What are your thoughts on this New Enemy Design? Is it as BadAss as I think??🙂
Love the combination of cool shading effects with the low poly fur. It's like this neat mish mash of old and new. Sorta like an old school pixel art vibe but in 3D without looking super blocky like most low poly games. It's great!
it looks really good!
Yes, it is as bad ass as you think, very well done 👏
Waiting for rat 4.0

yes-yes rat-kin!
"I'm just an animator" is what I love about game development. I was just a programmer who liked games, and now I'm so much more--being "just an animator" was enough to start, it gave you a comfortable spot you could be proficient in, an angle you understood the process from, and the rest, so long as you're willing, can be learned along the way! It's so fulfilling to so my skills improving.
Yes, that is true. I mean, we all start at zero. And most things can be learned if you want it enough, and if you are willing to spend the time. It’s as simple as that.
With my animation background I knew, I SHOULD be able to make a simple game with great animations.
"the rat enemy" i love it. he's the best
He sure is 🙂❤️
"That doesn't matter if the models are bad. Camera is far away." I actually like how they look up close. Especially rats. The light does so much in these renders. I would love to see you throw these exact models in some sort of one-room fight demo and just play a little bit with lights cuz I believe you dont give yourself enough credit with these models.
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words 🙏❤️
Man!! WELL FUCKING DONE!
THIS RAT LOOKS SO FUCKING BADASS
Yeah! 😁 Thanks
The man says he has no experience and yet he makes an amazing game. This game looks really good.
I had no experience when I started 8 years ago 😉
"I just follow youtube videos like and idiot until I get something that works" so friggen relatable. I am making a 2D character in 3D environment game in unreal and that's my whole entire game plan.
Hehe 😁
At least you have a game plan to start off from ✊👍
did you guys lerne the programing part with that to because i am atleast yet quite terible with that because i dont know the languages
@@taupathfinder657 no programming, only blueprints
@reeanimationgaming1034 yes. Learned from imitation, just like learning to tie your shoes or anything else really. Watch and repetition.
"It's just a rat man, what's so special about...OH SWEET NEPTUNE!"
😁🤙
With your rat model you can elongate the neck, change up the head a bit and give it a longer thicker tail for a reptile mob. This way you can animate things like a tail attack, deathroll attack for a lizardman or aligator man, or a acid spit attack for a bipedal snake man mob. You have a good basic shape for other sorts of humanoid mobs with your first rat model.
You are correct 🙂
Lizard and crocodile are on the to-do-list, alongside other swamp-themed enemies
I like the new rat character, I even think it can be a main character in a reversed game. Also like effort you spent on animations.
Could be fun to control him, I agree 🙂
Multipleyer/second game before the first is done
Speaking as a Vermintide lover, this might be the best humanoid rat model I've ever seen. I've always loved more polygonal art styles in games, and this ratman absolutely scratches that itch.
Thanks for the kind words ❤️ I really appreciate it 🙏
.....
the skaven have arrived
That first four minutes when you're outlining how anything can be learned, if the person is willing to fail and learn is what enraptured me. That you went from avoiding the work to being completely in love with your SKAVEN is what proves you'll take this far. Make sure to maintain that love for learning!
Yeah, you are correct 🙂
Next video will sorely focus on how I keep my motivation alive. So stay tuned for that 🙂
Ratman 3.0 is looking like a mean dude. Great work man. Also, your animations look incredible.
Thanks man. Appreciate it 🙂❤️
Man, the first design was menacing, the second one was realistic, but the third one is absolutely amazing. Both badass and realistic, with great details. Keep up the good work!
Thanks man! Appreciate the kind words 🙂❤️
@@reeanimationgaming1034 you're welcome. You deserve that!
Even as someone who knows a thing or two about programming, even I bang my head against the wall trying to make things work. 😅
With that said, your persistence and determination are admirable! I'm looking forward to seeing what you share next!
-Baron
Thanks man. That is comforting to know ☺️
Dude the rat models and animations are BADASS AWESOME! Also thank you for animation tutorial video, I'm struggling a bit with enemies for my own game and this helps alot!
Thanks 🙂
I should make more animation tutorials.. There’s not many good ones out there 😔
SKAVEN! YESYES!!
Also; I can say I love low poly designs, so I can say rat lookin good.
Thank you 🙂
What a glow-up! It looks absolutely fantastic. Honestly, I even liked your first ratman attempt, but it's completely blown out of the water with the final one.
Thank for the kind words. I really appreciate it ❤️🙏
Love this! I also like how you've done your own take on the "rat man" trope, love seeing a more realistic version
Thank for the kind words 🙏❤️
That new rat looks amazing!
It's brilliant. Great job.
It's badass!
Thanks man.. Exactly.. Badass!! 😀
4:59 That animation is actually really cool.
Especially the sparks,
Also hoky shit the 3.0 version looks great
Thanks 🙂
I will recreate that attack for the new rat (or the Toad brute)
I am going to name him “Rat-o”
BRO RAT-O LOOKS FUCKING SICK
Haha!! Thanks man 🙂
I love this rat model. Also animations are soooo good :o I mean this is what drag down 90% of indie games in presentation. They are lacking in terms of animation. Yours feels so good
Thanks. Yes exactly! Most Indie games are lacking severely in the animation department 😔
God the low poly with lots of detail just has me thinking: "Deep Rat Galactic" Love it! Keep up the good work!
I am the lead animator on deep rock galactic 🙂
Rock and stone Brother ✊
@@reeanimationgaming1034 Rock and Stone! I'll have to take that at face value.
This is really inspiring. I also struggle with 'making the enemy' part of the process. I'm always worried about modeling something when I don't yet know what that thing is going to be like but at the same time you need something modeled to work on animation focused combat like this. This video shows that process really well. You really just need to get started somewhere and then incrementally improve it until you're happy with it.
Yes exactly ✊
Moving towards something is better than standing still and not get anywhere
Damn, crazy growth on that Rat model, super well done Ronni, looking forward to see more!
Thanks 🙂❤️
5:37 that's something many do and enjoy. :)
to be honest, every model seems to shine when it went through your rigging / animation process
Thanks you 🙂❤️
SKAVEN YES-YES!
😁
That rat 3.0 is exceptionally well done. The growth is exponential between each model, well done.
Thanks man! I really appreciate the kind words 🙏❤️
Love watching this project! Your videos don't get tons of views, but I really think this is a special game. Super polished, looks very fun, and just a great example of a very cohesive indie game made by someone with passion.
Thanks a lot 🙏❤️
The game does mean a lot to me ✊
Ratman 3.0 looks like it should be an elite enemy. It looks so good, it's larger than Ratman 1.0, and it has all those rolls, blocks, and special attacks. I think Ratman 1.0 looks great too. maybe you could touch up the model and then Ratman 3.0 could be a Rat Chieftain that would appear with a group of smaller Ratman 1.0's. Awesome work!
Don’t worry. I will make elite rats that look even more badass 🙂✊
Skaven-Chad let into indie game! Yes-YES!
This is absolutely amazing and you should be proud of yourself for how far you’ve come with making this game, well done mate.
Thanks a lot 🙂❤️
holy moly. That looks awesome. i even like the first rats, they look good too but mr. rat 3.0 is awesome with only some parts having thar spiked fur - looks great.
Awesome that you got into blender - its an really awesome open source software.
The animations are really sick! gotta need to watch your animation tutorial.
Thanks man. Appreciate the kind words 🙂 Yes, Blender is next level! 👌
What you say in the outro is so relatable as someone who is in the same boat :D
Great video as always!
Hehe yeah. It’s an up hill battle 🙂
For some reason, it makes me really happy that you're so proud of your own progress and achivements 😄
The new model looks really cool! And the animations feel really smooth too.
Keep it up!
I'll take a look at your video about animating, thank you for sharing it here.
I'm more of a gameplay programmer, and never really touched much about animations.
It would be super cool if you could go into how are you "coding" the animations into the rest of your character controllers.
One thing I never get to know is, how does root motion works with all the rest of the character components (colliders and other stuff attached to the Blueprint).
Anyway, awesome work, I hope to see more!
Thanks 🙂 I don’t do anything special with animation. I just play montages 🤷
As for root motion, the way I see it. If root motion is off, the character mesh follows the character capsule collider. When root motion is on, the capsule follows the character mesh 🤷
But, I’m not entirely sure
advice for your videos:
-Talk to your rhythm
-take time to pose
-Work and follow your text
-Organize your text better
-(bonus for breaking through faster) work on your voice
but your introduction is already much better than most devlogs
Thanks, I think. Not sure what you mean? I don’t have any text, I just talk 🙂
@@reeanimationgaming1034 He mean that instead of having a disorganised video, a written text might help you plan the focus of your key point better while keeping your viewer engaged with the presentation, with few hint of comedy there. Helping to improve your viewership, but you do man.
@@freshinjail2402 arh ok. Thanks 🙂
It's incredible that you made this with 0 experience in game making. The animations, game feeling (at least looking at it from the video) and the combo mechanics looks so cool. You just got a new subscriber. If you ever need a spanish translation made, feel free to contact me, i'd be happy to help you even for free if you want to (because it also helps to add stuff to my CV lol). Anyways, i'll be following your dev logs, wish you the best man.
Thanks man! And thanks for staying around 🙂
Join the discord, which is probably where I will ask for translation if I ever get that far 🙂
Really impressive stuff and it shows amazing promise.
Rat enemies just always seem to bring out the fun parts of fantasy games, and this is no exception. Can't wait to see what more creative baddies you toss around for this exciting project.
Thanks man 🙂🙏
Really well done! The rat looks amazing and the execution animation is really dope, good luck with the game!
Thanks for dropping by, and for the kind words 🙂
Everything becomes more badass with tentacles.
Agree! 🤜🤛
I think the models are great, they fit the style and there is nothing really standing out in a bad way. Great video !
Thanks man. Appreciate the positive feedback 🙂❤️
The game looks great! I was impressed with the animations immediately, and now I understand why, haha. Honestly, it all looks really smooth & fun to play. The ratman looks terrific. Well done & best of luck with your game! 👏
Thanks for the kind words 🙂❤️
YOU NEED SOME KIND OF TENTACLE SHAMEN WHO CASTS PORTALS AND TENTACLES COME OUT OF THEM!!!!
The game will get both tentacles and shamans. 🙂👍
wow! new rat model is so awesome! your videos are very inspiring as always. keep up the good work and good luck with your project!
Thanks 🙂🙏
That roll and turn rat animation is next level awesome 👌 wow!
Thanks man ✊
Thank you for the pep talk, it hit close to home! I'm just an animator who likes video games too,and I've been doing the same thing. Seeing your progress is inspiring!
Thanks man! Appreciate you watching 🤜🤛
First of all, love the looks of the game. It's clearly in development, but it already looks promising and there is lots of love for detail there. Really nice to see. That being said, here is my quick feedback: The first rat enemy looked great, the second more realistic one didn't work for me as it looked more like a guy in a rat suit, but 3.0 definitely looks really fun. Love the roll especially, it feels quick, weighty but somewhat elegant at the same time. It feels realistic and convincing in a good way. It's the kind of movement you'd adapt as a kid when playing with your friends outside :D
But the cleave and shield seem more like props to me. They somehow don't look as if they have weight. As if they have no effect on the characters posture or speed. E.g. I'd imagine you'd need to yoink and pull the cleave off the ground to initiate a jump attack, not pull it mid air like a dagger. Basically let it's weight help you with gaining height. Also the slow down in the jump feels strange, especially as the roll looks so natural. So I'd go for a small wind up time and quick jump instead of a magically slowmo jump instead.
Also as a sidenote. If you just pause the video at 10:59 and ask someone which rats are the good guys and which are foes, I'd bet most would go for the colorful, bright, saturated red ones to be on your side, while the grey, desaturated ones with a colder palette are enemies. I know you just plopped them in quickly, but it's fun to see how colors, contrast and things you take over from other games affect gamefeel somehow. Also, the enemies should vary in size, make them smaller or bigger than the player to make it visually more interesting.
Keep it up, really looking forward to where this is heading.
Thanks for dropping by man 🙂
I more or less agree with everything you say 🙂 I will try and put more weight in the animations and exaggerate it more, like in that new game “No Rest for the Wicked”
Very inspiring stuff.
Thanks a lot for the feedback, I really appreciate it, and you are absolutely right 🤜🤛
He's a beautiful rat, good job
Thanks 🙂
Wow, that does look really good! And the animations are really smooth.
Thank you 🙏❤️
This looks so awesome dude well done, absolutely love the art style
Thanks! Appreciate it 🙏❤️
Future attack animation for the rat can be somehow with his tail and when he is jumping back he can use the shield to look like he is protecting himself while getting distance
Agree. Both good ideas 🙂👍
THIS LOOKS SO GOOD
I know the amount of work it takes to do something like this and I gotta say this is really Great Stuff!!
Really cool! As someone that's brand new to your channel it was really neat seeing how your game has evolved so far and especially this enemy! Love it!
YES YES THE UNDER DOWN EMPIRE RISES
Keep up the amazing work! Your game looks phenomenal, and I can’t wait to play it!
Thanks man.. Appreciate the kind words ❤
that rat looks awesome, you should look into giving some different armor as well!
Way ahead of you.. They will get armor variations and body color variations.. And I will make different versions like mages, and dual dagger ones.. Things like that 🙂
You are an Amazing Artist! Keep going my friend!
Thanks man 🙂✊
Been waiting a long time for a new video. It didn't disappoint!
Thanks man, appreciate it ❤️.. Another one will come in the near future 🙂 Stay tuned ✊
VERY VERY NICE! I love your passion. Good job Ronnie.
Thanks man 🙂
All i can say is that the slam shield into ground and charge attack is damn cool. So that needs to come back.
And the rats jump attack is cool and all, but there should be a weight so that it does it a bit less often. But that is just tweaking and current lack of attack options. That will not be a problem later on.
It's a cool rat.
Thanks. Yeah, when he gets more attacks it will happen less often.. But I would still like a system where I can set how often an attack will get chosen, or other conditions
@@reeanimationgaming1034 I am 100% certain it's possible, but i don't know any other programming terms for it apart from weight.
As in you can assign weights to certain results so they happen more often among a list.
Which would work for loot in chests, making different attacks more or less common for AI, probably some environmental effects as well.
As in i dunno, a lightning strike having a certain chance of happening, dunno.
This video was unbelievably inspirational. Thank you.
❤️🙏
love your work , keep rolling
✊❤️
Bro you are such an inspiration. Thanks for making videos!
Thanks for watching dude 🙂❤️
Making 280 polygons look like a rat warrior takes a lot of skill.
Thanks man 🙂❤️
amazing work dude! i am amazed and in awe
Thanks man . You are too kind ❤️🙏
Damn it, Well done bro, I'll tag along.
Love it, be sure to put some demos and alpha testing :)
Thanks for dropping by. Demo will come. But it’s way out in the future
Cool to see how the game is progressing, seen your videos over the years starting from the procedural racing videos and it's definitely some good content, keep it up!
Thanks man 🙂
Amazing work, your creativity has no limits, keep pushing it!
Thanks man ✊
those rats r absolutelly fantastic men, congratulations. Im making my first game now n yt r helping me a lot too, yt, chat gpt...

MAAAN Wow its really impressive how your animator background can give that Rat so much live in the movements , it does look really nice
Thanks man! Appreciate it 🙂❤️
Awesome game!!! Combat looks fun and the fatalities are amazing!
Thanks 🙂🙏
Man, the game just keeps getting better and better! Do you plan on adding a system that lets you recruit multiple entities to fight for you? I do agree that watching AI fight is highly entertaining! :D
Thanks man! Appreciate the kind words.
Yes. There will be a tavern where you can recruit randomly generated mercenaries to come with you.
Also, som spells will be summons 🙂
well done-done! I express gratitude-happy to creator-maker, will not kill-murder you for now-now!!
(cheers if you got what this was referencing)
Hehe.. I’m guessing warhammer.. Getting a lot of skaven references on this video..
I haven’t read any warhammer books or lore. So don’t know much about.. 🤷
Would love to read a novel about the Skaven though…
Good video. I really like to see the creative process and progression of each person, and it opens my eye for new ideas each time
Thanks 🙂
Then you need to watch my newer video on exploding barrels, it has some nice views on gameplay 🙂
Awesome work man ! Really liked seeing the before and after, I Liked the old Rat Shield charge at you animation, Other than that everything is great and more polished ! keep it up
Thanks man 🙂 The shield bash attack will return. I just need to make it again 🙂
I really love your videos. It gives me soo much hope and encourages me to get on and continue with my game and go for it!! You're soo honest, down to earth and encouraging. Amazing skills and love your model styles! Yes your Ratman is BAD ASS!! Congrats!! Look forward to more...
Thanks man. I really appreciate the kind words 🙂❤️
game looks and feels amazing, something i would love to try. great job with all the progress and thanks for extra motivation!
Thanks for the kind words 🙂❤️
Good work dude, keep it up.
🙂✊
So sick. Good work man
Thanks ❤️
I love that we can see the sheer creativity and passion on display here. Keep it up man
Thanks 🙂 I will ✊
Amazing stuff, your journey as a game dev is really inspiring. Would you consider maybe doing a video on how to sync animations of 2 characters like the fatality moves you had for the rats early on.
Thanks man. Yeah, I might touch on that when I get to it. Might not be a tutorial though 🤷
The decapitation animation is so good, how did you manage to do that?
Rats look SICK! :D
🙂✊
