I was wondering what is the best way to implement a countdown screen before showing the user the game view. For a more detailed example, I want the user to see a screen that displays 3...2...1...GO ! and than the game will appear.
Currently in my application I am using a navigation controller as my main menu where you can select multiple games to choose from. When a user selects one of the game buttons this is where I want the countdown screen to appear before my game interfaces does.
Solutions that I have thought about: 1) should I implement a new view controller that i push on the navigation controller to perform the count down ( seems like a waste) 2) is there a way to blank everything on a view and show a countdown first?
Thanks in advance for your help and cooperation !
