Space Skins

We're sure you've been waiting to see these skins so frequently mentioned, so here's a sneak peak of a few Space Skins in the bundle:

  1. BundleAmerican AstronautThe first and easiest to obtain skin in the bundle, this is the one of the most commonly thought of astronaut helmets, as it is based on Niel Armstrong's helmet.
  2. Russian Cosmonaut - Tied in difficulty to obtain with the American Astronaut skin, the cosmonaut helmet is based on Alexei Leonov's suit, this space helmet has a fantastic green-brown base and silver visor is a remarkable skin.

  3. Chinese Taikonaut - This golden colored helmet bearing the Chinese flag is not based on any particular Taikonaut but is a fantastic skin regardless, and will be slightly more difficult to obtain than the previously mentioned skins.

  4. Canadian Astronaut - This white helmet with a white base and fantastic blue stripe that bears the greatest flag flown in all the world (The 100% Canadian team at Bana Simulator is definitely not biased in saying this) is based on the suit worn by David Saint-Jacques, and will be just as difficult to obtain as the Taikonaut suit.

  5. {Redacted} - This {Redacted} will {Redacted} so that you can {Redacted}, and will be {Redacted} difficult to obtain.

Other Information

We are accepting submissions for both competitions at the time of this being written, and will stop accepting submissions along with the release of the first major update in a few weeks. This update will be the first of a few steps we will be taking to get Bana Simulator's beta available to the general public. I can't reveal too much about that update, but I will say there will be several more hours of Story Content as well as a second full Bossfight, am I as excited as you?

We're so excited to see all the submissions for the Bana Simulator Space Race Competition!

The Bana Team reserves the right to modify or reject and custom weapons and skins designed by the competition winners.
