Coinop Modals
=============

15 arcade modal dialogs and system notices for dark interfaces — plum black
with coin gold accents. SVG plus transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x.

Coinop Modals is a set of 15 modal dialogs and system notices drawn in the
arcade style, where the colour is the body rather than the border — saturated
slabs with pointed ends. It contains three modal dialogs at rising severity,
three system plates and three system banners, a three-button footer row, a
close button, a layered backdrop scrim and a plain, a focused and an error
input field.

A modal is not a panel: it stops the game, waits for an answer, and sometimes
the answer cannot be undone. The usual way to say that is a red border, which
collides with the health colour already on screen and disappears the moment a
developer retints the kit to their own palette.

Each slab is filled with a two-stop gradient running along its long axis, and
the marks are drawn dark on top of the colour rather than bright on top of
black. The pointed ends are part of the silhouette, so they survive being
scaled instead of being an outline effect.

Inside that style this is the Coinop reading of it: a dark interface on a plum
black palette with coin gold accents, built around a single bordered frame,
chamfered buttons at 200x56, hollow-cored bars divided into 5 segments, and
two-tone icons on a 32px grid. Those measurements are why two families can
share an art style without being interchangeable: the style decides how an
edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Severity is carried by the thickness of the strip along the top edge rather
than by its hue, three pixels for a notice, six for a warning and ten for
something destructive, so it survives any tint and any greyscale screenshot.
The button positions are fixed and deliberate: cancel sits left and raised,
the committing action sits right and recessed. That ordering becomes muscle
memory across a game, and a kit that varies it is how a player deletes a save
by reflex. The scrim is four stacked steps rather than one even wash, because
a single black sheet over the whole screen kills the art it is dimming.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x,
so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change
a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Coinop family,
which means this kit and the Coinop panel kit line up without either being
resized. A good fit for racing, arcade and score-driven interfaces.

HOW TO USE

  - Keep cancel on the left and the committing action on the right in every
    dialog, including the ones you build yourself from the footer row.
  - Pick the modal by the weight of its top strip rather than retinting one
    sprite. The thickness is the signal.
  - Lay the scrim behind the modal at the size of your screen and tile it: it
    is drawn as discrete steps so it scales without a blur artefact.
  - Use the error input field rather than a red border. It doubles the
    underline, which reads in greyscale and next to a health bar.
