Thats actually a background scene, not the main menu screen lol But I get what you mean, this seems a bit too comical.

Edit: Ah well I'll save this one for a future game, maybe for Halloween :P

Oh wait, wrong thread.
Or maybe not


That image is just fit for a cheesy Halloween story. May I reccomend something a bit darker?

Oh damn "This is Halloween" popped into my head while seeing my image lol

And of course, all suggestions are most welcome. I also agree, the bg kind of kills the mood lol

That menu background looks really awesome and spooky and a lot better than the first one. I would suggest possibly using a different colour scheme for the text and buttons though; it may be hard to see on some monitors.

While making this game, I feel like something is watching me O_O

Now THAT menu looks great. Like GeneDNC said though, it might be hard to read. I think the best way to go is to make it less transparent or to just chose a slightly less dark color scheme.

Yup thats a good idea. However, I might go the extra mile and learn how to customize buttons (I'm sure there was a tutorial here somewhere). I have time, so no reason to be half-assed about this XD

Alright fooled around with the colour scheme a bit. Look more clear now?

Progress so far

Props/BG: 100%
Sprites: 100%
Story: 20%


Still trying to experiment with the story, see what works and what doesn't.

Creepy haunted house? Check.
History connected to WWII and Nazis? Check.
Main character with fedora+monocle combo? I'm sold.

If you feel like something is definitely watching you now while making this game, then please note that it's just me :lol: The new color scheme for the main menu suits the mood well, and the characters are interesting. I have a problem with Rosy's design though; she's just asking for someone to attack her in the middle of the night...
