Hi everyone!
The past couple of weeks were jam-packed with multiple online game shows taking place, filling in for the sadly canceled Gamescom 2020. Now that most of the shows are over we are back to creating the game in full force. That also means taking player requests, and one of the most requested features was customization. That's why we are happy to say that mech customization is now a thing!
Some of our ideas change more than just the colors. It's possible to add some geometric details as well.
You will be able to choose one of several skins for our good old Mech. They will be selectable from the inventory screen and you will be able to switch between them at your leisure. We made a couple of test paint jobs for Mr. Riggs to test this feature during our streams (Tuesdays and Thursdays, 3PM CEST, www.twitch.tv/exorstudios) and the reception has been great. Let’s take a quick look at the skins that are currently available. The collection will grow over time, obviously!
Isn't this the sweetest thing ever?!
Our plan is to have lots of variety when it comes to skins, ranging from old, beaten up mechs to cute, pink paint jobs with unicorn decals. Our current favorite is Mr. Piggs - a pink skin with a pig snout on the front - and it came as a community suggestion, too!
Mr. Piggs - bonus speed while walking in mud. (not really)
Some skins have already been memed into existence.
Currently, the ‘change skin’ button works as a simple toggle that cycles through the available skins. We are aware that when the number of available options increases, due to our own creations or skins added by fans, it will not be the ideal solution. The skin selection menu will change by the time the game launches.
Cool new paint job...
...same old problem-solving skills.
What kind of skins would you like to see in the game? Send inspirations our way on our Discord - https://www.discord.gg/exorstudios. We can’t promise we will be able to fulfill all of your requests, but we can promise to do our best, as always!
