Behind the Scenes: Secret Bunker Roller Coaster Ride

Bart · May 21, 2025

Futuristic multi-level floating house with blue railings, surrounded by water, featuring trees and red flags.

Marty created this wild roller coaster ride and shares a detailed breakdown on Blender Artists.

This is a project I’ve been working on for a while now – an animation of a wild roller coaster ride through a secret bunker hideout in the middle of the ocean!
If you’re interested in how I made this thing, I’ve created a short write-up below that touches on most of the important parts.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.

This is really cool project! I enjoyed the video very much and would love to see 360 version of it also if it’s not too much effort to render.

I have released the VR video, but I haven’t had time (yet) to do the 3D sound, unfortunately. Hopefully soon!
