About This File
A few years back I built my own arcade cabinet and called it Wasted Youth, a nod to all the hours (and coins) I spent in arcades growing up. This theme was made for that cabinet, so it has the same colours.
The colours are neon green and cyan on a dark background. Everything is styled to match: the platform and game screens, Discover, game details, the system and options menus, the popups, four different screensavers, plus matching loading, game-over and pause screens and a sound pack.
I made it for my own cab, but it works just as well on any Big Box setup. I hope you enjoy it.

What's New in Version 1.2 See changelog
Released
- Jump to letter: now full screen - the view dims and blurs behind it and the letter sits in the centre at full size, with "JUMP TO" above and bigger arrows either side.
- New letter pack: A-Z re-made from the original source files and some totally re-made, the Search, List, Favourites and 0-9 images rebuilt to match.
- Platforms screen: games with no box art now show the same size as covers with art (they were scaled up and looked taller), and now get a reflection like the others.
- Discover: the game's Platform logo (or its name if there's no logo) now shows top-left on the feature card. The card builds in order: platform logo, then the game's clearlogo, then the details.
- Screensavers: the Platform name is now shown on Attract, Cinema and Showcase.
