Title Screens

Title screens are very important; they are the first thing the player sees and therefore
should be interesting.

I like the routines used in many old arcade games. This being a loop through the Title
screen to the hi-scores and maybe a demo of the game being played.

I use something like:

Do
Display Title Screen
Timer1=0
   	While (Timer1 < 30 seconds)
Here we would check for start keys, exit keys etc	
		Increase timer
Wend

	Display Hi-scores
	Timer1=0
	While (Timer1< 30 seconds)
		Check keys etc.
		Increase timer
	Wend
Loop

The above pseudo-code will display the title screen for 30 seconds then change to display
the hi-score table then repeat this until the player starts the game or exits.
Obviously you could add more things to display such as information screens, credits screens
and others. Adding these would just mean adding more while loops into the main loop.
