SPEAKING OF MENUS...

Hey, I was just reading the other post on menus and it got me thinking of menu design.
Why doesn't everyone post a screenshot of the menu system for their game?
I've got two styles right now and I'm looking to add more.
This may have been done before, but I have been out of the loop for a while.
Here are my two menus. I'm thinking I may change them...

something fancy:

something a bit more minimalistic:

very minimalistic but for some reason i like these menus!
That first one looks great! Is that game related to Earthbound in anyway? Can't wait to play it!
Is it just me or have I been seeing alot of EarthBound style custom graphics here?

Graphically yes. :)

Umm... other than Chromatose I haven't seen anything with this style for a while.
I've seen tons in the screenshot thread(s). I mean, you did well drawing them and the game looks 4 awesomes (you're on their team right?) it's just that I'm not a fan of the style and I've been seeing it often in original spiting.
I think it's totally .adorable. Not really realistic, but you can do a lot with those simple pixels.
Custom graphics are already enough of an achievement.
And I don't think there are too many others in this vein, the kind I've been seeing a lot of is that old 8 bit Dragon Warrior and Ultima blockiness. Talk about dull.
Those old 8-bit graphics work nicely, but I really like the ones people draw themselves instead of copy from Dragon Warrior. Anything but dull. I hated Ultima's graphics too though. Actually, I hated Ultima for it's horrid controls and how you actually had to type things to NPCs.

I'd totally put mine up but its all placeholder graphics sooooo not purdy at all lol

And yes that's a show choice menu but it works and far better than any fancy ones that take a second to fade in and a second to fade out :P

On the other hand that would make a 40+ hour game easier to make...

My entire game is interfaced through a menu.



Pressing ESC just changes it to the system menu.



IT'S SO FANCY, EVEN I AM IMPRESSED.
WIP, the Knight menu's are really nice! I'd like to stay updated about that game.
And Feld, I really like your menu too.
