Lead Animators and Technical Artists
Initial character concepting and technical animation planning
The HERO mind map template provides a structured framework for game designers and animators to define character assets, covering 155 nodes across animation, visual design, and gameplay mechanics. This HERO template serves as a comprehensive HERO cheat sheet for development teams, detailing the essential 'ANIMATION HERO' requirements such as 'CƠ BẢN - BASE*' movements and 'BIỂU CẢM CĂN BẢN' (basic expressions). It bridges the gap between artistic vision and technical implementation by categorizing 'SKIN HERO' components like head, body, and accessories alongside 'HERO -> MECHANIC VỚI' interactions. By using this HERO mind map, creators can ensure consistency in character behavior, from idle states to complex skill interactions like being stunned or poisoned.

Open the .xmind file in Xmind to view the pre-structured hierarchy of animation and skin nodes.
Replace generic labels like 'SKIN HERO' or 'SKILL' with your specific character names and unique ability descriptions.
Use the export function to share the character breakdown as an image or PDF for the animation and engineering departments.
This template includes a detailed breakdown of character animation states, visual skin components (head, body, accessories), and mechanical interactions with skills and items. It covers over 150 nodes to ensure no character detail is overlooked during the game development process.
Start by defining the 'ANIMATION HERO' base movements, then move to the 'SKIN HERO' section to map out visual assets. Finally, use the mechanics branch to define how the hero reacts to external triggers like status effects or environmental tools.
Yes, the template is fully editable. You can add specific skill names under the 'SKILL' node or expand the 'PHỤ KIỆN' (accessories) section to fit your specific game genre and character requirements.
It is used to define the core locomotion and state machine for a character, including walking, combat stances, and idle animations which form the foundation of any playable hero.
