Cursors

10 years ago
Is it preferred to change the cursor of the user or to not? Does anyone know any substantial problems if I do? Would it enhance or distract from the storygame? Is there an easier way to do it than a CSS stylesheet? If so, what?

You could do it in JavaScript, though it's basically the same thing: document.body.style.cursor = 'cursor';

I'm personally not a fan of custom cursors, but as long as it's a relatively simple pointer and not some overly complex sprite, I don't see a reason why you shouldn't.

I wouldn't have a problem.

You made all the linky text black! How dare you! And everything's centered!

 

But yeah, the courser it cool. If it fits the tone of the storygame, it would enhance. If it doesn't, then it distracts.
