Turning the Game into an App
At heart or perhaps by vocation I'm a game programmer and my initial chosen style was very game oriented (also the default Unreal background is black). A while ago I decided I needed to make the transition to defaulting to a more app oriented visual style, simply by swapping light text on dark backgrounds to dark text on a pale background.
It took me a day to do, many of the UI components had custom color settings and I needed to find a way to get the UI to drive a backdrop to levels (where appropriate - this will probably need specialization per screen later on). But after a few hours of do I need to do this really the new look starting coming through and was obviously the right choice.
