In this devlog I overhaul the first-person viewmodel animation system. I did this so that I could add a bolt-action rifle, the Tankgewehr. The new system also allows for reload animations where both hands let go of the weapon model at various times. The animation system is now mostly driven by code, using procedural animation - now the only full animations I have to make are the reloads, and everything else like the equip, unequip, weapon sway, weapon firing, can all be done procedurally. In the second half of the video, I do some level design, and replace the church area greybox with proper assets. It's not entirely finished, but for now it looks pretty good I reckon.
I am making this game using Unity & HDRP. The game is set in World War I, and the gameplay is inspired by horde games like Call of Duty Zombies - i.e. a round-based co-op zombie shooter. The visuals and atmosphere are inspired by games like Battlefield I.

Sorry for the long wait between videos, things have been really busy IRL, but I will not give up! Hope you enjoy!!
Don't worry mate, this content you create gives off early 2010s MLG vibes with all of the memes you incorporate into the videos.
Education over internet boss, don't prioritize the virtual world for the real one, keep up the amazing work boss.
hey what's your plans for music, i'm not saying i wanna make it ( i'm definitely not good enough ) i just wanna know
@@Haddanburg thank you very much! what do you mean "but respectable"?
@@Haddanburg i apologize, i haven't seen it and still not able to find that part, it is true that i want to do it, i sounds like lots of fun but i'm just not in that level yet.
why is the reload animation for the rifle questionably higher quality than the other weapons. god dayum that reload is fire
Probably cause it’s newer, got some practice
Big gun deserve the extra because canons are cool.
@@drsquid7986or that I was thinking it might of been his first hence it has more work than others
When we needed him most.. he came back.. truly a legend!
shooting the tankgewehr while standing? what an absolute unit this soldier is
Or he didn't shoulder it
It would break your shoulder if you did that
@@SerbianMoss this is why they added a pistol grip. I saw one few years ago. The stock is huge ( there is one tankGewehr in the Berlin muséum), report from the développement team said even in the prone position, with a traditional grip, the shooter break his shoulder
@joak9755 yes, it's a very powerful rifle with not a lot stopping the recoil
As a fellow (rookie) developer, it is very reassuring to know that other's go through the same troubles and nuiances that I do (and that the issues that I'm facing are natural to come, and it's not me messing up). Keep working on your game, and I'm rooting for you. I am also currently dealing with the creating animations phase. I know what I want to see in my game but the execution method is trial and error. Your game looks awesome, keep it up.
Don't forget to add the weapon sway when jumping/landing. Really adds to the movement. Keep up the grind!
Just joined the patreon, you don't understand how long I've been waiting for something like this and I'll throw money at it if it means helping the process go faster.
Thanks!! Appreciate you
2:51 Ooooh I'm going to be excited to see how many zombies that will tunnel through.
Zombies do not look like the zombies from the "Rare Zombie" Thread, sad ( 🤙)
All in good time 😄
Church looks production ready to me outside of adding some set dressing like you mentioned! Looking forward to play testing!
Hide a tiny Keanu Reeves somewhere on the map and I'll wishlist
Suggestion: To me, it feels strange going into a VR game that has big guns with small or skinny hands. It’s just super jarring seeing the scale, and though it’s not as prominent in this project, I would suggest maybe some gloves for the character? Maybe a new hand model that’s about 10% to 15% bigger? I feel like it would feel a lot better in that case, but that’s just me
ahh good to see you're making progress, wishlisted!
I love your content man.
Just wanted to ask if you could do a tutorial for the thing where you can move the weapon during the animation, yet it still plays the animation without being disrupted.
I’m implementing the weapon sway, ads and animation in the most tedious way possible and I’d love to learn your approach!
Just wishlisted the game! I'm also working on a co-op game so had to built a steam page aswell. I would suggest you to rearranging your steam page tags. Current similar games showed in your page are CS and Rainbow which are not too similar to your game. Instead you can put the Online Coop in the first 4 maybe so rather than counter strike, left 4 dead 2 can show up. I'm sure it will help the page getting more attention.
Thanks for the tip!
Your adlibs or whatever it's called are just fucking hilarious.
If a gun is too strong, make the ammunition more uncommon. OR Make it so you can’t shoot without using the bipod.
The movement of the weapon is very satisfactory, good work!
Nearly a whole year! But he’s back!
So intrigued by this project
Dude this is looking great can't wait for more updates!
i first found you channel when the zombies where still beans. like devlog 2 probly
So happy I finally found this again. Genuinely pumped for Blood Rot to come out!
First video about this I have ever seen, so glad it showed up in my recommendations. WW1 games are few and far between, this looks really good, I will watch this project with great interest.
Ok... you peeked my interest... wish listing good luck dude
Love seeing more progress on this project! After you have the map done are you planning on doing a main easter egg like in bo2 - Cw zombies?
Yeah I plan to do some kind of story/easter egg things at some point
"We'll be home by Christmas." Hah, genius.
take all the time you need theres just one person making this game and i love the progress
I love the game's concepts, definitely adding it to my wishlist
It's been a while since he came back to introduce animations and game making work ❤
I first saw your video about bean zombies. Put the game on my wishlist right after.
In some games when you move the camera the gun rotates and moves the opposite direction, maybe you could also had a bit of translation to make it look better
Absolutely Masterpiece! 🤯Wishlisting it NOW.
To be honest, as a solo game dev myself, I gained a lot from this 7min video. Not only taught me techniques for enhancing game feel, but also how to craft high quality, funny and super informative devlogs as well. This is a pure Art! 💗
All the best with the release of your game!
because of the music at the end im subbing and wishlisting it and sharing it to my friends
Awesome bro!
Subscribed! 👍Appreciate the hard work!
Its a first time seeing you videos and game you are working on it, it is fantastic, I had same idea to make a game like what you do,, I think its time to change it to something different 😅 Great Job, fantastic 👍
It's ok to have similar games, the more the merrier!
How good it is to see you back!
no fucking way you just ended the video with that meme.
my respects lol
also isnt that the firing sound of the tankgewehr from battlefield 1?
Yeah it is, I just used it for demonstration purposes :D I'm working on audio next
damn shit looks fantastic
im looking forward for the release
That church looks so good so far can’t wait to see it when it’s done
Great job. You could leverage the IK retargeting though, instead of attaching hands to the gun. The idea is to copy the anim pose from hands to their IK targets, apply procedural stuff, apply IK. This will preserve the original pose, and you won't have to rely on the gun-hand bones. Might be useful for general motions, like a tactical sprint with a pistol. Anyways, you got a wishlist)
Thanks for the tip! Love your work, really helped me understand things better and looks like an awesome package!
I'm not sure how I hadn't seen this but thanks to TH-cam's recommended I finally found it and now it's added to my wishlist and my gosh I am ready for this game now. I would love to have some new zombies game that makes me feel like some WaW Zombies again in some way that feels different. Can't wait! You have my intruige that's for sure
Hey love this cant wait until you release the full game
I happened to pass by, if you're truly interested in building destruction, you should take a look at the Rayfire asset :)
Good luck on your quest !
I am really excited for this! I love round based zombie games!
If you're considering a second attempt on the church, consider making it look like a field hospital, considering many churches were used as makeshift field hospitals, can't wait for more updates!
Well done. It looks great
your weapon animations look sick!
Thanks! And keep up your dev logs, I've been watching for a while!
@@obrooks will do! :]
gunplay looks solid, great job!
Is this digimon? My grandson wants digimon
This popped up in my recommendations. The game looks like it has a ton of potential. A ww1 zombie game looks like a nightmare to play. Especially if you add bolt action firearms. I'm looking forward to more updates.
it'd be cool to see more experimental/unreleased weapons from the era that never went into production, kinda like the weapons in Battlefield 1, btw stellar work, looks really good!
It looks like the pistol is to light so it looks a little weird, So you should make the pistols two handed, or give the pistols more recoil backwards towards the character not upwards . Other wise I love how much work and love ❤ you put in to the game. I can’t wait to see what happens with it and eventually play it.
the new first person animation look awesome! great job
been waiting years for this (great video :)
You should add the Mosin Obrez bolt action pistol to the game, you could reuse animations from the Tankgewehr M1918, you could also add a P08 Carbine so their would be that weird pistol-caliber Carbine Rifle that has the magazine from the MP-18.
That round is an absolute power house of a bullet from what little ive seen of it. could be really cool if that made more of an effect on the zombie models (more boom or splat). might be a bitch to code or implement, idk much about the game making process. Looks really cool regardless!! I like the attention to detail on the guns. Looks like you did your research and didnt just slap a m1911a1 model in like BF1 did lol. We will follow your career with great intrest.
I think a turret/stationary machine gun would be a pretty dope addition
glad to finally see you post a new update.
Very usefull mate! Thank you !!!!
As a dev myself making my own game. It's good to see a new devlog for this game :D
Special zombies like flammenwerfers or sturmmentruppen after a certain amount of waves could be neat, I think
ww1 + cod zombies? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP. Found your channel through this vid. Keep up the good work!
Two words, gg Bro 💪🏻, with this u man, is returned my motivation to programming in unity, Ty!
wishlisted and consider it purchased. As long as it has proton support that is
amazing work, keep it up
Hey, if you're going for more of a blacks ops zombies style (including perks & stuff) maybe you could add a perk where you could basically run through zombies. For example, you get the perk and you can run into the zombies and kill the ones in your path to get through a horde. You could call the perk "over the top" and add a whistle-blow sound when you charge. I think that would be cool.
Interesting idea!
How did I JUST find this guy, no clue what happened to dani but this guy is great to watch while the messiah risas again
Good to see a new update to the devlog
Wow this looks cool! it reminds me of a combination of CoD Zombies and NecroVisioN!
your really good at animation
The game looks so good man, keep it up!
Its a rare occurrence but I do love it when you upload!
dude really went "i made a zombie ww1 game...anyway MAUSER TANKGEWEHR"
Fantastic video mate. I have been having the exact same issue for months, although I am still a bit confused as to what the structure is exactly. So you have the player rig, but then you also have the weapon rig, which is a separate rig, but still the same armature?
So the player rig has a bone for the weapon, and the weapon has it's own rig (to animate the moving parts of the weapon). In blender when animating, the gun's root bone is parented to the player rig's weapon bone via a constraint. Then an animation is created for both the gun and player rig, e.g. a reload animation.
In Unity, the gun's root bone is again "parented" to the player rig's weapon bone using the animation rigging package.
For the hands, there is a bone for each hand under the weapon bone of the player rig - let's call it a hand control bone. In blender, all these hand control bones do is copy the rotation and location of their respective hands on the rig. Then, in unity things kind of get inverted, so now the hands on the player rig get "parented" to the hand control bones of the weapon bone. So now, if the weapon bone is moved around, the gun follows it as well as both hands (because the hand control bones are children of the weapon bone). Hope this helps!
@@obrooks Massively. Thanks.
This game is looking sick!
Added to wishlist. Curious what your plans are for the HUD? I remember the HUD's in Cod Zombies being very good until maybe Blops 4 when they looked very basic and everyone hated them.
To begin with, I'm going to have the UI more simple and clean, perhaps similar to battlefield 1, but in future I want to explore a more skeumorphic design. That might be harder to achieve/do well, so I may need to hire a UI designer to help on it
Hahahaha that nod to Sam sulek was hilarious
Yooo I've been watching this devlog for a while and I would really love to make some music for this when the time comes 😁😁
I love the memes and effort you put into these vids
game looks sick, and the building looks awesome fits really well. player character has some tiny lil baby hands though. Looks like a kid reloading the guns lol, i know the new rifle is big so that one makes sense, but the other guns also look big for the players hands
you should totally make a story line with cool easter eggs for each one of them
edit: I forgot to subscribe even tho I've been watching from the start but I've always had you on my mind.
You probably won't see this, but it'd be awesome if we could choose between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers for our character. That way it could be a sort of "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation. Even if you don't, I'm stoked for this game.
Nah those reload animations are actually sick
Nice desgin and models
hey man simple idea, zombies dont jump off ledges, they land on all 4s and stuff and higher drops they ragdoll/fall flat/die, even better. euphoria ragdolls.
Kudos for actually pronouncing Tankgewehr really good, as a german normally that name is butchered into Hell haha
What kind of constraint are you using for the weapon bone ? I'm trying to make the same system you made and I'm using the Multi-Parent Constraint with offset but it does not work as intented.
9 months later, and he comes back to improve my day. Loving the progress
U should make a camo or weapon skin for patreon users before the game release as a thank u for supporting :)
I have some weapon suggestions that fit wonderfully for ww1. Springfield m1903. Lee enfield rifle. G98/88. Webley revolver. Po8 luger. And of course theres many others, maybe consider melee weapons like shovels and daggars and other trench raiding weapons.
Chris Zukowski suggests having 10k wishlists before nextfest, if you haven't watched his talks look them up on here
This seems very promising and I've only watched this video so far
Well well well, i'm glad i didn't miss it.
Good work! 👍 I wish I could do this
Man, you alone are making a more polished game than the devs behind Beyond the Wire.
oh hell ya, another devlog
I'm so glad people are still making Zombie games. Killing the undead never gets old for me and changing the scenery and time period always spices things up. If only we could get a realistic Napoleonic themed zombie game.
You should add Zombies grabbing the player and the player being able to press a button multiple times to push the zombie off the player
Epic work, man 👍
