Derp Steve
Overview & Design
Derp Steve keeps the iconic default Steve outfit, teal shirt, blue jeans, brown hair, but swaps the face for oversized googly eyes pointing in different directions and a permanently confused expression. The joke lives entirely in the head texture, so the familiar body makes the derpy face land even harder. It is a lighthearted meme skin meant to get a laugh in chat rather than look cool.
It suits players who want a funny, recognisable meme skin for casual or comedic play.
