Possession v17 Released! (Text Resizing)V17 has been released. Demos probably won't be updated just for this. Basically the only changes are new settings for resizing the text.
UI Changes:
- New font size and tooltip font size settings.
- New setting to make the buttons on the sidebar bigger (independent of font size)
- Game cheats screen now resizes if the UI scale setting is changed.
- Added a menu button to the main game screen that can be clicked to pull up the "pause" menu.
- The health bar is now drawn in color, fading from green to red depending on how hurt you are.
- The "close" button icon is now a "back" button since that's always how I thought about it anyway, which is why it's in the top left. Hopefully this change will stop its location being a thing people get weird about.
Note: There's no limit on how big/small you can resize the text, so it's possible to make things overflow if you make the text very large, or have huge UI scaling or a tiny window, or something.
I've tested it out and it works fine for what I consider several reasonable sizes, but it's possible I overlooked something or forgot to update an obscure screen to work with different text sizes.
Please report any wonkiness (aside from setting it to extreme values as mentioned above) as a bug.
[ 2021-04-17 23:29:01 CET ] [ Original post ] Possession is a roguelike where you play as a ghost trying to make your way to the surface. You are incredibly frail, but have one advantage: you can possess the bodies of the monsters you encounter, and use their strength and abilities as your own. Hop from body to body as you attempt to make it back to the surface.
Features:

Dozens of possessable monsters, from the horrifying to the hilarious, with a wide variety of powers.

Special themed levels with unique hazards, creatures and layouts. Randomly generated, so each playthrough is different!

Item-less gameplay. The dead have no need for worldly possessions, they just slow you down.

Quick to pick up and play. Unlike most roguelikes, Possession doesn't require you to memorize dozens of weird key commands, or puzzle over confusing skill and ability lists before you start playing.

Entirely playable with just the keyboard, just the mouse, or a combination of the two.

Mod support! Add your own creatures, powers and special levels, or change the ones already there.
@ Choice between graphics or ASCII mode, for the oldschool roguelike fans.
