Alright it's been a year, I think we can reveal the "imgui sega balls!" lore...
Skyth: okay time to get that font texture uploaded

Attached is a screenshot of the Dear ImGui Demo window. The font texture hasn't been loaded, so all of the letters are rectangles.

Michael: I read one of the squares as Balls
Michael: my mind making up words is this how ai generates text in images

Hyper: Imgui sega balls!

Attached is a crop of Skyth's screenshot showing the words "imgui says hello!", misinterpreted as "imgui sega balls!" due to the shape of the rectangles forming the letters.

More pre-release Unleashed Recompiled options menu stuff: it was originally going to include a drop-down for configuring the keyboard layout. We ended up dropping it during Beta 1, as we felt it would be better to have it remap actions in a later release instead, rather than buttons.

From concept to release: Achievements This was much less of a headache in comparison. I implemented these within a few days, as by this point the framework we'd developed for the options menu made it much easier to start on new stuff.

From concept to release: Options This by far took the most amount of time and iterations to implement, but by late November, things started looking closer to final. Development on this started with Skyth alone, before it turned into a full blown effort from everyone on the team.

I thought it'd be fun to outline (literally) how much of a hack the custom UI in the recomp is. Anything surrounded by an outline is drawn using Dear ImGui and isn't rendered by the game.

Quick update on this, I made the borders mirrored and added a faded letterbox when narrower than 4:3 instead, so it doesn't look as horrific as it used to.

After almost a month of work, the '06 recomp options menu has been merged! This comes with a few new options, along with some improved existing ones to make them work at runtime. It's still not 100% there yet though, as many of the video settings available are yet to be implemented on demand.
