code has (depending on how you count), 2-4 different ways to handle per-letter kerning adjustments. I'm sure that's a reasonable number to have
-
I'm now going WORD BY WORD and manually fixing the kerning for each letter pair.
save me
-
THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE "S" IN THIS SCREEN
-
I can now generate the word "THIS" entirely correctly.
You will note this is the first word of the text.

Are you sure that's not CYBERPL'NKS? I'm guessing this is a Klingon thing, yeah?

@uss_oatmeal I've not yet had to generatorize a game which uses tlhIngan Hol but it's only a matter of time
-
I'm up to "CYBERPUNKS" now.
The "E" in "CYBERPUNKS" is different than both the ones in "DEDICATED" so I'm just gonna mark that down as "they made a mistake" -
I wonder if there's a letter-pair pangram.
Like I've already got it doing a pangram so I can see all the letters in context and adjust the kerning, but there's all kinda of letter combos not used in them. -

the "T" is available in two variations as well. BOOO

@foone this stork
-
Finally got the kerning into a halfway decent form, and just had to give up on some pixel-accuracy because THEY'RE NOT ACCURATE EITHER
-
-
@foone Have you accidentally double-spaced before CORRUPTION?
-
@foone I have *no* idea about kerning whatsoever so from that absolute ignorance I ask: isn't that “i” a bit spacey?
-
@nirro it is, but that's consistent with how Konami did it.
-
@growf Nope, that's my trying to match the original Konami spacing
-

@foone I have the feeling this would have been easier with the MSX version of the game, although the font has less “character” (at least the one in the fan translation, pun intended).
