2023-08-23. Showing off the font animation system with a cast of larger fonts. The low resolution pixel screen is 3x3 pixel size within 1920x1080 full resolution. This is higher resolution than I want to go with the inspiration of this engine, but these larger fonts demanded more resolution. I seriously considered not uploading this video, since I already demonstrated fonts -- but I thought the animation system was too nice to not show off. I also want to show off the font. I still have a vast array of smaller fonts you have not yet seen.

The fonts with my name, Jason, in them, are my own or are edited versions of public domain fonts. The others have an origin unknown --- my only evidence for their history is that I obtained them from the web back in the early 90s when I first had access, and many of them I hadn't even accessed before, as I only recently reverse engineered their data files to produce the bitmaps that my engine can load.

The animation system allows the following:
- None (immediate display)
- Slide (as you seen in my prior video)
- Fade (no motion, just fade on)
- Print (same as fade, except no fading!)
- Scale (this is a borrowed trick from the Space Harrier arcade)
