Zombies!!
Because they come out in droves and generally look the same among types, I thought it best to add as many run cycles as I could, as well as iterating on other repeated animations to make them seem less samey.
The design methodology of the zombies was that the would keep some aspect of their former life in zombie form. For example the 3 special enemy variants are like ‘super fans’ of a particular playable idol, and thus have some kind of similar ability.
I also used this idea to inform some of the running animations to give them more variety and personality.
Some Tank attack animations, and a playblast render of the cutscene (with the prerendered parts done fully in Blender spliced in).
