That UI... 😌
There's a quirk in the specific version of EFPSE I used; for some reason you can't change the default menu font colour... even after you actually change the default menu colour. Other versions don't have this problem, but do have issues elsewhere, and I was in a hurry, so I used the version which I knew could have projectile-firing enemies.
(I haven't tried the latest version, mind...)
That said, I really should have thought twice before making the menu background the same colour as the font... 🤦♂️
