Another short animation video, feature some test concepts that we're playing around with for the player and NPC animation rig:

Animation test concepts

[Artillerie]

Looking good, particularly like the monsters.

[Super Firebug]

I hope that the speedster will finally get his costume, so that he can stop wearing the body paint. (It's either that, or he needs underwear to stop his costume from falling into his crack. Not a pretty sight, from the back.)

And something about the Slimes makes me want to reach for a flamethrower and fry the sewers. If that's the effect you're going for, well done.

I'm looking forward to a beta-test opportunity.

The medium sized monster with the bubble looking thing reminds me a bit of shivans. Some crippling lowbie -defense wouldn't surprise me from those.

[Todogut]

Looks exciting, GG. Thanks for sharing, and keep up the great work.   :)

[Remaugen]

Yay!

[Styrj]

GG, you guys are definitely on the right track.  Can't wait to get to Alpha/Beta testing.

[EmmaStyles]

Keep up the great work.  :)

Nice models, although Zandra needs to lay off the cheeseburgers a bit. ;)

[Felderburg]

Nice models, although Zandra needs to lay off the cheeseburgers a bit. ;)

Looks to me more like she's leaning back in a weird way that pushes her stomach out. Like someone trying too hard with the "shoulders back, chest out" superhero type pose.
