[Scummvm-devel] Adding splashscreen to ScummVM

[Angus Lees]

Several of the ports already implement their own splash screens.
In my case (Android) I display it while I unpack the ScummVM native code,
which takes a second or two - and the splash screen has a progress bar to
show far through it is.  If the "real" ScummVM then proceeded to show its
*own* splash screen, that might look a little jarring for the user.

I'm all for making some standardised graphics, etc available that ports
could show on their splash screens - but I suspect even legitimate ports
would have a reason to want to disable a "standard" splash screen.

(Yes, I know Android isn't an official port atm - but I believe my point
carries across to others that are: eg iphone)
