No worries SirCrow if bugs surface after publication - get it to where you're satisfied, and then the Librarian will immortalize this project in Samples once the dust is settled.

I think I'm satisfied with how it works on my Ubuntu system, but I can't tell how well it runs on Windows.  For instance, I don't know how to refer to alternative fonts so that the player won't have to settle for the old _FONT 14 or similar.  For example, what would be a good Windows substitute for _LOADFONT("/usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation/LiberationSans-Bold.ttf", 24) ?
When running under Windows, does the on-screen text look anything like the text in this screenshot?  I'd like to fix up this fonts issue very nicely, but I'll try not to worry too much about it and maybe just upload it as it is now.  Thanks.

The fix is simple, add the font file to the package and repath the load of it the same as all other files in package.

Is there a difference in format between a font file for Windows and one for Linux?
