Retro VHS Template (Plug & Play System)

Stop Building Menus. Start Building Your Game.

Most game-dev dreams die in the settings menu. Aligning buttons, debugging volume sliders, and wrestling with resolution scaling isn’t why you started making games.

This template is your shortcut. Skip the "soul-crushing" UI work and drop your project into a high-end, professional foundation with a sick retro VHS aesthetic.

What’s Under the Hood?

• Production-Ready Options: A fully functional settings suite—Resolution, Fullscreen, VSync, and Volume—that saves and loads automatically.
• Dynamic Level Selection: Stop manual wiring. Add your level to a text list, and the menu builds itself.
• Asynchronous Loading: Pre-loads scenes in the background. No jank, no stutter—just seamless transitions that make you look like an optimization wizard.
• The "Procrastination" Credits: A fully interactive, draggable credits screen because your team (even if it's just you) deserves to look cool.
• Retro Aesthetics: Includes a premium VHS/CRT shader and pixel font—100% free for commercial use.

Integration in 60 Seconds

1. Register: Add your scene path to SceneHolder.gd.
2. Duplicate: Copy a button in select_scenes.tscn.
3. Name: Rename the button to match your scene.
4. Ship: Go back to the "fun stuff."

The Fine Print

• Commercial Use: Absolutely. Go make your masterpiece.
• Redistribution: Don't resell the template or its assets as your own.
• Credit: Not required, but always appreciated.

The foundation is done. Now go make the game.
