Diving In - Introductions
and Menus
How many games have you switched on? The first thing you see is the company's
(on most cases, companies) logo(s)? From there, it goes into an introduction
animation, and then on to the main menu. In this chapter, we are going to discuss
the following:
•
Logo animation
•
Creating main menu
•
Introducing animation
Don't worry, we are going to get into the gameplay soon! First, people have to see
who created this masterpiece! On to Logo animation!
Logo animation
The one unfortunate thing about GameSalad is that it doesn't yet allow videos to
be imported. This isn't a problem though; because we can do all sorts of animations
within GameSalad and have them look pretty good. To start off, we are going to do
a very quick logo animation. I know it's not the most exciting topic, but it does come
in handy.
