Have you tried other shapes? Dividing the square by the diagonal should not have this problem, and you're even drawing a simpler shape (triangle vs rectangle).
Great project! I love the idea of extending Blender to use it as a custom game engine.
this is a great abuse of GSUB tables just van rossum’s rubik’s cube is another recent example of font layout gone too far: https://twitter.com/justvanrossum/status/1340960087750402048...

Sorry, waaay off-topic, but I've never seen such incredible D&D dice!
Is it just me or is the game unwinnable?

I have a question regarding how you render "gray" pixels. You said that you use rectangles, because "dithered" pattern had low performance. But the rectangles cause "scanlines", which I presume are because of imprecise mapping to physical pixels. Have you tried other shapes? Dividing the square by the diagonal should not have this problem, and you're even drawing a simpler shape (triangle vs rectangle).

Amazing! I absolutely love projects like this, where you put a game in somewhere it clearly wasn't meant to be. I made a game you play in your file browser[0] before, and I have another idea planned using windows error dialogs. 0: https://wheybags.com/dungeons_and_directories/
This is years beyond the statute of limitations so I can finally talk about it - in my youth I broke into one of LANL's servers for kicks; some Lotus/IBM Domino machine, saw nothing of interest except for a project directory which even the admin didn't have access to... I didn't want to escalate privileges any further because it'd require permanent changes and would probably trip a flag - but then I found a bizarre folder.
Someone coded a series of directories within Domino and made a maze game, maybe a Zork 'lite'. I spent a few minutes exploring and got bored.

They could use the CPAL and COLR tables to turn each glyph / frame of the game into multiple RGBA layers.
