Death Screen

The Death Screen is a feature in nico's nextbots. It was released in beta testing, then got revamped in the Overhaul Update.
== Overview==
The death screen features two black bars—one at the top and one at the bottom. In the top left corner, an image of the nextbot responsible for your death. The screen also displays a prominent white message at the top and a smaller red message at the bottom. The smaller red message consistently concludes with by (nextbot that killed you). 
In the center, above the bottom bar, three options are displayed: "shop (get gear to help you)" provides access to the in-game shop; "respawn (spacebar key)" will respawn you in the map you initially selected; and "save score (R50) (respawn with your ___ points)" allows you to respawn while retaining the points from your previous life.
Before the overhaul update, while the game was still in beta, the death screen featured only a respawn button labeled "Click to respawn," which appeared at the bottom of the screen.

==Trivia==
*If you die in any way other than being killed by a nextbot, the bottom death message will end with "yourself". This includes deaths from breaking too many windows, resetting, drinking excessive amounts of Bloxy Colas or Witches Brew, or being overwhelmed by too many snowballs.
*The only unique top death message is "lower case death message haha," which is presented in lowercase, whereas all other top death messages are capitalized.
*The death screen is similar to the one used in the game Left 4 Dead.
*The only way for the game to indicate that you died due to a player is if the player uses the kill command from the admin panel.
*The renewed death screen, which was released in the overhaul update, was first seen in a poll conducted by 1nicopatty in the nico's stu Discord. The poll asked members whether death messages should be displayed in the corner or the center. Despite the majority voting for the center, the death messages currently appear in the corner. 
*In the new Outbreak update, the death screen features a shop button to assist players who are struggling to survive against the nextbots.
*The top death messages "NOT BIG SURPRISE", "YOU ARE DEAD" are references to the Team Fortress 2 SFM animation "The Heavy is Dead."
