Grunt Suit Creation

 A "Grunt" suit can only be created if all of its parts are collected. To collect parts, the player must complete missions (the parts are acquired in game but will be lost if the player losses the level). Once the player acquires the parts necessary, the player must enter the "Mobile Suit Lab" under "Mission Mode". Here the player can select what parts the player wants to combine into a suit. There are 5 different parts the player must acquire in order to complete the suit. Body, Left Arm, Right Arm, Left Leg, Right Leg. Each part has a level and extra stats. There are 4 levels of parts but the stats associated to them are created at random.
 

Gallery

There is a gallery section in the game that showcases All the characters that are in the game, including a bio. There is also a mobile suit and ship viewer. If the player has fought alongside or against anyone, then they will appear in this mode to be viewed. In the gallery section the player can also cycle through all of the music on the disk.
