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.
-
@foone You could always trace down whatever version of Deluxe Paint or Amiga OS somebody used to create this and grab the fonts they used for it.
-
honestly if you look closely at it you can tell it's not a font.
The O in "OF" is different than the O in "CORRUPTION" and "TO" and "WHO"
-
that's the kind of thing that shouldn't happen with fonts but can easily happen with humans slinging pixels around.
-
@foone I can't see it
-
@anselmschueler it's way easier to see if you delete the background black. Part of the dark border on the O is missing from the right side, but only in the word "OF"
-
@Video_Game_King extracting the fonts from those sorts of things (so I can easily figure out when games use them) has been on my TODO for a while!
-
I need to build a tool that'll show me all Death Generator fonts FOR ONE LETTER at once.
like "show me every pixel art Q" so I can steal bits of their design while trying to fudge this "O" into a "Q" -
I mean, it's not a million miles off...
It's 11369 pixels off, to be exact.

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.
