Easter egg for now, he's not important.

Elections were in November so I can assume the Org. had been planning it since September/October.

What do you mean by "easter egg for now"? He is not likely to show up again but it is possible?

It is a nice easter egg, anyway. I wonder if we could include the female version? She is the only new character who has a defined genderbent appearance after all.

I ask about the organization because I suppose he shouldn't be seen being a delinquent by anyone now (to be prepered to the elections). But I guess he could run alway to have some peace (and smoke).

ok so heatth hasn't talked here about the progress on the coding end, but we finally got the greentext much prettier and much neater to write! only took poking several ppl on the ren'py boards and some exparimentation but we got it!

Other than that it... Just waiting on resources i suppose and anyother things like style type things. or other such things

I do not post here becaus I believe most do not care about it. (And who actually does we can speak by msn)

But, yeah, the greentext is satisfactory now. It still needing a little few things, like font (is different from the rest of text?), outlines(it do not have a window, so it will is kinda hard to read) and which shade of green. But the hard part is already finished.

Ah, we make it based on that image from CanadaAotS:

Greentext needs to look a fair bit more mindfuck than that.

I'd really love to see if you guys can make it type itself. That would rock.

What do you mean "type itself"? Apearing one letter by time? All the text are that way.

I set the default text speed to 40 characters by second(you can change it on the menu). The greentext is 20ch/s. I am sure we coulde add a typing sound to it too.

And what you mean by more mindfuck? Any idea?

The greentext should appear like in Binjovi's original concept art, if you remember that.

This one:

Spoiler:

Canada didn't like it for some reason and showed me that image.

But we can do it too. However, we will need an image for that background.

Edit:

Actually, looking better at it, while Binjovi's concept work well for a single line, it do not for bigger text. The green box will cover all screen.

I just thought of two things:
1. I lost the game
2. and the programming language Brainfuck
[/offtopic]

How about the green text slanted and waving or backwards

WAT.

Damn you.

dragon4dudes · 2009-08-03, 11:58

srry, but I was basically at nerd camp where 99% of the people knew/heard about the game... Eventually people became so annoyed by "I lost the game" that some started saying "I won the fun/game" or something else. But I digress.

I agree with Kaisos. the way the green text looks in those pictures make them look rather dull. They don't really have any impact.

It would be interesting to see a transparent layer overlapping the scene whenever the green text appears. Also, I think the green text should be in the middle of the screen, not pushed off to one of the sides. I keep getting this image in my head of green text typing itself from the center of the screen as if you were writing while centered on Word.

vivify93 · 2009-08-03, 20:37

I have a new theory on who Greentext is. Where do we go to guess again? We PM Danchou or Kaisos, right?

Ah, the fine print.

In all seriousness, you'd win my respect not if you manage to figure out who it is, but if you manage to figure out why it is who it is.

vivify93 · 2009-08-03, 22:25

I have no clue why it is who it is, if this person is indeed Greentext. I'd need to think on that. I'm pretty sure that I'm wrong and not the first to guess it, though.

At least, I'd hope I'm not the first to guess it's this person...

silvita · 2009-08-03, 23:21

ok well now that we have the green text working in the way we do, it shouldn't be too hard to edit them, are we going w/ binjovi's or somthing different?

Binjovi's. But I think we'll put it in the center of the screen. It needs to be intrusive.

Can be done, easily. However, I don't belive it is a good idea. It is good for a single line, but not for when the text grow bigger. And most text are bigger then one line (at last in Day0).

The problem is the shadows behind the text act like a box. The box will occup easily half screen. A idea would be do a similar effect but without a box. Using havilly outlined letters.
