2d night

Unity Engine
1

Hi guys
I am making a 2d game and I faced a little problem. When I was making one of my 3d games and wanted to make the night effect, I had just modified the ambiental color or light, I am not sure how it is named. Anyway, Now I want to do the same thing with a 2d game… but I won’t work. Any ideas ? I would want not to be able to see anything, and then add a light to my player. Ideas ?

make material sprites/diffuse, add this material in sprite renderer. And then just add light.

3

it doesn’t work man. I have a png with a pixel art player. If I make it diffuse, it makes it a green square. What’s to do ?

4

do you make it just diffuse or you have created new material sprites/diffuse ? Right click in folder in assets, create → material and set it to sprites/diffuse.

I ve done it man :)). It wouldn’t work :frowning:

try run 2d file in assets
