Add a one pixel gap between each line in textboxes #1124

Closed TerryCavanagh closed 6 months ago

Changes:

This change adds a one pixel gap between each line in textboxes, though only in the main game for now. It addresses this issue: https://github.com/TerryCavanagh/VVVVVV/issues/1051

A few screenshots of how it looks:

So! There was a lot of discussion about whether or not this change was a good idea on the discord, which is very fair - it does change the look of the game pretty noticeably, and it breaks the C64 8x8 grid. I found myself going back and forth on it a little bit - so I figured the best thing to do was just to try it, and make it a bit less hypothetical. I'll distribute a compiled version on the discord for easy testing.

Now that I've done it, I really like it! I actually find it quite jarring to go back to the zero gap textboxes in custom levels:
