It's going to be a short game, so I don't want to give too much away.
But yes, there will be few Zerg as opponents with at least two pre-rendered animations each (copulation and death when we lost).

I also wouldn't expect the project to be completed soon, as I don't have any financial support, I have to reconcile my daily work with project work. Preparing each model, animation, room, every script in the game, all alone - it all takes a long time.

I don't quite make Zerg models from scratch (and the character models are all ready-made I found online), but the only Zerg models I've found are actually low poly and lack textures, so I need to resculpt them a bit, recreate the decimate damage, create a mesh UV, texture, armature, animate etc.

As of what's currently done, it's a complete one Zerg, one loss animation with him, the first 2 minutes of gameplay, the first ero scene in the form of an intro (with human characters) and one environmental death animation.
I would at least share this intro, but I insisted that they will have voice acting. It costs money, and I don't want to risk it so early in the production that I'll pay for the scene and in a few months it will turn out that this actress won't/can't participate anymore and the money will go to the trash.

What's more, I recently discovered the WildLife sandbox and am currently creating a map for it. The fact that after a relatively short time you can see the progress of your work is very motivating.
But of course I'm not abandoning Codename: Z3R9.
