How to make a splash screen?

[Abheek_Santra]

I want to make an splash screen for 5 sec, after 5sec splash screen will be over and then go to home screen. As I am new in defold and making a game.

Any easy tool to implement the concept of “screens” in Defold is to use Monarch. It does most of the heavy lifting you need. Download the full zip and open the project so that you can best understand how it works.

For advancing to the next screen you can put in init timer.delay(5, false, function() monarch.show(…) end) though I normally also add an on_input to immediately advance for good user experience.

Yep, definitely recommend Monarch, although I am biased A bare bones example of loading a splash screen while loading something else can be seen here:

Throwing my support in for Monarch. Splash screen would be quick and easy.
