Shells
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| | Snake and Otacon - Solid Shell | The default shell. The characters are large and detailed, and come with a number of dressup items. |
 | Snake and Otacon - Retro Otacon | The original shell. Otacon uses small pixel art images from the OtaClock desktop application, while Snake is drawn in a smoother style with more detail. |
Trivia
- When asking Snake about his love life, there is a branching dialogue that will change based on Otacon's feelings towards the user. Whichever of the two dialogues Snake says to the user, the branch will no longer be available, and the user will be unable to unlock the other dialogue even when they ask Snake to repeat his previous answers.
- Sometimes, instead of saying dialogue, the two will simply change poses instead.
- Some dialogues will cause Otacon to move on his own, towards Snake. This includes attempting to pet him when your relationship is very low, and some random dialogue in December, January, and February.
