This is so cool, I’m a little bummed out I discovered it after Valentine’s Day, but my kids still appreciated the cards I made them today. One thing that threw me off initially is that the selector boxes were sized so that there is a lot of white space at the bottom and despite what the scroll bar was showing, I didn’t realize there were so many additional options. After I realized, I just expanded the box to display the last row on my local copy. Looking through the implementation code a little deeper, I’m curious about how the transformation from 384 x 512 to 342 x 512 works for the border graphics since they seem to take up a full card. I didn’t really notice any distortion, but the final output is clearly narrower.

One thing I noticed while experimenting with the Ply storyformat in Twine is that there’s no word wrap on paragaphs when you use the Play command within Twine. Not the end of the world, but certainly the preferred behavior when testing.

I was referring to the Font Book preview that is shown for a given font. The Text Area change you suggested nearly works, but it looks like there is a subtle linebreak/cr encoding difference in there somewhere.

Sample-Text looks correct in Font Forge with my expected 5 rows of text, but the breaks aren’t recognized in Font Book until I delete the breaks in Font Forge, re-add them, and export again.

Cool, thank you. I will try that approach. I’ve also run into weird Sample Text display glitches in Font Book depending on the browser I used Pixel Font Converter in to generate the font. Chrome is fine (so I’ll just use it going forward), but if I use Firefox the text is shifted down vertically so that only the top most line of a character shows.

It seems to be the convention for most fonts to set Sample Text to:

ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklm
nopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789

but the Sample Text field in Pixel Font Editor doesn’t support newlines. I can correct this in FontForge, but it would be nice if Pixel Font Converter just supported this functionality by default.

Excellent combination of story, Decker aesthetic, and multimedia elements! I liked the slow burn delivery and shifting character perspectives as the truth of the entire situation and backstory is revealed. Really cool to see Decker being used for this kind of storytelling!

The music work you’ve done in Decker has been epic Millie! Really enjoyed this EP and of course the little musical clips you drop in your zine are always a favorite as well.

Solved! I was using https://adventuron.io/classroom instead of https://adventuron.io/classroom3 because I was coming from the main page and didn’t realize there were a couple different versions. I can clearly see the functionality differences between the two versions now that I know what’s going on.

Just confirmed Firefox has the same issue.

The following line has started giving me an error message in both my updated version of The Wall and also just the minimal settings you listed above. My updated version of the Wall with custom theming experiments was working fine previously. I’m running Adventuron in the latest version of Safari.

Very cool, that's way more powerful than I expected. Thank you for the thorough reply!

I was able to successfully change header and text body colors by extending the two theme, but it's unclear to me if there's a way to change the horizontal seperator to a color other than red at this point. Adventuron documentation seems to indicate that it is set to a value of  'adv_line_red' and implementation is subject to change. I'd like to have a way to set it to a color of my choice from the default palette, but I understand if that hasn't been implemented yet. As a follow up question is there a way to replace the values of the default palette with 16 colors of my own choosing?
