The Future?
Topic: Watercrown News
Sorry about the lack of updates recently. I've been trying to make some decisions regarding my project...

Amazing what a change in font can do. It's probably a little too medieval-ish, but Dragonsbrethren of Romhacking.net provided a nice 8x8 based on the font from Final Fantasy IV Advance...the text looks 200% better with it.

But I'm still not quite satisfied, and I'm honestly entertaining the idea of taking a crack at implementing a VWF - that's "variable-width font", for those not in the know. The more text I can fit into a page, the better: a page break is about four bytes, and they can really add up, especially if a sentence needs to be broken up between multiple pages to fit.

My brain seems to crave tedium...ah, well. It'll all be worth it as long as I myself feel happy with the end result.
