+### Features
+
+- **Overlay text is UTF-8, and a font atlas can carry any script** — `ludic.render3d`'s `ov_text`,
+  `ov_text_w` and `ov_text_wrap` decode UTF-8 instead of drawing bytes 32–126, so a game can show
+  Turkish, German, Polish, Greek, Cyrillic or whatever its atlas holds.
+
+  - `font.json` may list the atlas's code points in `"codes"` (atlas order). An atlas without it is
+    read as before: consecutive code points from `"first"`, so existing ASCII fonts keep working.
+  - A code point the atlas lacks draws as `?`; a control character as a space; a malformed or
+    cut-off sequence as one `?`, so a string sliced mid-character still draws.
+  - `overlay_font(dir)` loads or swaps the atlas at run time, for a language that brings its own font.
