I thought about adding Among Us to the death generator, but it& #39;s a very generic font and scalable vector interface (maybe flash?) and also I usually hack games using cheat tools to get the images and fonts out.
that& #39;s not gonna be well-liked in a multiplayer game

apparently there& #39;s a practice mode and currently no anti-cheat. ok, maybe I can do it
what the hallucinatory madness is this font?
wait, are they encoding a monochrome font in a small image by using each of the R/G/B/A channels separately?
ok none of the font images seem to match really. I think the game is doing some funky rendering with the fonts, so I& #39;m gonna have to fall back on text injection.
with a time limit! that& #39;s fancy.

and by fancy I mean I& #39;m already screaming
oh wait. the timeout doesn& #39;t matter on freeplay mode.
dang it I& #39;m RATELIMITED!
does the death generator even support right-aligned text? I& #39;m not sure it does
oh it does.
either my text injection isn& #39;t yet 100% accurate, or the alphabet goes abcdeghiik0074ik0075ik0076mnopik0081ik0082ik0083TUVik0087ik0088ik0089z
I couldn& #39;t make it reliable so I just cheated and made it check that the pixels look like what I expect. it now inserts something like "| U ||||" and it matches on the ||||
and if it has all of unicode (it doesn& #39;t. it doesn& #39;t even have all of ASCII!) that& #39;ll take, uh, 5 days to extract.
ahhh yes the alphabet.

I fixed it!
well, that& #39;s... almost progress
this game is so exciting
weirdly the font for the names is the same base font, but it has way more characters.
Like the one for chat doesn& #39;t have square brackets! it doesn& #39;t have a + either.
the name font? it does.

in chat: why would anyone need a + symbol?
in names: yeah of course we support ÷, what do you think we are, cavemen?

I tried extracting the name font. this is what I got
that& #39;s how people talk in among us , right?
the amongus wiki has pages for each of the colors and some of them are trending
progress
just testing how twitter crops this
ok I have it generating. the only problem is that you can only set the color of the first character for Reasons, and also it has to be five, and you can& #39;t say more than one line, and also this is completely not how the chat works
look at the first post: all the talking is on the LEFT side, it just switches to the right when it& #39;s you. https://twitter.com/Foone/status/1319377603208204288">https://twitter.com/Foone/sta...
I had to take a screenshot of a real game to build the chat image. I lost.
also I only played two games of this and got called the N-word twice. gamers are fun

I joined another game and they asked me how old I am and then left the game
this is 2020: we can& #39;t even A/S/L, we only get as far as A

Testing cropping of a real screenshot with some minor editing
it& #39;d make more sense centered, I think
half of making death generators that aren& #39;t for the NES are just variants of shouting "FUCK IT WE& #39;LL DO IT LIVE"
this game has some text on the same screen that& #39;s left-justified and some that& #39;s right-justified. can the generator do that? well, kinda, but only for the first line. so do I add explicit justification per line as a general feature?
or just do manual justification for every single line?
FUCK IT, LIVE
FUCK IT, LIVE
I should add some kind of special code to make it easier to paste IRC logs into it
