FUZE TYPE - Typing Sprint for Switch
-
Amazing stuff!
Did you try the workaround that spikey suggested for the software keyboard?
I would love to play this without having to go through the hassle of locating and plugging in an external keyboard first...
-
@vinicity the work around would work, but would require a ludicrous amount of time. Logically, creating my own software keyboard would have to be the next step, which I may eventually do, but it isn't my primary focus at the moment. Eventually it will be though! For now, I'm sorry for any inconvenience. In the very least the default keyboard works with the joycons, that's good, right?
-
Today I added a few more quotes. I implemented the quote browser as well, so you can now search for the ID of a quote. Quotes now also display their ID on the results screen. I added some more keyboard controls to the game to try and free your hands up from the controller. Ultimately full keyboard control is the hope but there are some limitations with that, I need to come up with a solution to not having access to the full keyboard. For now here's a preview of the new Themes feature!
-
Is there no way to use screen sized images and drawtarget and drawimage and stuff to resize the screen without using setmode()?
-
@toxibunny There is, and that's how my pixel art game worked. Now that I think about it, I could draw to a 1920x1080 image, and then scale it down for 720p... That might mean I can use the software keyboard
-
But do you really train on a software keyboard? I suggest just to wait until there is a fix. This project is perfect like this!
-
I came up with a solution, no scaling nonsense, the entire game just moves around to fit your current resolution. This means you are a bit zoomed in and things are cramped, but it also means it works, natively, with the software keyboard. Plus, it doesn't effect the docked mode at all. Here's a clip!
-
@spikey Thank you! I managed to find a solution (above) that works without messing with the game itself.

Enjoy! As always please reply with any suggestions or quotes. Quotes must be 1000 characters or less and have it's credit next to it.
-
Sorry about the wait, had to change one of the quotes before it could be approved. It's been re-submitted for approval with the offending word removed.
-
Did you swap it out for ‘dastard’?
-
@toxibunny Haha I wish, no I replaced it with [...], just cause (I believe) it's how you cut words out of a quote.

Alright, Fuze Type is now live! I'll update the previous posts to reflect that:
