Unlock Playful Animation with BOLT’s Advanced Features:

• Tactile, Story-Rich 3D Aesthetic: BOLT’s charm lies in its details. The 2D artwork utilizes advanced texture work to simulate realistic materials like brushed metal, chipped paint, and soft, flexible tubing, giving it a beloved, well-used toy-like quality with incredible visual depth.

• Exaggerated Cartoon Rigging for Maximum Comedy: Built for laughs and big feelings. The rigging incorporates principles of squash and stretch, allowing BOLT to jump for joy, wobble in confusion, or slump in defeat. Physics-enabled elements like a springy antenna and loose wires add a layer of secondary animation that brings the character to life.

• Hyper-Expressive Face Tracking: BOLT’s large, luminous eyes and movable mouth plate are exquisitely mapped to your webcam input. Your smiles, surprise, and eyebrow raises are amplified into hilarious and heartwarming character reactions, creating an instant emotional feedback loop with your viewers.

• Dynamic Walk Cycle & Bouncy Motions: Movement is full of character. Engage BOLT’s signature walk cycle—a charming, slightly uneven gait that reinforces its quirky personality—for entrances, exits, or simply pacing while thinking aloud during a live stream.

• Library of Comedy Triggers & Gestures: Elevate your comedy timing. Instantly trigger classic comedic gestures like a dramatic facepalm, a jubilant fist pump, a confused head scratch, or a shocked double-take with a single keystroke, keeping your content engaging and visually fresh.
