Credit's screen spacing/frame practice

[SaintChairface]

Is it weird to say that I'm actually hyped for the new credits screen?

Instead of our classic scrolling shooter, we're getting a screen where the credits scroll past and your character has to hit the names as they fly past.

This is actually pretty legit. The density and spacing of the names on the screen give the player a unique opportunity to test out different timing and spacing and see which names light up. It was one thing to be able to look at frame data, but to give the players and in-game opportunity to get a feel for it is pretty sweet.

It's actually pretty similar to the end credits for New Super Mario Brothers Wii, where the players can run around, break blocks, and gather coins. I'm betting that's where Sakurai got the idea.

It's definitely really cool. Also, Ness.
