      @UDb23 I've made some Pull Requests to your repository adding some of your files I have here.

      I already adjusted the filenames with the conventions we discussed before.

      To accept the Pull Requests you have to merge them. On the respective Pull Request page, press the "Merge pull request" button:

          Except that BurgerTime should not have a space in its name ;-) check here:

          Funny. Some of the marketing materials, cabinet art etc. use BurgerTime, but the owner's manual has a space. Oh well.

          My 4-player cocktail style cabinet built as a custom "roadcase"

            @caver01 Good Point. Renamed to BurgerTime (no space) as in the game marquee.

                @HurricaneFan You're lucky. It is already the next in list and almost finished. Will release today.

                  @meleu For some games multiple overlays with different game area size can be available: sidebars only vs scale integer, as an example. These require not only different overlay image but also different cfg files. How do we manage these cases in the repository ? Subfolders of the specific game folder called "Option x" (x is num of the optional overlay) ?
                  Subfolder files would then follow same naming convention as files in the game folder.

                    I'm OK with this convention. ;-)

                                    @UDb23 Thank you for all the hard work you're putting into these overlays. You are just about done with that top 11 list. Have you thought about what other arcade games you might make overlays for?

                                      • cosmic guerilla
