The title screen displays "TECMO SECRET OF THE STARS" in large outlined text at the top against a light blue sky. Below the title, a small yellow airship sprite floats above a green ground with trees rendered in the background. At the bottom, white text reads "LICENSED BY NINTENDO © TECMO, LTD. 1995". The overall visual style uses 16-bit SNES-era pixel art with a bright color palette.
