Commencing 0peration Borealis

Posted by LittleLuckyLink - March 20th, 2024


Ahoi everyone, 0peration Borealis has begun…


What is 0peration Borealis? 


0peration Borealis is yet another installment to my Madness Combat/Zombie series. 0peration Borealis takes place in a small, isolated village on an island near the North Pole, where a strange plague has overwhelmed the villagers, rendering many of them bedridden and delirious. Two weeks later, those that are curiously unaffected by this plague must combine their strength and work together to provide for the ill, but with no sign of improvement and resources stretched thin, the unaffected have grown weary and demoralized. With the true nature of this plague and the forces behind it shrouded in mystery, the villagers must soon face an evil more chilling than the icy winds of the arctic…


0peration Borealis will see a completely fresh art style, reflecting the work of many of my paintings over the years. No longer bound by software or hardware limitations, 0peration Borealis will ascend the plateau of what I am capable of creating far beyond anything I’ve ever done. It will be a challenge, but I am determined to see my vision come to fruition, no matter the effort or time needed to create this. I predict the animation to be around 10-15 minutes long, and as of right now, I do not have an estimated release date. It’s unlikely that it’ll be finished for Madness Day 2024, but I’d like to shoot for sometime next winter, so possibly either late 2024, or early/mid 2025. I will not be rushing this animation whatsoever, so please bear with me as I cook. I'll occasionally post screenshots here, as well as Twitter (despite the fact that I strongly dislike Twitter.)


As of right now, I've recorded over 500 sound effects including ambience, voices and zombie sounds, I've finished the storyboard, and am nearly finished with the main character sprites. I have also started learning Blender and brushing up my After Effects skills since I haven't really done too much with AE aside from some basic editing and some embarrassing lightsaber videos I edited of myself when I was like 10 years old.


I will also be participating in a few really neat things that I'm excited to share more details about when the time comes.


Commissions will remain closed until further notice. 


Until then, don't eat the red snow..

(I know I keep posting this old teaser painting I made back in 2021 but I'm not quite ready to share any screenshots quite yet, unless this very basic WIP screenshot of the northern lights that I made in Blender gets anyone's blood flowing.)

This thing looks like it'll be a sleeper hit once it hits the Judgement tab. Taking people by storm.

I'm in

HOLY SHIT ! This sounds so interesting and whimsical… I can’t wait and I’ll look forward for progress on your new installment in the zombie series :3 !

Hyped as fuck man, looking forward to it

LET'S FUCKING GOOO

Does being another installment of your zombie animations mean we'll see any shared characters besides those who are zombified? Either way, very excited to see the finished results here!

Heheheh it's a secret... I'll say that there may be a familiar face at some point, but since this takes place roughly 10-15 years before Dawn, it might not be anyone we're super familiar with. However, I think it'll be great for the expansion of the lore of the series.

So is this like a spin-off series? But this time Karlie ain't gonna appear in this one?

Pretty much. It's not going to be an entire series though, just one episode set in a different time and place from Dawn/Day/Dusk/OT. We will rejoin with Karlie in Night of the Living Madness.

@LittleLuckyLink Which means more new badass characters, zombies and more new weapons as well?

Indeed >:D

@LittleLuckyLink Fucking A Bro! Looking forward to it. Maybe in the fifth installment, it should show what Karlie's life was like before the outback. Did she too had a family of her own? A child? or maybe a little brother she really cared about?

I don’t have any plans to give her a family, but an idea that I had for one of the potential prequel shorts would be how she ended up crashing into the grocery store in the first episode. I’d use this opportunity to explore her background as an EMS pilot, possibly having her work a shift when the outbreak happens and having to fight her way down from the roof of the hospital.

I could potentially explore this idea in Night of the Living Madness when we rejoin the main surviving cast of the series. I’m still on the fence of exactly how many/if I even want to keep making prequels afterwards. I guess only time will tell! These things are super fun to make, and I’d really love to have that kind of time to work on them.

Oh my God I came back to your account because as I was reminiscing the happiness I had when Overtime came out, the comments were on about you making spinoff/s. Now I'm here, boom! Hi LLL! Can't wait!

@LittleLuckyLink It's okay. It's your animation stories after all. Please take all the time you need. And I sure hope your life is getting better. Did you ever thought making Dawn of the madness into a flash game? Maybe similar like Project Nexus? Just a cool idea

Thanks! The idea of making a game would be SO COOL! I'm unfortunately not very good at programming, so it'd definitely be an idea I would have to collaborate on.

@LittleLuckyLink Maybe you could talk to Michael Swain and see if he could make DOTM into a flash game. But I want a 2D version not the 3D. Too complicated.

Holy shit!! bro im just glad you actually cooking after overtime, you are a part of my childhood with many other animators on this site,stay safe and be looking forward for whatever you make next!!!!

Thanks! I'm excited to share more soon!

@LittleLuckyLink IM SO EXCITED I CANT WAIT ! <3 Its one of My objectif if u Respond me XD i want u know ty for ur series even if u traumatized me when i was younger BUT KEEP IT UP WE ALL SUPORT YOU!!! <3

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it :)

Boys, kino's back on the menu!

Happy 30th birthday LLL, and welcome to a new decade!

uff se viene otra obra audiovisual de LLL "revivio el cine"
