This has nothing to do with the menu but with the title screen but didn't see any point in making a new thread so.....
I am making a new title scene ontop of the default one and require some help.
I made it so when you click on new game instead of going into to the game, you go into a "new" title screen. This new one so far gives you the option to pick a difficulty or to go back to the title screen.
"Easy, Normal, Hard, Go Back"
Atm they show vertical, I want to show the first 3 horizontal and the fourth option underneath them unless it's too much work. (I'm thinking on adding a picture for each mode to explain what is different)
Once that is done, a help window shouldn't be too much hard to do.
How would I go in achieving this?

The coding was taken from scene_title and edited to show those new options and it works. I tried removing redundant lines of codes but don't know if removing anything else would be bad.
[Edit]
This seems to work for horizontal commands but the text on cursor is not working as intended.

The first command is aligned "well" while the rest are all to the right like this:
