Happy Thanksgiving and a poll for Now & Then
Added 2022-11-24 20:18:41 +0000 UTC
Happy Thanksgiving wishes to you all, even if you aren't American, because you all have been great in your support and fandom and it's greatly appreciated!
With that said, I promised a poll for the design of the main menu splash for the upcoming release of Now & Then's Director's Cut. Originally, I wanted to call it Now & Then FINAL, like Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, or Persona 4 Golden/Persona 5 Royal, to represent that this version has new and extended content not found in the original title. But, I've gotten feedback from some people who felt the FINAL was unnecessary.
So, I give you a number of various choices/mock-ups to choose from.
Option 1: The original concept, with Final color coded based on which version is unlocked.

Option 2: Just the name, subtitle and Director's Cut tag left adjusted as suggested by a patron.

Option 3: FINAL dropped as a faint outline into the background.

Option 4: FINAL dropped as a faint outline in gray with Director's Cut tag in color.

Option 5: Director's Cut tag given prominence and stacked flushed-left next to the N&T logo.

Have a great holiday weekend and thanks for your support!

True! Why should Now & Then be limited? Whatever it is called, it will be worth to play again.

2022-11-24 22:40:46 +0000 UTCEvery design except for #5 kind of buries "Director's Cut" which makes it seem like it is subordinate to "A Tale of the End". Positioning it to the right and making it larger gives it more prominence than the other designs and makes it "pop". I say this coming from 30+ years working with type and graphic design, including having received multiple awards for graphic design, just for context. It's an informed decision from years worth of having to make these kinds of decisions.

2022-11-24 20:29:47 +0000 UTCI really like #2 (voted for it) and #5. I chose #2 (over #5) because others have also liked it more. I really hope the ones with the work FINAL don't win....because you never know........ EDIT: changed for to #5, as it was ahead of #2.
