I can barely read the text, maybe replace the black with a brighter shiny color like silver.

Is finding MUGEN to be more enjoyable to play when you're not wearing clothes an underrated opinion?

I can read it just fine. Perhaps a shade or two lighter would suffice, but bright and shiny would clash bad imo.

How bout now

It seems us of high artistic/creative caliber seem to think alike. This looks fucking ACE NoZ. Wow. Your projects continually improve in scope and quality. Gnarly.

Seeing how Ridge Racer V has, in my opinion, one of the slickest and impressive menu designs ever, perhaps you could create some elements inspired by V's overall design. Even though this game was a launch title for the PS2, it still holds up design wise and your Legacy design reminds me a lot of this. And LOLO 1010, the theme playing in the background, is one of my all time favorites. Yeah, this is when Namco rocked the PlayStation era. Check it out below:

One problem I have with WarZoNe is that while being very good looking, too many of your elements looked... stiff and barren. The fire effect was nice, and Ryu looked fantastic. But there wasn't much movement going on outside of your ambient animations, and that detracted from your overall experience. What I loved so much about BrokenMugen before converting it to 1.0 was all of those animations going on all over the place, giving you that sense of "wow, some shit is about to go down" as you navigated your screens.

If you look at the scrolling red and blue at the beginning of the video, maybe you could have a group of images that fade in and out, going in order, underneath a scrolling element. Example: Akuma will be on screen for 5 seconds, and fades/transitions into Iori who lasts for 5 seconds, fading into, say, Ryu, etc. This could be happening while your circle looking template scrolls to the right at a nice slow pace, adding a much needed dynamism that looks busy and includes movement. This will rectify the issue I mentioned above with WarZoNe.

I really LOVE the slow vertical scrolling text on the main menu, as well as Reiko's Silhouette moving within the center of the screen. Namco also incorporated a simple drop shadow on the font system adding a nice level of bold amidst your primary colors and greys, allowing for a very distinct design element. It's menu's, starting at 1:49, also have some nice font usage that is very bold and distinct. Also, and while this wouldn't be possible in Mugen, the Menu logos (starting 58) are simple yet elegant. Perhaps some inspiration for design here?? I fucking love those animations.

Just a little creative insight from my crazy mind I figured I'd share. Again, this is shaping up rather nicely. I say it already blows WarZoNe away. And that speaks massive volumes.

There should be a Saikoro plugin for Photoshop.

Voted for 1.0. I say you stick to your guns and release this as your last great screenapck for 1.0. Then come back and blows away, again, with something monstrous in 1.1.

Or be different and release this for both 1.0 and 1.1, each with their specific dynamics and differences.
