Life is like a hurricane
Here in Retropie
Joysticks, Consoles, Video Games
It's a retro-blur!
Might solve a problem
Or rewrite xmls

@lilbud That one looks really nice. What game is it from? The main font looks almost like Indiana Jones, but I can't place the background.

@mattrixk Ducktales Remastered. I wanted to do the NES version but I suck with custom pixel art.

[mattrixk]

@lilbud I used to love ducktales on the original gameboy. I think it was my favourite game when I was a kid. I tried playing it again recently and I did not do well at all. More practice needed I guess. I remember hearing there was a remastered version. I'll have to check it out.

[lilbud]

@mattrixk It is on pretty much every platform. Plus REMASTERED soundtrack.

[mattrixk]

Ooh, xbox 360 and android versions. I'm going to have to get on that.

[lilbud]

@mattrixk I personally played it on Wii U and PC, Play with headphones

[lilbud]

Tron and Rocket League

Hi fellows!

I'm playing with the trick @Rookervik started here. It's a way to show custom images when launching a game (yeah, pretty much like what happens when "launch menu art" is enabled, but with a custom image rather than a scraped image for a specific game).

I made some tests using these last splashscreens @lilbud released. So I would like to make a request for you artists: splashscreens inspired in the systems (NES, SNES, MegaDrive, Atari 2600, etc.) and with that "press a button to configure" message (the message can be discrete :-) ).

[lilbud]

How about this?

[meleu]

I loved it!
I want to be the president of the @lilbud fan club!!

[lilbud]

Thanks, this is the first one made with Photoshop. The other ones will be out soon. School starts tomorrow for me. So they could take some time

9/9/99

This date was the release of the Sega Dreamcast, 17 years ago today. Was not going to miss this.

[lilbud]

@meleu Here is SNES

[meleu]

@lilbud really cool!!! I'm curious to see what you will do for atari 2600. :-D

May I act like that Bubble Buddy again? :-)

Actually I forgot to ask for it initially. Please, forgive me...

I feel like there's a missing message: "Launching the game..."

With only the "press a button to config", those fancy images look like a config procedure starting screen. (I didn't really mean it)

[lilbud]

@meleu Now let me act like Squidward

If you need anything else, PLEASE hesitate to ask

I will not do one of this for each system, I do not have time to do one for each of the 80 or so systems. I'll do A2600, Maybe you should ask edmaul69, he is doing a theme like this.

[lilbud]

@meleu Here is A2600

[edmaul69]

@lilbud they make an atari font that would match better with this pic.

@ edmaul69
For the Atari logo? or the game text?
