Dialogue changes

I've spent a lot of time today redesigning the dialogue message box, changing text colors for messages as well as picking a new serif font (I can already hear some typophiles moaning in the distance). The reason for the redesign and going from white text on a dark background to dark text on bright background is to make it legible for as many people as possible. It was spurred on by my own reaction to reading a lot of my own dialogue over time ingame; I am prone to migraines, and I ended up getting a migraine due to all the bright text on dark background contrast going on. Also, I think the new dialogue boxes and animations look much nicer. I've added an animation for the dialogue box to indicate when the subject changes in the midst of conversation, making it more obvious to the player. Since there's animations involved, I decided to make a video out of these changes:
