I've wanted to adapt Skywatcher's 16:9 theme for Vimana to 4:3 for a long time, so I did... and I ended up more or less remaking the thing. Haha. The things we do for this great hobby. Oh, and the matching wheel is in the theme zip. 😁
I wanted to give the forgotten child in the Pac-Man series some long-overdue love. The game video fades into the chalkboard's space. The matching wheel image is in the theme zip. Thanks to Eraser_arcade for the classroom idea!
I thought I'd make a good theme for this fun shoot-em-up in the style of the game's flyer. The matching wheel is in the theme zip. Enjoy!
Another theme mash-up! srfran's theme has a nice layout, while CHoRNy's theme has a great logo and background. Put them together, smooth out the characters, and a solid theme is born. I also included a clean wheel from CHoRNy's theme logo.
"I know!" I know! Let's make a Mortal Kombat wrestling game! It'll be a huge hit!" - a Taito dev, probably. 🤣
A cleaner version of the wheel is in the theme zip.
Cross another theme off the missing list! It's a real shame this game never made it past the prototype stage, because mashing up pinball with Arkanoid elements is kinda genius.
Like so many other games on the missing list lately, I was compelled to design this one from scratch. The in-game logo has a neat look, but proved to be virtually impossible to upscale and still look good. So, I made a whole new one. I hope you like it! As usual, the assets I used and the new wheel are included.
(Side note: After the roller coaster of a month I've had, it's been nice to occupy my brain with fun themes. A few weeks ago, my workplace burnt to the ground, and on Monday, we were sold to another company. It's been a challenge, navigating the chaos lately. I'm just thankful I still have a job. Whew.)
Another all-time classic that's been long overdue for a proper theme with a proper English-language logo. The matching wheel is in the theme zip. Thanks to the anonymous theme creator for the character mob!
I thought the time was well past for a proper theme for this Capcom multiplayer classic. Thanks to Oscarino1 for the very cool animated mercenary!
I thought I'd adapt jesfknkrys' 16:9 aspect theme for Tough Turf to 4:3. I did some tidying up and added some animation as well.
I'm a huge racing game fan. Yes, even super-ugly GREEEEEN ones like Monte Carlo. 🤢 Haha. The cleaned-up wheel is in the theme zip. Enjoy? lol
As far as I can tell, the only existing theme for this great game is hoscarconh's 16:9 aspect one. So, I created a 4:3 theme to fill the gap. I remade the game's USA-region logo, so I've included a huge version of that, and I've also included a matching wheel image in the theme zip.
Even prototype Arkanoid clones are worthy of inclusion in your setup, right? Ball-and-paddle games are so fun. Omega has a nicely done (probably homemade) flyer, so I used that for this theme. I've included the alternate wheel in the theme zip as well.
I have a much older anonymously-created theme in my collection for this game that uses the flyer's goofy artwork. I didn't care much for it, so I use the game's cool marquee artwork and made a whole new theme. I've included the proper wheel image in the theme zip, as usual. Enjoy!
This amazing game has been screaming for a proper theme for an absolute age. (Since I added it to the Theme Request List in 2012, in fact!) 😬
So, here's a proper theme for it. Hope you like it! I've included a proper horizontal-format wheel and large-format logo in the theme zip as well.
I really dig Mykillvee's Wing War theme, but I thought it could use some additional animation and refinement to really make it shine. So, I added P-38 and P-51 fighter planes flying around the screen and tweaked the video frame to match the game logo. I've included a matching game wheel in the theme zip too.
Fun Robin Hood-themed Snow Bros. clone that doesn't appear to have any marketing materials at all, so I made a theme from scratch in the spirit of the game. I've included a zip with the assets I used, and the new wheel is in the theme zip as well. Game on! 🍎
The existing theme for Tank Busters features an assortment of aspect ratio crimes (which drive me nuts), so I created a new one. 😁 The alternate wheel is in the theme zip too.
I thought this game could use a theme a little truer to its flyer artwork and with a little more animation. Thanks to Mykillvee for saving me the work of cutting out the player's character again.
This theme sprang to life because the game's logo is 💩. Haha. I was going to replace it with the recreated logo that's on the web, but decided that one isn't much better. One thing led to another, and I ended up making a whole new theme from scratch, because I'm just picky like that. As usual, I've included the assets, and the new wheel is in the theme zip. Enjoy!
P.S. She's got flippers... get it? 🤣
The textured background of this game's flyer scrolls by and the player's ship hovers over the full-screen video like it's flying. I love how flexible and versatile the various animation settings are in HyperSpin. You can do nearly anything with a little creativity.
Theme by unknown author + Johnfreitassousa44197812's theme = this mashup! I love the background in the former theme and the foreground in the latter, so I thought I'd merge them and animate the end result. Thanks, guys!
I love CHoRNy's theme concept for this, but that 32X cockpit had to go. I replaced it with the proper arcade cockpit and animated it and the TIE fighters, and gave the video a border to make it fit in a little better. I've included a wheel image to match the logo in the theme, because it annoys me to no end when my wheels don't match their themes.
I liked the look of RenegadeAngel's theme for Time Scanner, but I saw an opportunity to animate it in a fun way. So I did! The flippers flip, and the pinball bounces around. I also reworked the logo to be horizontal and revised the look of the background and video as well. The horizontal wheel is in the theme zip too.
As far as I know, no 4:3 theme exists for this game, only 16:9. So, I made one. 😁 And it ended up taking an absolute age to complete, thanks to the only quality artwork available being the game's marquee. Carefully cutting out complex objects is very time-consuming. Heh.
A better-quality wheel is in the theme zip as well. Enjoy!
I thought I'd make a theme for this excellent shmup that features the North American cabinet's artwork. The matching wheel image is in the theme zip.
