Crusenho's Complete UI Essential Pack is CC BY 4.0 -- redistributable and
commercial-friendly, confirmed from the License.txt the pack itself ships --
so unlike the two bdragon packs a subset is committed: twelve PNGs, 48 KB,
under assets/sprites/ui/. Only what is used, because each committed PNG costs
a Godot .import sidecar and a directory nothing references is one nobody
prunes.
UiTheme builds a Theme in code from it -- button states, panels, line edits --
and every screen roots itself through UiTheme.themed_root(). The HUD's bars are
the pack's frame with a tinted fill, drawn as three horizontal slices because
Godot's nine-patch lives on nodes and the HUD is drawn rather than built from
controls. Inventory slots use the pack's slot art at exactly twice the source
size; a non-integer scale on a 1px border reads as a wobble along every edge.
The credits screen is the other half of the request and it is a licence
obligation, not a nicety: two packs are now CC BY, which asks for attribution
"in any reasonable manner", and a markdown file in a source repo is not
reasonable for someone who downloaded a build. Settings -> Credits shows every
source with its terms and a link to the licence text. test_credits.gd asserts
CREDITS.md and docs/ASSETS.md name every entry, so the three cannot drift.
Two things found by actually looking at the screen, which is the point:
- The FIRST version of this styled nothing. A Control inherits its theme from
Control ANCESTORS only, and the chain breaks at the first plain Node or
CanvasLayer -- which is every screen here. get_window().theme set the
property, changed nothing, and read as correct. check.sh, 458 tests and a
clean smoke run all passed with the entire interface unstyled. The theme
test now instantiates every screen and asks what its buttons resolve.
- The settings screen showed Fire bound to the right mouse button, because
the test suite was writing the player's real user://settings.cfg --
rebinding calls save() and nothing had redirected the path. Settings.path
is now redirectable, the fixture points it at a scratch file, and a test
asserts the default is still the player's own.
tools/screenshot.tscn is what found both. It boots the client windowed and
saves the menus, the HUD, settings and credits. Manual, needs a display, and
the only thing in the project that can tell you the interface rendered.
check.sh clean, 460 tests, SMOKE PASS, all four diagnostics green.

Terrain, actors, boss and bullets are sprites now, and four sounds play off
server events. 548KB total across seven files, out of 3.9GB of source packs.
- src/view/art.gd holds every atlas rect and sound path in one table, copied
from the 0x72 pack's own tile_list. Scattering coordinates through draw calls
would make re-cutting the atlas a hunt, and a wrong rect invisible.
- Bullets get one MultiMesh per kind rather than one overall: a
MultiMeshInstance2D carries a single texture and each kind needs a different
region of the sheet. Four draw calls, no custom shader passing UVs through
per-instance data.
- src/view/sfx.gd is a 16-voice round-robin pool. Bullet-hell fire rates mean
sounds overlap constantly, and identical sounds landing within two frames are
collapsed so a ring hitting eight bullets is a bang rather than clipping.
Every sound is triggered by a server event, never a local guess, so what you
hear matches what happened.
Audio was converted, not copied: the pack ships 24-bit/96kHz masters averaging
2MB. Downsampled to 16-bit/44.1kHz mono, silence-trimmed, and the shoot sound
hard-capped to 0.30s -- it came out at 2.03s, against a fire cooldown of 0.12s,
which would have smeared held fire into noise.
tests/unit/test_art.gd checks what cannot be eyeballed here: every atlas rect
lands inside its texture, every animation frame of a strip fits (the last frame
is what runs off the sheet, not the first), there is a sprite per bullet kind
and per enemy visual, and no sound is long enough to stack badly. A wrong atlas
coordinate does not error -- it silently draws the wrong pixels.
Licence sources recorded in docs/ASSETS.md now that they are known. All four
are free versions and four rows still say "confirm at source": free itch packs
vary on credit and commercial use, and there is no credits screen yet.
155 tests (was 146). check.sh, test.sh and smoke.sh pass.
