Promotion logo for the engine

Open SimonMaracine opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

Hey! Maybe it would be nice for the Hazel engine to have a Made with Hazel Engine or Hazel Powered logo, or something like that, for people to optionally include it in their games as a promotion for the engine. That is only if these assets (the main Hazel logo, this "promotion logo" and probably other things) will be included alongside the binaries in the distribution.

Also, different resolutions for the same logo wouldn't be bad, because if one would make, for example, a small resolution, 2D, pixelated game, he/she wouldn't need a large 2000x2000 logo.

Sounds like a nice idea to me, however I think that would be something for the future as the engine in its current state is not ready to have games developed with it just yet.

I am pro/con about this, we got the assets loader in already, so we can load basic images. That said, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make the API to set the icon on the window. This would result in the icon in the top corner of the window itself, and how it shows on the taskbar. Those could introduce some lower res images, also with only the H, without the Hazel underneath.

So yes, it would already be possible to have some sort of lower res images, but indeed, it is quite early, especialy for having promotion logo's, that will come with time, probably when we'll have the loading cycle of some sorts, providing a default loading screen.

I think you should have an option for disabling that for free. Let people make their choice and not have to buy a "Pro" version to remove that.

I agree. But I said "to optionally include it in their games".
