Earlier on in my project, I didn’t think of adding any characters because I was not confident about getting both environment work and character animation finished within the limited time I had. Adding Metahumans turned out to be a rewarding learning curve as I was not familiar with the animation workflow in Unreal Engine.

This allows the renderer to not render triangles that are not facing the camera. While this may seem counterproductive, the reality is that (unlike cameras and meshes) most game engines have different way of rendering light attenuation equations and parameters. Animation support.

What’s more, it’s easy to imitate movement by creating a simple animation, as we did in the booster’s model. We tried to solve this issue with Unity’s Line Renderer, but that tool doesn’t allow to do it properly. Creating animations for animals wasn’t an easy part. That allows us to reduce the size of the game.
