I'm working on my first game; it's called Green River I. Stupid name, but all the cool names are used . Suggestions? Ideas? Tips?

(I used to have some screenshots of the menu here)

I'm not a rocket scientist or anything, but shouldn't you make the menu screens last?

well, the menu screens do look pretty cool. and for some reason the name gives me the creeps, but in a good way (well, depending on what your game is like, i'm imagining something disturbing).

oh, wow. insignificantpunks.cjb.net. we like orange treble clef notes, just for future reference.

no: website for progs yet.

Most people don't work on the menu screens first. But, I use this specific system with a screen variable in the do loop, like this:



So I can just set the screen variable to 3 instead of 1 and when I run the program, it'll start in the main game.

I find it very difficult to program the screens last, because I run into object problems. Just my Style

And thanx for the screen compliments, NightGiant and Jeku

If your looking to do something different already - you could get all technical with the weapons. I reckon that a blueprint of each gun with each guns specs listed, then the 3D weapon on top of the blueprint would look great (like a weapon info screen). Folk often like to see what weapon they're using, games like R6 rarely give you any propper details before deciding on a weapon - sometimes your not even privilaged with a picture.
