In this quick peek, I’m testing the first animation layer for Lobo’s dialogue system: body animations Next up: facial expressions and lipsync— I'm getting closer to fully immersive dialogue!

All implemented in Unreal Engine 5 🎮 Thanks for watching!

Clothing clipping through the body is one of the most annoying issues when designing modular characters. In this video, I show the system I created to solve it by dynamically masking the body based on equipped items—no more visual glitches!

Combat isn't just about hitting hard—it's about how they react! Testing hit animations, pushback, camera shake, and sounds in a basic arena to focus on juicy feedback. If it works here, it'll shine with final assets!

Combat in Lobo: The Howl Within just leveled up. With new attack animations and fierce facial expressions, every battle now hits harder. This update adds raw emotion to every swing, making you feel the heat of the fight. Are you ready to throw down?

Here’s a quick look at the second animation—facial expressions and lipsync, created using iClone  and Unreal Engine. 

Each character’s expression is tied to the tone of the conversation, building on the body animation layer shown earlier. 

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

A first look at the eerie Dead Forest in Lobo. To navigate the thick, cursed fog, you’ll need to find and light ancient lanterns—but beware… the trees aren’t the only things that are dead.
