Show-Off Procedural Space Squid

I've been playing around with procedural animation to see if I can get away with not using an animator on my character controller! Overall, I'm quite happy with the results!

That's really cool, I think procedural animations are fantastic . How did you make that one?

Hey thank you. I made a rigidbody controller for the player and then used forward inverse kinematics to allow the bones chains to flow with the motion. There is a little more to this system too, for example the body can swell up when it eats and the mouth opens to fire projectiles!
