#Visuals #Game Page
Learning to create more visually pleasing pages for our games!
Here are a few things I learned/tried,, Hope it can help out some others:
-Creating a nice thematically fitting Backdrop
-Reworking a better-looking cover image. In this case one that is more fitting of the game's retro/cartridge aesthetic. I looked at examples of other retro games for inspiration.
-The game used to open in full-screen, I changed this to help reduce eye strain for players as the game is very bright/colorful.
-Rewording description. Making sure to include some parts in-character for the game's thematic.
-Adding a small gameplay GIF to hopefully aid in understanding.
-Adding cover image to the "game start" window Itch.io provides.
