Hey guys. What are your guys' projects as of late, if any?
Personally, I've been working on my Nekoweb site and been trying to work towards a comment section as well as posting animations to it.
Also I've been working on a few games, but I don't really got much to show for it so far. More on that later though, maybe, if I remember.
Anyways, share some stuff you've been doing! I wanna see!

I'm working on an algorithm to detect times new roman adjacent fonts lol.
Started off as a joke about the "None So Vile" album cover using the font. Turned into a strong desire for being able to identify times new roman in my spotify library.
It's mostly just an image processing task, with a bit of graph theory. Assisted by the spotify api.
I'm playing around with some different approaches. But the idea is to do template matching, either on the entire image, or using OCR to find bounding boxes. Then use that to align letter masks to the image in the "best way". I.e. good matches, similar font sizes, correct order of letters, similar and reasonable horizontal spacing, etc.
I can't really decide on the best measure for determining the quality of the match, so I'm probably just gonna use several haha.

Oh damn that's really cool actually, I don't use Spotify but I am a total Font Freak(tm) so I can totally relate to being curious about that kind of thing.
I kinda wish I had the fun in me to try and just make random programming tasks for myself like that but I only really keep my programming to games and this one time I was making an animation editor thingy for a game I was making.
I'm still making both, though lmao. I should stop procrastinating on that.
