Title: Customizable main text color
Post by: MrWildBunnycat on July 01, 2015, 01:07:12 PM
Hello,
I've just tried Cogmind and I fell in love! The amount of polish is amazing!
One thing that I believe could greatly benefit this game would be the ability to customize the main hue of the text in the game. I like green, but occasionally find it hard to read, even with the largest font possible. Would that be something you'd consider for the feature list?
Thanks,
Bunnycat

Glad to hear you're enjoying it!

Your request is definitely something I want to do at some point. I can imagine it might make some of the UI features/effects look strange, and due to how it's implemented would affect more than text alone, but one of the goals is to make the game more accessible to players with various types of color blindness.

Read more about my potential approaches here (http://www.gridsagegames.com/blog/2014/04/accommodating-colorblindness/). You can see a test there as well :)

Edit: By the way, try out the new fonts (http://www.gridsagegames.com/forums/index.php?topic=165.0) coming in the next version since they will also help those of you having trouble with readability of the defaults.
