        @Rookervik It would be cool if you guys make splashscreens to be shown when the game is loading, (just like the system's launching images). This feature was implemented recently, do you remember?

        Maybe some of the already used games could be revisited for this purpose. ;-)

        An image for a game series that embraces several games from a serie and its various systems versions would be cool too.

          @meleu Wow, does SeaQuest even have a title screen? LOL. Would probably need to do the cartridge sticker

              Hmm, wonder if this is too plain:

                Welp, if you're happy with it the way it was, then this is the finalized one. This time with more bubbles!

                          I have a cool idea for a splash screen, might be really difficult, but could you do a pixel-ized animated version of the GameCube intro and of course instead of it saying Nintendo GameCube you would replace it with "RetroPie" or "RetroPie Game System" and also use this version of the song?

                          If you cant do it I would understand since you might be busy with more important things.

                            @BennySpaceCore Hmmm, it's not that I don't have the time to make this. I just don't know where to start. LOL. I'd have to animate a box in 3 directions I guess. Then create a game in Construct that would move the box around the logo. I don't even know how to go about it. LOL

                              @Rookervik I found a video of someone who already made a pixel intro for the GameCube, do you think you can maybe replace the Nintendo GameCube part and animate it the same way as it pops up and make it say retro pie? It should be far easier and if you credit them I sure they would be alright with it. Here's the vid

                                They ran some video filters on this to make it look pixelated. I think it looks very dirty. And if I were going to do the gamecube bios splash, I'd want to change the G logo into an R logo. I wouldn't want to rip Nintendo off directly.

                                  @Rookervik your right, maybe make a 2D panel that flips out into a R to the GameCube theme? I would just love to see a GameCube related splash screen.

                                    @Rookervik i love your seaquest splashscreen. I am a huge fan of the 2600 games box and label art. Yes us old nerds love this stuff. Yars revenge would be cool. It is my favorite old school back in the day atari game. Warlords being my second (Lots of cool homebrews. Halo 2600 and medieval mayhem are my favorite)

                                      @edmaul69 Yars' Revenge has an incredibly detailed cover art. I'm not sure I could reproduce this in any decent amount of time. Yars' would be more of a commission style art. Unless I steal this other guys' Yars vector and just slap it on a background. LOL.
