[@Lazzarus7]

I'm really happy to see Unity recognized your talent and sponsered your video. I said it before and I say it again, this channel is really underrated. Great content as usual, keep it up!

[@sasquatchbgames]

Much appreciated! :)

[@MikeCore]

It's so nice when you see an asset, go "oooo, I'ma check that out" and realize you already own it

[@endyproductions6209]

Congratulations on getting sponsored by unity

[@sasquatchbgames]

Thanks!

[@endyproductions6209]

Wow I did not expect you to reply, I just know that you will one day be the next indie great! Good luck 👍

[@curlus]

I picked up Top Down Engine in a bundle and started using it back in May. So far, it's fantastic. It has just about everything you need for starting a top-down style game. The documentation is good and the developer responds quickly in both the Unity Forum thread and in Discord. I can't recommend TDE highly enough for anyone starting a top-down style game.

[@allancarter]

I can't say enough good things about More Mountains. I use the corgi engine, and I have learned so much from their code. I think its great even if yoy don't know how to code. They are also very responsive on their discord, and if you are a coder, they will give you tips on modifying the eninge to fit your needs.

[@Luis-Torres]

1000% getting at least half of these assets. They look really good

[@scolondev]

Will there be an option to toggle off or tone down the player hit effects and screen flash/pulsing effects in general? It seems a bit excessive and will definitely hurt a lot of peoples' eyes after a while.

[@sasquatchbgames]

Yep for sure. I tend to go a bit strong with effects like that.

[@Mcjagger2023]

the constant flashing white really hurt my eyes :(

[@MiniatureGiantsGameDev]

This was a truly useful and informative video - thanks for that! So many packages I didnt know existed that I can keep an eye out for for my own games!

[@sasquatchbgames]

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@StealthyShiroeanGames]

Thanks for sharing these! All of these sound great and I've added them all to my favorites list on Unity! Will definitely need to think about picking some up in the future.

[@pitchfire7959]

I love the destructible 2D asset! I pretty much try and use it in all my games.

[@HE360]

That looks like a cool game you're making.

[@nathanhajek9039]

Thanks so much! I nearly bought Feel this morning, kicking myself for not grabbing it during the last sale. Two. More. Days...

[@orpheuscreativeco9236]

This is useful insight 👍 Some days i work for 12 hours on my game and coding and forget to stop and take time for myself. I guess its better to treat this game dev journey as a marathon, not a sprint. ✌️😌

[@kpickett9128]

great recs! just got the a* pathfinder project asset as well and super excited to dig into it, it looks fantastic!

[@bananapeelonhead]

Game's looking super juicy! The white flash when you hit enemies might be a bit too much? What do you think?

[@sasquatchbgames]

I'm thinking of adding a slider (or a toggle, one or the other) that will make it adjustable. I like LOTS of juice, but I know it might be a bit much for some people

[@Fitz0fury]

Great list. actually had almost all of the assets i wanted in my next purchase. thanks. making sure to buy with your link :)

[@sasquatchbgames]

Awesome, thank you!

[@totallyTimmy]

I really wish there was some way to try these assets before buying. Animancer lite is a good example. If you aren't already making money with unity, then some of the asking prices seem prohibitively steep.

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

Really helpful video with tons of great assets, definitely getting some of those, thanks!

[@sasquatchbgames]

Glad you liked it! 😀

[@CodeRadGames]

Thanks for this list. Im definitly getting text animator once its on sale!

[@WhimzyInteractive]

I think you guys mean to implement this later but you need more environment art or just visual stimulation in the core loop

[@sasquatchbgames]

Absolutely, lots of additional art will be added. :)

[@Dominicn123]

ifreaking love unity assets man, so many amazing, incredible and really fun ones out there made to improve all our projects lol people often are afraid to use assets because other lame snobby people make them feel bad for using assets for literally NO reason so many avoid it to only have absoluitely lazy effects and amature results when they could've spruced it up with a few nice assets to help them in the beggining, they should be something you encourgae man! heelp out those indie devs making assets to make things easier for the rest of us lol

[@alaslipknot]

fun-fact: the creators of "Feel" and "top down engine" work full time making prototypes for Ubisoft mobile games.

[@midniteoilsoftware]

Some really cool assets. I'm happy to find I own most of them already.

[@vladoz9299]

Nice collection of assets!

[@_dimitrisbr]

great video and a lot of nice assets!!!

[@LuizMoratelli]

If someone is looking for devkit to develop a card game i cannot recommend other than TCG Engine, the code is awesome made and modular enough to build any CCG on top of it.

[@halivudestevez2]

Note, just found for A*: "As of January 2024, the price of this package, which has remained at $100 for over a decade of continual development, will be adjusted to $140. "

[@MarioDoodles]

No idea how u get this power to make ur content and videos 😅😊

[@branidev]

I build my steam game using Destructible 2D and i have fully destructible environment like in worms so good but that way only the beginning it speed up the process a lot but still i spend 2 years on that game...

[@bluzenkk]

is there any new good assets you can recommend? i've already purchased the ones u mentioned in the past store deals. i agree these asset are very useful, hence i think most dev have gotten them long long ago....

[@MrKovet]

try making a feel tutorial. goated asset imo
