How to load and run starter projects from the asset store

I purchased a starter project from the asset store (Match 3 Starter Project). The only option on the asset store page is “Open in Unity”. When I click on that I get an empty dialog to either load an existing project or create a new one. I thought this -was- an entire project on its own, so loading existing or creating new doesn’t make a lot of sense.

In any event, since it seems to be my only hope, I did the “Create new” 2D project and then imported the starter project. When click Play, however, I just get a blue-colored screen. Perhaps I do not have the correct package references in the create project dialog, but how would I know?

I can write a shader in assembly but can’t load a Unity starter project. Something’s wrong in the world…

In any event, could someone let me know what the correct way to do this seemingly obvious thing is?

Thanks!

Have you tried loading the included Unity scenes in the project?

  1. Create new project.
  2. Import desired package.
  3. Load desired scene.
