Daily reminder to play the game with us on Fightcade if you're curious. We could use some more dedicated players, because this game is mad fun and has good depth to sink your teeth into.

This feature needs to be in every fighting game. Player freedom is based.

[@carlosaugusto9821]

The fg makers act like the games only need to have one of these: either costume customization, or a deeper customization, or different costumes. No other idea wander over their heads.

[@edgelord121]

Tekken always has it. Plus customisation

[@rafaeltrindadelau]

Melty Blood Type Lumina has it, and Under Night 2 will release with it as well (it's probably going to work the same way as Type Lumina, where the colors for each part of the character are from all the palettes the character actually has).

KoF XI had a notable Color Edit. In addition to characters, you could edit the colors of (most) their projectiles, auras, flames, etc. For example, you can give Iori orange flames for each of his moves. Including his SDMs and LDM.

[@BoringLoginName]

Absolutely loved the Neo Geo Pocket SvC colors. Kinda want to see renditions of the entire roster now. I'm gonna take a crack at figuring the extra colors. Let's see: 1 - Rasetsumaru from Samsho (?) 2 - Hyo Amano from Last Blade/LB2 3 - This one's tough... Agent Shadow? 4 - Hehehe... Gold Rugal. Cheeky. 5 - No clue... Shadow Dio? 6 - I give up. I feel like I should know this one, but nothing came to mind. 7 - Either Kappa or maybe Blanka Honda, or "Blonda" if I can give it a canon name. Which, considering my multiple loss streaks in SF6, this is one very terrifying fusion.

[@velostation6309]

The Cammy one to me looks like it could be based on Pandora Mode from SF X Tekken. Black skin, purple clothing, white highlights (in this case, the gloves).

[@brentsanderson6566]

ill never forget when this came out on my Xbox, I made Morrigan in all flesh tones. my kid sister caught me doing it and told my parents.

[@Despots_Blitz86]

Man, I REALLY wish we could get something like this in a modern fighting game but knowing how stingy tournament rules can be they'd probably ban it *entirely* _just_ because there's ONE stage where if you're a _specific_ color you're *kinda* hard to see.

[@calcutlass]

Derp.

[@brokenhalo22]

It's not often that a background/color issue is bad enough to get banned, but you know that if something like this were to be allowed in tournaments or even online, you'd have people running solid 1-color characters just to make it harder to see what they're doing. It would get annoying fast.

[@Shiratto]

​@brokenhalo22 I mean Tekken had this as a mostly fixed issue by having presets for tournament play. Outside of tourneys go nuts

[@carlosaugusto9821]

Tournament rules are not a possible obstacle, no matter how much the fg makers are conscious of esports in the making of their games. Because its just a matter of sticking to default assets. The devs just dont want to bother adding things like this.

[@thisWinglessAngel]

As if CvS2 wasn't already goated, this feature made me play the game more even when i wasn't in the lab. Also, loving the handheld color schemes! Nice idea. Something like the Terry or Cammy colors shown here could be good ideas to make Morrigan possibly look better since her sprite sticks out the most.
