@Striderx99 As the original creator has not been here since 2018 and the theme has not been touched on GitHub since 2017, the likelihood is very low for any updates.
But can download the theme here and have at it. Make it your own.
There are plenty of resources out there to learn how to theme. And starting with a base theme makes it easier.

@mitu Yup.

I have taken this a step further: fbterm allows using any TrueType fonts.

The screen is a 10" LCD from Pimoroni:

Here's the screenshot, it shows the same thing as the photo:

@mitu thank you so much for sending that over. I took a look at that at the time but ran into a couple of issues that would benefit from others' inputs as the changes to make it work don't seem to be trivial and will likely imply some changes in other areas of the code, so I'd rather not do that without others' perspective.

@jdrassa this is the issue that prompted our chat a while back, for context. I may take this on later or at least add comments to the issue that was just created so that we can discuss things there.

Thanks all.

Thanks, I'm trying out the fonts.

By the way, for anyone missing the cursor in MC: in my case, exiting EmuStation and running "mc" from the terminal makes the cursor visible. Perhaps it's ES that hides it.

Just thought i'd mention it here. OTF works natively. No need for conversion.

@rookervik indeed - humour on my side and hype-mongering
fonts and illustrations were made by my friend

the font is free to use nonetheless
i bet he'd be interested in contributing specifically to retropie in one form or another

@ChristianG ha! That is far from true.....I just try to learn as much as possible. Take a look at some other threads were I am asking others for help with coding and scripts.

I will have a look at your other thread.

CRT... I watched a fun video on those TVs before... just incase anyone is interested, here it is.
