Terminal-Style Dialog for My Retro Platformer

Implemented a “Nexus Says” dialog system for cutscenes in Neon Signal.

Featuring:

⌨️ Typewriter text animation with terminal sound effect
🎨 Per-line custom fonts and spacing
🖱️ Interactive button with keyboard/gamepad support
✨ Smooth fade transitions and dim background overlay

Built with LibGDX and our custom game engine. The dialog supports color markup, auto-sizing based on content, and seamlessly integrates with our scripting system for cutscenes.
