Voxel Character Animator

Bring any voxel or stylized humanoid character to life without creating animation clips.

Voxel Character Animator is a complete procedural animation system built around a standardized humanoid voxel rig. Simply assign your character's bones once, and the system generates smooth animations entirely through code.

Unlike traditional Animator Controller workflows, no animation clips or blend trees are required. Every movement is calculated procedurally in real time, making the system lightweight, highly customizable, and easy to integrate into existing projects.

The included rig uses a simple voxel-friendly skeleton composed of:

• Chest (root body)
• Head
• Left/Right Upper Arm
• Left/Right Lower Arm
• Left/Right Upper Leg
• Left/Right Lower Leg

CharacterRoot

└── Chest

├── Head

├── UpperArm_L

│ └── LowerArm_L

├── UpperArm_R

│ └── LowerArm_R

├── UpperLeg_L

│ └── LowerLeg_L

└── UpperLeg_R

└── LowerLeg_R

This standardized hierarchy allows you to reuse the animator across multiple voxel characters, enemies, NPCs, or player avatars by simply assigning the corresponding transforms.

The package includes eight complete animation states:

• Idle
• Walk
• Run
• Sprint
• Jump
• Swim Idle
• Swim
• Death

Two animation styles can be switched instantly at runtime:

• Minecraft Style — rigid limbs with classic blocky movement.
• Roblox Style — flexible elbows and knees with more organic motion.

The package also includes:

• Integrated 3D spatial audio synchronized with animations
• Production-ready CharacterController
• Third-person camera
• Legacy Input, New Input System or Both
• Swimming system
• Slope handling
• Physics synchronization
• Runtime parameter tuning
• Debug and validation tools

Designed for scalability, the animator is optimized for scenes containing 50+ simultaneously animated characters, making it suitable for players, NPC crowds, enemies, and AI-controlled characters.

Perfect for:

• Voxel games
• Sandbox games
• Survival games
• RPGs
• Adventure games
• Multiplayer projects
• NPC animation systems
• Rapid prototyping

No animation experience required—assign the rig, configure the proportions, and your characters are ready to move.
