      Help us redesign the menus

      We created our main menu for a beta release of our game but didn't keep it up to date and well designed. Let's update the design to match the character of a city simulation game.

      • Tip:

        Many projects have good small tasks that can teach newcomers how the project works. Now's your chance to share one of them!

        Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).

      • Example:

        Someone could improve the photo upload dialog box so that it lets you resize the photo before sending it to the web.
