Customizable Message Box

This UberASM works like as originally message box. but it customable border and box size. and it can change text color pet a character. and it isn't hijack original messages.

I made this in May/June 2024, and it is not finished.
The reason this is unfinished is because there are still some issues left.
1. All messages must be 256×n bytes.
2. When the player opens this message box while riding Yoshi and presses the X/Y buttons, Yoshi will stick its tongue out.
3. When big message box opened, the screen blinks. It uses Stripe image format. I think it should uses DMA.

And if I get a chance, I plan to add the following features:
This is lovely and pretty useful! Don't worry about being a beginner to ASM. I was also (more or less) a beginner when I made my VWF patch and it was a great learning experience.

The third message box kinda resembles the text boxes in Super Mario Bros 3 Advance, I like it! If you want a little suggestion on how you might be able to fix the flickering: You could try displaying the message box over multiple frames (for example: first the top half, then the bottom half). That'll usually prevent flickering, and visually, it won't really be very noticable to players.
Feel free to visit my website/blog - it's updated rarely, but it looks pretty cool!
