Really cool stuff!

#

I'd love to hear about your experience of building the UI. Did you make reusable components? Did you hardcore a lot of stuff? What did you learn in the process?

Yes, the elements (like button, looping text, the vertical text chain with openable panels, dropdown lists) are just general C++ classes consisting of things like sf::Text, Sf::Sprite and so on.
Its around 2500 lines of code to define everything I needed, independednt on the rest of the game, if that is what you meant.

#

I like that I am able to customize their behaviour.
But I was not editing the SFML libraries.
So I have at least, hopefully, improved my general C++ skills.

this is actually such a cool project. Are you a solo dev or a team?
