Thanks!
Any ideas on how to remove the unnecessary empty space between the logo and the “Learn To Play” button (red)?

Why remove? Why not to center the logo there? Since we can stretch the place.

Removing the empty space above the buttons would make it look better at low resolution screens. This is how it currently looks on 1280×720:

That would implicitly remove that space as well if there isn't enough space.
And vertical centering would look better as well for larger resolutions I estimate.

I guess there is no vertical align option for GUI objects, but one should be able to code it with 5 lines:

let size = Engine.GetGUIObjectByName(mainMenuButtons).size;
size.top = logo.size.bottom
size.bottom = projectInformation.size.top;
Engine.GetGUIObjectByName(mainMenuButtons).size = size;

+ something like that +/- refactoring + consistent with the rest of the code

or this pattern (has the advantage of not hardcoding references to neighbors):

top = 50%-halfHeight
bottom = 50% + halfHeight
`

where 2 * halfHeight = buttons * buttonHeight

On a side note 720 < 768 minimum resolution.

True, though 1280×720 is actually larger (and newer?) than 1024×768.
