Feature Breakdown – Speech Bubbles
To go along with the distinctive black and white art style comic speech bubbles were implemented with multiple choice dialogue options.
However, there were some issues getting the speech bubbles to spawn correctly. Mainly they would not look like they were coming from the character, but spawning in space. This was because the speech bubbles scaled to fit the text.
A custom solution was made to keep track not just of the original spawn point, but as the spawn points of the previous speech bubbles moved through space all the other bubbles would have to up date where there new spawn point was and if it needed to be on the left or right side.
The end solution looks fantastic and correct.
