Text font issues

Haiku · 03-28-2024, 09:42 PM

I play on 1080p and I encounter numerous issues with text cutting and overlapping. I can literally go through most screens and find at least one issue. I'm unsure if it's worth reporting any of them? I find the old Fira Sans Condensed fits much better, although I'm not fond of the style. I was wondering if you could include a Condensed style of the default font? I know there's a Barlow Condensed, however, the line spacing is too tight. There's also Roboto Condensed, but it is too thin. Additionally, I find the 'small' font option too small and the default a bit too big for my liking. I would be delighted if there were an option in between the two. This, along with a condensed style, would solve many issues for me.

I played around with the fonts and ended up using Saira Semi Condensed. I think it fits pretty well and is a good condensed alternative to the default font, perhaps even better than the other font options that come with the game.

I like it. How did you get the game to use the new font?

I like it to. Trying to figure how to get it in my game on MacBook.

It's fairly easy to do. I will share the files tomorrow.
