Contest Prize Distribution + New Features & Changes - Part 2
MercuryStudio
Hello, Break Artists!
We're excited to share some news on the design contest wallpaper prizes, along with new info on the upcoming game update.
Wallpapers Now Available
Once again, congratulations to peminin (Diorama Category) and patchitoiwarete (Mech Category) on your Grand Prize wins!
As a special gift from MercuryStudio, we've crafted desktop wallpapers using mech data kindly contributed by both artists.
We have received permission from both winners to make these wallpapers available to the public, so we're pleased to offer them here for everyone! While we ask that you refrain from redistributing them, feel free to use them however you like. (For example, as a background for your streams.)
peminin's Wallpaper: 3840×2160 / 3449×1440 patchitoiwarete's Wallpaper: 3840×2160 / 3449×1440
New Info on Version 1.1.0
Thank you for your patience! Last time, we touched on the in-match UI, but we've also made a number of smaller changes to the machine design screen. One of the bigger improvements is to the machine info display panel.
Overall machine parameters now feature help text linked to each individual stat, making them much easier to understand.
Next, on the thruster screen, we've improved the icons and adjusted the thrust display to reflect the actual in-game speed.
Finally, let's look at emitters (weapons).
These have seen some particularly notable changes: basic info is now shown in a simplified format, while the detailed view lets you check things like your control bindings (this info wasn't displayed before.)
Another improvement is that the actual parts now light up when focused on.
*Please note these are images from a work-in-progress build, so some text appears in Japanese.*
