WOW!
WOW! colorful text bounces around the screen - control what happens to it with the mouse.
left click - bring the text to you and drag it around
right click - clones of the text appear to deceive you
middle click - math gets fuckled and the text goes on new adventures
right+left click - text and clones undergo rapid color cycling
if you want to play around with this yourself, the relevant variables are at the very top of BOOT():
txtt = "the text you want to display"
scale = text scaling, lower this to 2 or 1 if you want more words on screen
clock = speed of text drawing, 1 is fastest
clock2 = speed of background drawing, 1 is fastest

advent diary day 7:
i actually had a lot of fun with tic80 this time... working on the scale of "make the screen do something" was a lot more palatable to me.
i think i started having the most fun when i just let things be weird and glitchy - i thought it was so cool when i removed the screen clearing function, and i like my background drawing process's imperfectness. that inspired some of the weirder mouse-interaction effects : )
adding a text inputter was a bit above my paygrade for one day, but i would've liked there to be a prompt and some built-in options so you don't have to dig into the code to alter the marquee itself
