yeh, that's an issue with low pixel games. because my main sprites are so small, in order for the text to not be half of the screen it also needs to be small. The font is only 5px X 5px which is craaazy. There might be a way to use a different canvas layer for a bigger font but ui elements and canvas layers aren't my strongest suit.
Thank you for your nice comment though. It will always be great to hear that my efforts were appreciated, especially when I worked as hard as I did on this project.
