0:47 *RoR2 NOISES INTENSIFY* But seriously dude, good work on your video. I used Blender before and, while not being the same as Unity (Well ofc), it has alot of creative potensial. FUNKe's vids are very well animated with Blender, same as yours. Well done dude! I also checked your previous videos and the improvement is staggering! Just be prepared to spend a *bit* more time on videos than before as blender can take some more time than drawn animations.

[@Yummiiii_theonly]

fun little note . blender had a game engine till version 2.7 integrated to the main app but after 2.8 it was removed ... but the community revived it and it's name is UPBGE . its a fun little engine that I think you would like to explore around in .(edit : it appears there is another revived version of the blender game engine aswell and that one's name is Range Engine)

You definitely made it look really easy because I am trying to learn blender now, and I am struggling with it terribly, but hopefully, I can keep the motivation and achieve what you have. It would be really interesting and helpful if you made a more long-form video explaining how you learned all of this and giving additional tips, but obviously, it seems like you have your eyes set on a different creative project, so if you never make something like this, it's very understandable.
