spinning gaben? (?)

[TheJJ]

Although i'd find that pretty funny, i think we should go for some custom-drawn spinner 😄

[franciscod]

should we do this outside the engine loop? or let the engine have a "loading" flag and run (and don't lock on drawing so gamemain can keep loading stuff)?

[franciscod]

I'm thinking about registering a (new) "loading" DrawHandler before the big asset load, and after it register the current GameMain's one...

Perhaps one of the many solid ones found at http://www.reddit.com/r/loadingicon/ ?

spinning gaben is an incredibly awesome idea. you could make him grow to represent the progress.

#137 implemented an on-screen "loading gamedata" hint.

[franciscod]

Is the current hint sufficient? Or we'd like a spinner?

[TheJJ]

i wouldn't say no to a spinner 😉
if we took one from reddit, beware the licensing...
