SCI title menus

Okay I've done my research. I've checked 32 different SCI 0 to 1.1 games and took note of what their title menus are like.

For this, I ignore the Sierra logo which may be un-skippable in some games, copy protection screens, and cutscenes that last just seconds before control is given like Sonny Bonds parking his car or Roger Wilco jumping out of his pod.

A. Just press a key to skip the title/intro (5)

No screenshots because there's no title menu to show for these.

Leisure Suit Larry 2 (SCI0)

Police Quest 2 (SCI0)

Space Quest 3 (SCI0) — you can enter commands and activate the menu at any time during the intro, so you can restore at any time.

Leisure Suit Larry 1 and 3 (SCI10, SCI0), after a fairly long age check.

Codename ICEMAN (SCI0) — there's some opening narration before control is given.

B. Is this your first time playing X? (4)

First thing the game does when the title appears is ask if you want to watch the intro (no) or skip it (yes). This is done with a regular old dialog window and DButtons.

King's Quest 4 (SCI0)

King's Quest 5 (SCI10)

The Colonel's Bequest (SCI0)

Conquests of the Longbow (SCI10) — a variation that lets you pick between the intro, restoring, or starting a new game.

C. Interruptible intro (5)

At any point during the introduction and title credits, you can press a key to skip ahead to the game or restore. This is done with a regular old dialog window and DButtons.

Space Quest 1 (SCI10)

Space Quest 4 (SCI10)

Castle of Dr. Brain (SCI10)

Police Quest 3 (SCI10)

EcoQuest 1 (SCI0)

D. Options running along the bottom of the screen (2)

King's Quest 1 (SCI0)

King's Quest 6 (SCI11)

The Dating Pool

E. The same, but they're DButtons in a dialog window (2)

Freddy Pharkas (SCI11)

Leisure Suit Larry 6 (SCI11)

Eric Oakford's SCI 1.1 template

F. Options going down the screen (4)

Quest for Glory 1 (SCI0, SCI11)

Quest for Glory 2 (SCI01)

The Dagger of Amon-Ra (SCI11)

EcoQuest 2 (SCI11)

G. The same, but again as DButtons in a window (6)

Conquests of Camelot (SCI0) — the window is on the bottom but the buttons run down.

Police Quest 1 (SCI11)

Quest for Glory 3 (SCI11) — Technically that's an icon bar but they have the look.

Island of Dr. Brain (SCI11)

Space Quest 5 (SCI11) — DColorButtons are a kind of DButton.

Pepper's Adventures in Time (SCI11)

Phil Fortier's SCI 1.1 template, because it's based on SQ5.

H. Something more unique and novel (3)

Mixed-Up Mother Goose (SCI0)

Mixed-Up Fairy Tales (SCI10?)

Leisure Suit Larry 5 — fast forward twice (SCI10)

... personally I'd go with Police Quest 1 style for a template game. I like interruptible intros but the template wouldn't have such a thing. Leave it as a tutorial perhaps. And that's why C is missing in the poll.

The latest in my little TARDIS painting series. Featuring two Romanas, watching space go by.

Ngl, I'm so proud of this one. I haven't had a lot of time to draw non-bobbles recently, but I feel like my skills have levelled up a bit!

I made some spotify playlists with very specific vibes to imagine scenarios to!!

You're lost in the middle of the woods trying to get out but at least your radio has signal...

You're in a spaceship... it's suddenly hit by meteors and now you're counting down the minutes

Your alien best friend has come to visit and you're starting to realize you have feelings for them

Logging into your old account when you remember online friends you lost connection with

You're in a post-apocalyptic world with only a small robot as your companion

You're all alone at your birthday party

On a road trip with a frog but he gets cranky from hunger halfway through

You're solving a mystery... and your handsome assistant is looking pretty suspicious

You're dreaming about being a mermaid

You're ready to fight god

they all kinda have a story so if you're interested in that it's best played from beginning to end

Ok so... i'm thinking about remaking also this 2 thumbnails. I made them really simple cause i wanted to fit with the more comical and vintage visual of the game (aaaaand i was in a hurry in that period when i had to making them AHAAHAH) but at the same time i feel i can try something else with them. Maybe it's cause i'm just curious of doing another version :D. For the first Portal gameplay, i still like keeping a more chip artstyle like that! WE'LL SEE (Yeah it's just cause i wanna make some draws about Portal and i'm feeling strange cause my videogame hunger goes to Portal 2, to Sonic games that i always wanted to get deep into them, Monster Hunter, see the new monster for the new game makes me crazy, and the willing of continue Ghost Trick) Of course also my art desire follow my game passion so. Anyway, what you all think about this two thumbnails? There are a lot of things i wanna correct and change. OBV I WANT ALSO CRITIQUE :3

OK I NOTICE IT NOW, I MADE THE FIRST GLADOS FACE LOOKS LIKE A COOKED EGG... the problem it's that i still like it in that way lol.

oh also, take a little Wheatley Vinyl that i made for the video about Drawing the thumbnail for Portal 2

Another drawing of my fan incarnation of The Doctor (right) with her companion Lavinia (left).

Their outfits were heavily inspired by two of the dresses in this post, the middle-left and bottom-right.

The colour choices for the backgrounds are my attempt at mimicking Moebius

[katierosefun]

god you know how much i love science fiction/fantasy purely for That Moment when the character rockets off to space for the first time or when they see the stars for the first time or when they see grass for the first time just something inherently beautiful and emotional about watching someone realize that the world is so vast and so much bigger and so much brighter and so much scarier and so much better or whatever that one doctor who quote said

I think it's be really funny if an old companion rejoined the TARDIS

the doctor keeps treating them like a new companion, because it's been 400 years, they've gotten a lot better at this whole, being the Doctor thing, so its just contantly

"oh no, my oldest enemies, the daleks, it isn't safe here, stay with me and be extra careful"

meanwhile the companion is not listening because they've heard this all before and already solved the situation

Tested out a bit of Stars Without Number the other day, so of course that means the chance to design a PC.

Her name is Avanti, she's a smuggler/thief and I feel it's a miracle she survived her first outing, since SWN holds no punches (a trap nearly took her out as it was). It's just her and her space-exploring buddy out to do some adventures.

(criminal background, adventurer expert-warrior class with alert, gunslinger and specialist-connect for foci)
