♦ Download Instructions ♦
It is recommended to download the KDE Plasma Look and Feel Theme (opaque or transparent) with the KDE Add-On Installer: System Settings → Look and Feel → Get New Look and Feel Themes....
It will further attempt to download the following dependencies:
- KDE Plasma Theme,
- KDE Plasma Color Scheme,
- GTK Theme,
- Konsole Color Scheme,
- Wallpaper.
♦ KDE Plasma Look and Feel Theme ♦
Setting the KDE Plasma Look and Feel Theme in System Settings → Look and Feel will attempt to set: the KDE Plasma Theme and the KDE Plasma Color Scheme. Should you choose to select "Use desktop layout from theme" it will attempt to create a top panel, an auto hiding bottom panel (dock), and to set the wallpaper.
Warning: Selecting "Use desktop layout from theme" resets the KDE Plasma panels and widgets! Please backup the these settings (by default in ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc) if you intend to use this.

On EndeavourOS: Installation of /tmp/fWlAmn-klorax.retrofuturism-transparent_v1.0.0.tar.xz failed: Could not install dependency: 'kns://cgcgtk3.knsrc/api.kde-look.org/1329565'
Thanks for the report and sorry for the inconvenience! I am aware of the issue, just haven't gotten around to it, my intention is to update all my themes. I wrote about this issue a bit here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/76615#issuecomment-716040829
Ah that's cool :) I'm a fan of the retro video game aesthetic. Looking forward to trying yours out after the fix.
10 Great theme, I love it! I'm happy just by looking at my screen now :D One thing I'd like to suggest: Outlining windows boarders. Currently it's hard telling two overlapping windows apart.
Awesome, thanks! Before Plasma 5.17 this could be set with the "Active/Inactive Titlebar" color under "System Settings > Colors". In 5.17 and onwards one has to first enable the borders under "System Settings > Application Style", i.e., this is not really part of the themes.
love the retro themes , please keep working on it
Glad you like it, thank you very much!
