TAO: Main menu screenshot contest!
« on: February 12, 2011, 11:01:39 pm »
So, TAO: Unleashed needs a main menu? And since I fail at making anything larger than 1x1, I'm asking YOU to help me out! Best one wins their username/name in the game.

Okay, so the basic idea is it has to have 3 things:
1) The name in it.  Creative, but readable.  TAO is a lot bigger than unleashed.
2) Room for me to have 3 options "Play", "Credits", and "Exit".  There will be a sword about 8 (length) x 5 (height) pointing to each of the Play/Credits/Exit options (Now known as PCE for simplicity).  So, anything like that would work.  If you want to try your hand at the sword, be my guest.
3) It's gotta be very interesting.  The idea is "beasts" unleashed.  It also has the connotation of being Light vs. Dark.  So, anything with that is nice.

I'm looking for monochrome, but if you can give me 3 lvl grayscale, I'll accept that as well.

Thank you, and good luck!

EDIT: Also, full TI-83/84 screen is the size that needs to be made.

I like it too, except I don't know what's under Unleashed either.  Otherwise, looks nice!

I think it's just abstract art :P

I tried making a menu twice, but failed twice too :(

Hmm, can you add something based on the one-tail?:

That would be interesting.  I just don't really fully like the abstract, ya know.  It looks kinda like some snail coming out saying rawr. ;-)  Otherwise, it's nice.

How about this?  Also, if you wanted, maybe have instead of static fire for the title screen, I could whip up some animated and dynamic flames? :]

What about the white pixels in the black area blink?
