What For Bad Items

Description
This took an unexpected amount of work to make! As it turns out, pausing the game without actually pausing the game is kind of difficult, and it's still a little janky, but it works, I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This mod overlays that one stupid Earthbound meme over the screen whenever you walk into a room with a Quality 0 item.

After you've seen the joke more than once, there will also be a popup saying that you can press Space to return to the game. Though, to be clear, you can skip the joke even if it's your first time seeing it.

Also, quick side story: half of the reason I was able to make this mod was because of a blog post that I found about the DDLC Repentance mod while Googling for answers, since it was literally the only source I could find for rendering images on top of the GUI. Here is a link to said blog post (read it! It's funny!): https://cohost.org/oatmealine/post/1392947-that-time-i-worked-o

Blind items were working for me while I was testing this, but if the issue sticks around, let me know! As for the second half, the music shortening was kinda last minute, so I didn't get the chance to thoroughly test it (plus I usually play with sound off so I didn't notice :p) but it should be fixed now!

No worries about being a bother, by the way. If I don't get feedback, I have no way of realizing that my mods are broken besides finding bugs myself, so feel free to speak up if something's wrong!

Hello again! Sorry for bothering you so much, but it's about the last update. First of all: after this update, blind items again is revealed that they are qual 0 because of the instant "what". Second thing: because of this build up, music from the mod is getting overriden by natural "treasure room discovery" sound, so you don't hear it until the sound is done. I love that the new version is without the build-up, but music was a big part of it. Would you be able to see, if that's possible to override the sound with music? Again, much appreciate your work!

Yeah, I'll admit that the build-up is a bit much. I just pushed a new version that does it right away.

I don't have words for how much I LOVE this premise, but I kinda wish it didn't include the 4ish second build-up and just did the 'what' immediately -- the instant punchline would both improve the comedic effect and waste less time lol
