Is there anything like this where it's only coloring the text and not the background of the font? Hoping to find something like ascii-gen [0,1] but for video

If I’m understanding correctly, you should be able to do that by unchecking “Bg Gradient” in the GUI menu.

Then change the font colors as you wish.
