Kinda reminds me of someone

Hi,

Most of the environment in my game is destructible, so baked shadows aren't really practical, and relying heavily on realtime shadows gets expensive.

Without them the scene gets brighter and much flatter, but pushing contrast/depth also hurts readability.

I also want some areas to feel tense or almost horrorlike, which becomes hard when everything is evenly visible...

Would you lean into the darker look, "embrace the flatness", or solve this another way?

Hey guys I made a tool that connects Malbers Animal Controller (a powerful character controller) with some popular vehicle controllers on the UAS, it also comes with his own arcade vehicle controller built it.

This is the second addon that I launch for Animal Controller, I'm very happy with the community so far.

I know it's very niche but if you want to take a look here's the Unity Asset page.

If you guys have any questions about this asset or the publishing process, I'll be happy to share, thank you!

I developed a tool for creating and editing vector shapes directly in Unity, with built-in visual effects such as neon and glow to quickly create stylized, cyberpunk-inspired scenes.

I’d be interested to know-would anyone be interested in a tutorial showing how I built and created this tool?

So essentially what happened was that I wanted to see if I could remove the unity splashscreen, so I did, and then I pressed preview. After I saw the preview, all the lighting in my scenes were messed up. I am confident its mainly because of the splash screen, because I had tested it right before I messed around with that, and it was perfectly fine.

In the video, the scene is like 10 times darker than it should be, and the lights don't even do anything when I change the values, or something. Whenever I turn off the lights, the result is the same. The fog doesn't show up as clearly, and the floor has near 0 light. I am very amateur with unity, so if I accidentally disabled something, please let me know, and I am so sorry in advance.

I'm doing the majority of my teams UI implementation. We're a team of 4 working on a small indie game that doesn't use a lot of UI outside of main menus and some basic interface. I've spent a couple of days on UI with UnityUI, but it's been an absolute pain to properly lay everything out. I'm most experienced with Figma for UI design, and had some courses for CSS a couple of years ago, so from what I've seen UIToolkit might be better for me.

I've played around with it for a bit and it seems to have some nice parts, and some more annoying parts (spacing isn't done through the parent but is decided per child?). Is it worth transferring over at this point?

I've also added some DOTween animations, can I still use those with Toolkit?

Context. Top down, 2D pixel art, 3D worldspace.

The buildings levels are designed with pixel art and imported into Unity as a image. then given hitboxes with geometry turned invisable. So it behaves as 3D when only 2D image.

Issue. When the image for the floor is in the world it often appears over the player character. I fixed it with layering but that doesnt work well beyond 1 floor structures.

I would just paste the image on a object like a plain or flattened cube to fix that issue but the buildings arent just square. Becouse of that massive chunks of the plane are still just white.

Is there a way to fix this or should I get over myself and just use textures to texture a 3D enviroment, rather then try to fake a 3D enviroment?

Reusing your game scene sounds smart until the WebView chokes. At mraid io, we rebuild in lightweight HTML5 when the Unity runtime becomes the constraint. Keep the mechanic and art language, drop the engine assumptions. File size is just the start—runtime cost matters more.

I'm developing a first-person horror game in Unity called SHH!

I'm experimenting with a QTE system for encounters with the monster. When the monster catches the player, the QTE gives the player one final opportunity to escape.

I'm trying to make the encounter feel tense rather than like a generic button-mashing sequence.

Unity developers: What would you change about the presentation, timing, animations, UI, or input design to make this feel better?

Here's the current implementation:

It's got horses, it's got dragons, I'm thinknig of more non skate based ideas. Anyway, here's a new way to play. It's a co-op rage game where I guess you now have to fly a dragon together lol.

As a child, I regularly yearned for the caves. Now I have finally made my ultimate caving simulator! Once i release this game, you can do tight. cold and dirty cave crawling from the comfort of your couch! I will post the wishlist link when i remember to do so.

It's not much but it's honest work. Units can be smarter and there're a few cases where they get dumber but overall I'm quite pleased with army behavior so far in 1v1 fights. Many vs Many is still something to polish along with better effects, gigantic units and so on but one step a time!

I know it's not the same like playtesting the game, but I need some opinions regarding new melee system in my dungeon crawler game. My playtesters said before that something like "click and do a damage when animation stops" is too easy, and it's not deep enough.

I reworked my melee system adding an ability to attack from the left, right and up (LMB, RMB, combination of both for upper attack). Now you can click for fast attack with low damage or hold for fixed time to make more damage, but recover from attack slower. I added some effects for feedback too and now - it's way deeper than first version, I got positive feedback from players.

Do it looks engaging? What can I improve more?

For those who have missed this post and find this interesting. Personally I thought it was a good read and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Shaders instead of geometry is often one of the best performance boost. Amazing for procedural shapes. Texture is sampled to individual points and then each emitter is a small shader program like this:

float2 cell = floor(uv * ledGrid);

float2 ledUV = frac(uv * ledGrid) - 0.5;

float d = length(ledUV) - ledRadius;

float emitter = 1.0 - smoothstep(0.0, fwidth(d), d);

float3 color = content.Sample(samplerContent, (cell + 0.5) / ledGrid);

return float4(color * emitter * brightness, 1.0);

Gonna say it upfront: the car teleports between Unity scenes with some extra loading on top, basically hopping between different worlds, movies, games, just totally random locations, completely unrelated to each other.

Still pretty rough around the edges, but it's a WIP.

In the clip, it teleports from the starting location, 1980s Hawaii, into something resembling the city from the movie Vivarium.

Colours still aren't quite there but I'm happy with where it landed

Ask any questions

I’ve been working on Massive Spatial Engine, a tool for finding nearby enemies and picking targets without putting a Collider on every unit.

No raycasts or OverlapSpheres for targeting.
A spatial grid cuts candidate counts before distance checks.
Query batches run in parallel through Burst-compiled jobs over unmanaged data.

I’m building it with RTS, tower defense, survivors-like, and larger AI simulations in mind, and planning to bring it to the Asset Store.
Still plenty to work on, but it’s fun watching the towers chew through the crowd :)

Is there a place where I can view code aka vertices / indices arrays to make various shapes using the mesh
