In fact you get to do much of that with TTF fonts.

I use this technique in some of my other games. The next part in my tutorial series will be using my FontsUnit.pas I use in all my games. (well, a simplier version anyway)

I'll send you a copy of my canceled 'Subject 33' game's source so you can have a look at it. It's fairly simple in concept so you can se how you could start your own if you need more features.
