ShapeShifter Arena Blends and Camera Settings
ShapeShifter’s Arena Blends let you change how the arena is textured, blended, filtered, and viewed while the game is running. These controls cover arena textures, blend strength, filters, and camera behavior, giving you a direct way to tune the look and movement of the playfield. The arena controls are hidden during normal play—accessible with a simple mouse movement or the press of ‘Ctrl A’—and let you change the arena’s appearance and viewing behavior without leaving the game.
