Introduction
ShootMania places a heavy emphasis on user creation. Players will be able to edit huge swathes of the game, from maps, objects and game modes, to textures and skins. They'll also be able to upload and share custom videos and screenshots from the game thanks to the ManiaPlanet tool.
ShootMania will also feature its own form of currency, called Planets, which users can spend on various creation tools.
Maps & Objects
ShootMania Storm will include map and script editors that will allow users to create and share their own customized games.
This extends to the ability to build complex landscapes, with the use of up to 60 different types of blocks and objects. User-created 3D objects can also be imported into the game.
Players will also be able to create their own unique game modes, expanding on the 8 official ones included with the games.
Videos & Screenshots
The game will also support Machinima editing and sharing tools. You'll be able to record and publish gameplay sessions thanks to a 'powerful replay editor'.
ManiaPlanet will also allow players to share their own creations with ShootMania's online community.
Textures & Skins
Finally players can personalize their characters and create custom map textures. According to the developers: "with a little file tweaking 2D skinning and texturing of the in-game characters and blocks is simple".
