DeathScreenTweaks

Note: This mod will auto-enable the "Just, Don't..."/"Do Not..." in-game setting; it is necessary for this mod's most important feature (read below) to have a visible effect.

Various tweaks to the "New Best" screen. (Formerly DisturbingNewBests.)

Features:

Hide the rewards animation.
Hiding the entire "New Best" screen. (For the three people who want to do that.)
Changing the font of the "Level Complete" text message.

And now, for the big one...

Replaces "New Best" messages with slightly "better" ones, including those of your own choice.

Allows three sets of messages: a default set, custom text from the config folder, and (ad-friendly) Brandon Rogers quotes.

Custom messages defined from the custom.txt file within the mod's config directory will be formatted as follows: - lorem ipsum - in order to distinguish them from the default set of messages.

As tempting as it would be to have a regex filter to moderate messages found in custom.txt, this mod will not be pulling double duty by attempting to solve the Scunthorpe problem.

Quotes originated from a variety of sources, including various members of the Geode SDK Discord server, xkcd, Brandon Rogers, and Adam Neylan.

Logo contributions and text linewrapping support by sofabeddd.

Level featured in logo.png and demoOne.png: Unnamed 84 by 4y4.

Built-in quotes moderated by CatXus and alk.

Original mod idea by actualkanyewest.

Rebrand to DeathScreenTweaks for consistency with LoadingScreenTweaks and EndscreenTweaks.

Technically, this is the initial release for the Geode index, but there have been several notable changes between v1.0.0 and v1.1.0 that it's best to release a new version now to make sure everyone updates to this version.

v1.0.0

Initial release (for GitHub).

The recommended way to install mods is through the in-game mod loader. You will have to manually install the .geode files you get from this page.

Some mods also require other mods as dependencies; you will need to find and install them yourself.
