And since he was kind enough to let me swipe the title screen, I'll be handing him a copy of the original English script so he can translate that to French.
We need more international collaborations, people. ;P

A couple that still have awhile to go before completion, but I thought I'd request them.  The Legend of Peach Boy  Nadia - The Secret of Blue Water (sorry if the image is kind of crappy. I believe the game uses the 256 pixel wide mode, but Kega Fusion stretches it to 320x240, and stored the screenshot at double size. So, I tried to reverse it.) (somebody able to do better at converting the official logo?)  |

I used Gens to get a screenshot.  I know it's halfassed, but I can't make it bigger without knowing just how many tiles I have available, or if I can only use one color or more. The font (Georgia) is similar, but not exactly the same. I can still do more things to it, like reducing the space between the letters, or making them a bit more streamlined. |

Is it worth mentioning that the title says ãµã—ãŽã®ã†ã¿ã®ãƒŠãƒ‡ã‚£ã‚¢ (Nadia of the Mysterious Sea)? >_>"";

Georgia isn’t really made for logos. Trajan or Caslon would be more like it. Even better would be imitating the Japanese logo’s style, but that does take a good deal of artistic vision. Kind of wispy, that brush work. Is it worth mentioning that the title says ãµã—ãŽã®ã†ã¿ã®ãƒŠãƒ‡ã‚£ã‚¢ (Nadia of the Mysterious Sea)? >_>"";

They pulled stuff like that a lot back when Anno directed stuff. Evangelion has it for nearly every term of import (n番目ã®é©æ ¼è€… = nth Children, 使徒 = Angel, most episode titles have either a slightly-off translation or a tangentially-related term instead of a translation, etc.). For Eva in particular, the blame lies mostly in Anno’s vision for the series. |

Most of these logos are done with actual, physical ink and a brush, and are executed by master calligraphers who do it for a living. Digital fonts are right out!

The font (Georgia) is similar, but not exactly the same. I can still do more things to it, like reducing the space between the letters, or making them a bit more streamlined. AFAIK, Genesis tiles use a 4bpp format. My count is about 232 8x8 tiles available. (still need to work on compression, seems to be a different format than the compressed sprite and font tiles). I'm sure I can do it, just been working on formatting the scripts.) (Looking at a Gens savestate, uses almost a full page of 256 tiles - 2 16 tile rows - 6 tiles on another - a couple blank tiles to be safe) |

*shrug* They could be used as a starting point. |
