Shatter Gui
by Srula
Shatter Gui replaces the vanilla menu screens on Fabric with a restyled interface that uses color themes, animated backgrounds and visual effects.
What it does
Shatter Gui changes the look of the main menu and the screens reached from it. The standard dirt or panorama background gives way to animated color gradients with an ambient particle system, and the background carries across different menu screens instead of resetting on each one. Buttons and sliders are restyled with glowing borders that grow slightly and animate when the pointer rests on them.
Each section of the main menu, such as Singleplayer, Multiplayer and Options, is assigned its own color theme, so the screens behind those buttons can be told apart at a glance. Clicking an element produces visual sparks that match the color scheme of the menu currently open. The mod runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API, which must be installed alongside it. Players add it to their own game, and a server needs no copy. Builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.11 across 12 release versions, and the latest Fabric file, 1.0.0, targets 1.21.11.
