The Case Study

Skeletal Creature Builder

Standalone Creative App · 40+ Creature Templates · Physics Animation · Floating Panel UI · WebSocket Tunnel

A standalone skeletal creature builder evolved from the p5 Studio foundation. Choose from 40+ anatomically-aware templates — butterflies, octopi, wolves, owls, dolphins, people — each pre-rigged with species-appropriate joint placement. The Actions panel organizes 20+ motion types (walk, run, fly, swim, crawl, bounce, dance, jump, flip), each with tunable stride, body bob, sway, limb lift, speed, asymmetry, fluidity, and jitter. A Skin system wraps semi-transparent membrane over skeletons. Connects to the Animation Studio via WebSocket tunnel, layering creatures over any of the 57 visual effects.
