   I checked, and annoyingly this class scene from Snatcher is implemented as just some BG tiles of these exact words, there's no font here to generatorize.

     It's only missing MQXZ
     I'll manually extract it and see if I can draw half-decent replacements for those

     @foone You could always trace down whatever version of Deluxe Paint or Amiga OS somebody used to create this and grab the fonts they used for it.

     honestly if you look closely at it you can tell it's not a font.

     The O in "OF" is different than the O in "CORRUPTION" and "TO" and "WHO"

     that's the kind of thing that shouldn't happen with fonts but can easily happen with humans slinging pixels around.

     @anselmschueler it's way easier to see if you delete the background black. Part of the dark border on the O is missing from the right side, but only in the word "OF"

     @Video_Game_King extracting the fonts from those sorts of things (so I can easily figure out when games use them) has been on my TODO for a while!

     I need to build a tool that'll show me all Death Generator fonts FOR ONE LETTER at once.
     like "show me every pixel art Q" so I can steal bits of their design while trying to fudge this "O" into a "Q"

     I mean, it's not a million miles off...

     It's 11369 pixels off, to be exact.

     my code has (depending on how you count), 2-4 different ways to handle per-letter kerning adjustments. I'm sure that's a reasonable number to have

     I'm now going WORD BY WORD and manually fixing the kerning for each letter pair.

     save me

     I can now generate the word "THIS" entirely correctly.

     You will note this is the first word of the text.

     Are you sure that's not CYBERPL'NKS? I'm guessing this is a Klingon thing, yeah?

     I'm up to "CYBERPUNKS" now.
     The "E" in "CYBERPUNKS" is different than both the ones in "DEDICATED" so I'm just gonna mark that down as "they made a mistake"

     I wonder if there's a letter-pair pangram.
     Like I've already got it doing a pangram so I can see all the letters in context and adjust the kerning, but there's all kinda of letter combos not used in them.

     Finally got the kerning into a halfway decent form, and just had to give up on some pixel-accuracy because THEY'RE NOT ACCURATE EITHER
