Anybody got any advice for setting up the splash screen for Unity?

I'm using the free version so I can't do it through that, I have actually got a splash screen in but in the web player at least it's really blurry.

I think I'm done except for text cues and making things look nicer, oh and sound.

Animations are going to stay as they are, I truly do not understand the Unity animation system :/

You can make a scene (the first load scene) the splash screen. This is how we are doing it and then setup a transition after x seconds or when the user clicks.

For splash screen, I'm doing the following (I'm using Unity 5, i don't know if this is applicable in other versions):

I have a canvas (needed for the UI stuff), and some Images (Component --> UI --> Image).

The canvas scaler is set to "Scale with screen size", reference resolution I've set as 1280x720 (I don't allow window resizing, not sure if it'll work if you do), and Screen Match mode is set to "Expand".

1 image is the splash screen.

1 image is just pure black color.

Both images are set to scale to window.

I then use a script to fade the image alpha to make the fade to/from black things look nice.

Hope that helps :)

Heres the link to the game. I am finished with the game for the game jam. Sorry if it sucks, but I also started high school this week .

Day 6

Journal entry: http://gamedevis.cool/en/the-week-of-awesome-iii/the-week-of-awesome-iii-death-is-useful-day-6/

I was thinking that the game should be ready on day 6, but not yet, I managed to implement: the background music, sound effects, the score system, death counter and some part of the final boss battle. I had a little fun and I put also my voice in the game:

The build is a littler large ~60Mb because of the wave sound bank, I need to find a solution to shrink it ...

The game starts correctly, I have only a little problem with the cursor: I have 2 monitors, when I move the mouse the cursor moves to the other screen and when I click the game window loses focus, also if is in full screen mode, do you think is possible maybe to lock the cursor inside the game window ?
