Modding can be done at three levels -- basic, intermediate, and advanced. Basic modding involves playing with colour; for example, you can have dark mode for a game, akin to Instagram filters. Intermediate modding links to in-game events such as effects on screen during kill or win shots.
Lastly, with advanced modding, you can change 2D and 3D textures inside the game, including game elements like avatar's clothes. Powered by now.gg and now.gg's NFG platform, Creator Studio and Creator Hub enables the separation of game code, game events and game art, allowing users to share their modded experiences via a simple link -- creating a shareable and immersive mobile experience.
