Ooh! It looks nice. :) Not so sure about the gap between settings and quit unless that's where a bonus/extra screen will end up.

Just a random question after playing; where did you get the music from? I recognise a few tracks from 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors, but the rest is a mystery.

Hmm, I swear I heard some in there earlier, but on another examination, I'm wrong. Sorry about the confusion.

Finally got this bastard to work:

Now you can check the rules of the Players after it's been stated. Might do something like this for the rules as well (and will probably make me cry fewer tears of blood since it'll just be 1 image and no need for ifs and other data like that)

YEEEEEEE!!! That screen for checking the the rules looks awesome and very helpful! ;u;
/quietlysobsatthebeauty

As for the NVL screen, it looks okay in your screenshot because the bg is just black dark grey. I'm curious to see it in action while there are characters/environment in the background.

As usual, the GUI looks awesome. I have a little problem with the red text, though. That might just be me, but it's somehow a bit uneasy on the eyes X_X

I notced that the red tends to look odd on some monitors (Tested it on my brother's computer, and saw it does look a bit bright) however the laternative would be to darken it, which I find difficult to do since it might make the text unreadable. So a compramize has to be made.

The screen is only as useful as long as you believe everyone is telling the truth about their Rule and objective :V

Here's the NVL screen on another location:

Hehe, of course I don't think everyone is telling the truth since someone definitely has the ability to lie ;3

I think the NVL screen looks okay with the characters/environments! The only thing is that it feels like the bottom left corner is so empty since the top right is so full?? Have you tried flipping the left border vertically (and if you did/do try, does it look weird?) As it is, it feels top heavy since a lot of the pattern is near the top of the screen which is also where the focus is for text/character's faces so I feel as though you should balance the NVL borders instead of mirroring it.
I could just be me (.__.)
