Honest YouTube Asset Reviews

Edit:
This crazy Unity Sale is going to destroy my bank account. http://www.bit.ly/messysales

Hi All,

I have just started a new little series of videos where I check out different Unity3D Assets.

This started because I found myself buying assets which would turn out to be a bit disapointing or not as pretty as the screenshots show them to be. Other assets I found were not getting the praise or publicity I felt they deserved. So here is my little series, hopefully it will get bigger over time.

The videos will be a mix of assets that I have spent my money on and some that are provided for review. However both would get the same treatment, no favouritsm here. While I try actively to support indie developers, I do give my true opinion now matter how blunt (eeeerm non suger coated) it may be. So I would like to apologise in advance if anyone is offended or upset by any of the reviews or the scores they get.

These are just my opinions and maybe help some people out there. To be fair I try to score out of 5 but the top 5 mark is something that has to be really special.
A score of 2.5 is what I would call a decent score for a middle of the road asset, nothing really amazing or special but doesnt do anything really badly either.

Each has a shameless link to the asset store. I havnt posted their scores below, otherwise kind of defeats the purpose of watching the video.

To try and make a few pennies I have got an affiliate link. If you want to support the channel, just use my affiliate code when visiting the asset store and when viewing something to buy. Thanks

Nice work - and I like your rating system as well. Don’t change it even if you get complaints from asset developers.

7. Unity FPS Kit Face Off! FPS Shooter Review
► FPS Shooter Kit : http://bit.ly/mxfpss

A late arrival to the FPS Face Off, it is the FPS Shooter kit from Maksim Bugrimov. You could say this is less of a FPS Kit and more of a collection of artwork, but it calls itself an FPS Shooter Kit so its going to be included in the face off!!!

The default demo scene starts out dark unless you generate the lighting again.
Check out about 14 minutes in to the video which shows the difference between the dark and lighter scene.

Congrats! Where in the world did you get the stuff for that environment? And love the idea of a Horse Animset + Ultimate Survival tut video. Been rebuilding my project and syncing with git after a couple of system crashes, but will be digging into your videos again soon. Been missing the Ultimate Survival ones… :stuck_out_tongue:

Keep up the awesome work!

You mean you can’t do 2 or 3 a day? :stuck_out_tongue:

Just giving you a hard time… heheh Reviews are easier to do… Maybe 1 tut vid per 2-3 reviews or something like that would probably be good. Enjoying your review videos too. Looking forward to the next one since it looks like an asset I don’t own. :slight_smile:
