"Wrap around" will be supported with Output, and clipping will be supported with Text.

Btw, the maximum font size will be 16 x 16.
That is incredibly awesome! ^^ I'm really looking forward to playing with this! =)

Great! Tilemaps are going to be so easy with this...

A question: Can we have different sizes for different chars?

Not really.  In a 6x8 font, you can have an uppercase A bigger than a lower a, but they must both be 6x8.  If you want different sizes altogether, you will need to create more than one font.

Question: What kind of drawing methods will be supported? Will they be the same as xLIB? (overwrite, OR, XOR, AND, LCD update0?

Also will a 6x8 letter be the same size as a 8x8 one? (Since 1 byte is a multiple of 8 pixels)

Just like Text() and Output(), text drawing will be strictly overwrite.  Also, 6x8 fonts will be drawn as 6x8, just like on the homescreen.  However, they will be the same size in bytes as 8x8, if that's what you mean.

Ah ok, thanks for the info. I wondered about drawing methods since a lot of people like to have white text on black backgrounds.

That won't be hard.  I can do that

Btw would it be very hard to add XOR/OR logic too? With XOR we could use grayscale text/sprites maybe (Reuben Quest style) and/or blinking text animations. AND might be useful too, for masking, but I think the person can easily combine OR'ed and XOR'ed fonts together to do it.

XOR would be nice for greyscale, but overwrite can work for that too.

Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Yeah true, although it isn't as convenient for all purposes. It's better for title screens with nothing moving on the tiles.

I guess that wouldn't be too hard now that ln( is being incorporated.  ln( with 3 arguments would be OVERWRITE, and a 4th argument would be XOR, OR and AND.  Don't get your hopes up, though, we'd have to see how it goes

er, shouldnt they use the same argument? In xLIB, OR/XOR/AND/Overwrite all use the same argument.
