The characters of the multiplayer shooter Awesomenauts have always looked pretty fine, but as of today they can get totally fabulous! Because each of them now has access to a sweet alternative outfit.
Arrest unruly Awesomenauts as Officer Lonestar! Float like an alien, sting like a bee as Bumble Gnaw! Or get your groove on as Disco Voltar!
You can grab the skin for your favorite character for $2.49 (€2,49 / £1,74) in the Steam Store http://store.steampowered.com/dlc/204300/. But if you're like us you probably have multiple favorites, so we made these handy bundles:

Awesomeness Countdown! September 17th, 2012 - Ronimo
Patch 1.4 is released! September 6th, 2012 - Ronimo
Fire up your Steam engines, because it's time for a new Awesomenauts patch. The patch tweaks a lot of the items in the game, so it's time to start experimenting with new builds again!
And if you haven't seen it before, check out this video detailing some of the changes!
We'd also like to thank everyone for taking such great care of our new pet, Gnaw! We've never seen him so happy before, leaping around our office, Gnawing at our legs and drooling all over the place.
This patch also brings the start of a lot of Awesomeness! These dark figures are right around the corner and ready for action!
And if that wasn't enough to grab you by the nostrils, here's a snapshot of the Mac version which is going to feature Steamplay to let the Mac's duke it out with the PC's! Still work in progress but it's getting there!
Patch 1.3 out now! A new challenger has arrived! August 22nd, 2012 - Ronimo
Patch 1.3? Patch 1.3! Awesomenaut Gnaw is unleashed!
The Awesomenauts have recruited the most disgusting alien dog/thing in the universe and he is coming to spit you in the face!
Vomitting his way onto the battlefield this little menace will infest whole areas with slimy goo and flesh eating plants. So roll up the windows of your spacecraft and keep your arms and legs within the vehicle, because Gnaw is entering the arena today.
With over 500.000 games played and over 1.000.000.000 Solar collected in the first 3 weeks on Steam, the game is flying like a rocket! We intend to keep this rocket going with new characters and features that will be added regularly during the coming months.
Patch 1.2 drops today, new Naut incoming! August 10th, 2012 - Ronimo
After a very successful opening week the PC version of Awesomenauts is getting its first update. We've been blown away by the success of the PC version, and the fastly growing community can look forward to lots of updates in the future. Todays' update contains various minor fixes and balance tweaks. Check out the patchnotes here http://www.awesomenauts.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3216
An upcoming update will introduce a new character, called Gnaw! Gnaw is a nasty piece of work, a dirty doglike creature who likes to bite and spit poisonous ooze on his foes. Trained by his Cosmic biker pirate masters, he is a devious little monster. Anyone interested in setting loose a rabid, chitinous menace, should check out this latest Awesomenaut! Gnaw will soon be added to the Awesomenauts roster, for free!
Check out an introductory trailer below:
Also, Gnaw will be playable at GamesCom in Cologne next week. If you are at GC, look us up at the Valve booth in Hall 7.1, stand C030 to get a taste of this powerful new creature!
We've also been getting tons of requests for allowing Youtube monetization for Awesomenauts footage, and we'd hereby like to announce that we are ok with that. In fact we are super excited to see more footage of Awesomenauts! Bring it!

To celebrate the launch of Awesomenauts on PC, we've decided to throw in a couple of extra goodies and options when buying Awesomenauts. First off: swag. Team Fortress 2 swag, to be exact! When you pick up Awesomenauts on Steam this August, you will receive an exclusive Sheriff Lonestar hat (with authentic mustache!) for the Sniper, Yuri's jetpack for the Pyro, and a unique medal that can be used with all Team Fortress 2 characters - to show to the world that you roll with Awesomenauts!
We’ll be playing ourselves in the coming days and we’re looking forward to playing with you all online (If you ever see a player with a black-and-yelow monkey icon by his name in the scorescreen/leaderboards, that’s a dev!). Awesomenauts hooooo!
