METALMERCS - STREAMER & CREATOR KIT
===================================

Free art for your MetalMercs videos, streams, thumbnails and channel pages.
Everything here was captured straight from the game's own animated title screen
(its shaders, palettes and mech silhouettes) or put together from those captures,
the game's logo and the game's UI font. No AI-generated art.

WHAT'S IN EACH FOLDER
---------------------
backgrounds/            Full title-screen key art without the title, 1920x1080,
                        one or more per colour palette (Sunset, Dusk, Neon, Toxic,
                        Ash, Violet, Midnight, Inferno, Winter, Golden, Overcast).
                        Name: keyart_<palette>_<hero mech>_s<seed>_1920x1080.png
  backgrounds/4k/       A few of the best ones at 3840x2160.

backgrounds_no_hero/    The same scenes without the big hero mech (sky, ruined
                        city, distant mechs): room for a facecam, gameplay window
                        or your own text. 1920x1080, one per palette.

stream_screens/         "Starting soon", "Be right back" and "Stream ending"
                        screens, 1920x1080, ready to use as OBS scenes.
  stream_screens/clean/ The same three backgrounds with no text, if you'd rather
                        add your own.

thumbnails/             1280x720 YouTube thumbnail bases: close, dramatic shots
                        of the hero mech with one side left clear for your title
                        (textleft / textright in the name says which side is free).
                        No text on them.
  thumbnails/examples/  Two examples with the MetalMercs logo placed, to show
                        one way to lay it out.

silhouettes/            The hero mechs on a transparent background, cropped tight,
                        about 2000 px tall: a rim-lit version (as on the title
                        screen) and a pure black version of each.

logos/                  The official MetalMercs logo on transparent: the full
                        1280x720 version, a tightly cropped version, and the
                        cropped version at 2x.

overlays/               Transparent 1920x1080 overlays in the game's UI style:
                        a webcam frame (bottom right, 480x270 camera window) and
                        a lower-third name bar (bottom left).
