๐Ÿ–‹๏ธPlease note that the asset uses a non-standard license! Previously it was per-seat, but it didn't help neither students, indies that didn't sign with publishers yet, and bigger teams with only a few developers per game but still inside a bigger entity. Now we grow as you grow, you pay only once - no matter the size of your team - and can use that version forever in any game (protected from retroactive changes as well). Read more here and let us know what you think!

Just curious why this version doesnโ€™t get updates?

Hi there!! It's planned, the reason why it's blocked is that we need to synchronise our upload pipeline with the new releases etc. - we thought it wouldn't take much but then it got stuck in between tasks (and Holidays too). Working on it! (also on our own store etc., lot of things to think about with multi distribution and different licenses.)

In case we won't be able to do so soon, I'll try to do it manually. Cheers! ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป

Hey dude, was looking at picking up this asset but both the Documentation & Limitation pages seem to return a 404? Is there anywhere I can access this information that's still supported? Thanks!

Nvm I was able to find these pages by manually searching the root of your website. I look forward to giving this package a go!

Sorry for the late reply, for some reason I didn't get the notification of this post - thank you for telling me! I have updated the links on the page.
Enjoy the asset! I'm always available in case you need any help with it too. Cheers!
