What I mean by this is like:


+
+
| Welcome to Marble Blast! |
| What would you like your name to be? |
| [ADVANCE TEXT - A button or ENTER] [ V ] |
+
+

Yeah, something like that. You get the point.

A box like this would load up when you start the game for the first time
It'd ask you for a name to use for the high score table as well as some
other things.

Would this be possible to do in Marble Blast's engine?

You'd have to code it in yourself with a GuiMLTextCtrl and some bitmaps, but it should be possible. Just hook addHelpLine in client/scripts/chatHud.cs

This signature is real code
Code:
function clientcmd12dothepq() { commandToClient(LocalClientConnection, '34onthedancefloor'); }
