The on-going space voxel project by the six sibling studio, ZanMgt! A labor of love, Blockade Runner is an ever-evolving development that's currently undergoing a major engine overhaul to provide a solid foundation for the game's bi-weekly builds. We've found the bi-weekly builds to be an enjoyable and healthy development cycle and are anxiously preparing the game for their return!

Concept art of a small assault craft with animation for custom geometry. Note that this is just concept art and not actual in-game rendering. In other words, an awesome video for how we see Blockade Runner.

Hey all! Micah here with a detour from Blockade Runner’s current goings-on. While we get some left over glitches taken care of for the video that will reveal just why it’s taken so long to get an update up, I thought it’d be fun to put up this old concept render I did of Blockade Runner. The render was mostly used for testing animation for custom geometry: How many bones for each segment, what we would have to do in case a model twisted into another and things like that.

So take a look at the video below and get a taste of some of the animation Blockade Runner’s custom models are going to have!


I particularly had fun doing the side wing things which I’ll call... solar panels?

So I hope you enjoyed that little snippet of our conceptual designs for the game ‘cause I had tons of fun making it! :D Many of our new custom models require a little testing beforehand so you can expect more of these concept renders in the future.

Feel free to post a comment on this post!

Cant help it, that shipdesign somehow reminds me of the old wing commander privateer. Which is good! :D

Solar panels? More like S-Foils :P
Looks awesome, any chance of another release sometime soon?
