Nice title screen, but I'd beg to differ about it being professional :D

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to break your balls or anything.

To me a professional title screen would be one that like the title and buttons seems to be all included in the background and is relevant to what your game is about.
Keep in mind that a title screen is the first thing a user will see of your game that has any form of interaction! For example, if your game is in the prehistoric theme, maybe you could make a rock with engraved text for your title and push-button rocks for the menu!

A game is all about making decision. Your job is to make making those decisions fun! And this starts at the title screen :D

Gimp XD It all started with a black and white gradient, and a few effects.
