How do I use a sprite font

hi,

I tried but I cannot get sprite font to work. I downloaded fonts from http://www.1001fonts.com/free-fonts-for ... l-use.html. I went to layout, inserted the spritefont object but I cannot get text to be inserted from the font I downloaded.

This is what I want to achieve:

1. Have a list of chosen words so that when a bullet collides with a particular object, one of the words will display and then fade.

2. For each instance of that particular object, a different word should appear when the bullet collides with it.

3. The object must be spawning every 5 seconds and each time the bullets collides with it, a different word appears and fades

Thanks

Those are not sprite fonts, just fonts. You can load them on your desktop and use the tutorial to make sprite fonts.

You know there is a Tutorial section for that kind of basic stuff, right?
