PS for people who can't, for some reason, write "NIEZWYCIĘŻONA": "SEMPER INVICTA" is an alternative title that you might use instead, please don't do "NIEZWYCIEZONA", it hurts my heart and ruins wordplay. thank you <3

The effects with the coloured text are so good!
thank you 💖 it's four layers of text overlaid on top of the original text (red, green, blue, and white), with RGB layers being slightly offset and the final white one being aligned with the original text
This is so fantastically done! The building urgency leading towards the end was actually chilling... kudos for making me actually feel like a city has gone yandere for me. But from a more grounded point of view, it was also just really... I'm not sure of the right term, emotional perhaps is the closest I can think of but isn't quite right, anyway, it was emotional to look across the city and think about the history. I have never been to Warsaw
though I've been to Krakow oncebut I could feel so many of the built-up emotions and scars left behind there through your words and the feeling of almost tangible building distress and panic. It was a really visceral experience.Speaking as someone who's read a ton about wartime Warsaw (and the Uprising in particular), this resonated with me quite a bit. It hits different when you're walking around the city while being fully aware of its history, and I think you captured a glint of that here. I might've shed a tear 🥲
