Community Showcases
1

I just released my Floating Combat Text asset on the Unity Asset store.

This asset allows you to quickly and easily add floating combat text to your game.

In Game Demo - See how the animated combat text works in a game.
Demo Scene - This scene is provided with the asset.
YouTube Videos - Shows the combat text in action in these two scenes and provides a tutorial video on how to integrate Floating Combat Text into your game.

Features:

  • optionally pool similar text types (Damage/Healing) to display DPS
  • uses Unity 4.6 UI components
  • uses the Mecanim Animation system to create cool effects
  • sample effects for Miss, Hit, Critical Hit, and Heal are provided along with a tutorial on how to create your own effects
  • easy to integrate!

Instructions:

  1. Drag the OverlayCanvas prefab into your scene.
  2. Drag your scene’s Main Camera into the inspector slot.
  3. Call the ShowCombatText function.
  4. Enjoy your floating combat text!

If you need any help or have an idea for a new feature, don’t hesitate to email me:

I just submitted an update to support targeting 2D objects with Floating Combat Text. Hopefully that will get approved in the next day or two.

I’ve also received a lot of great e-mails about the asset, and I’ve helped people modify the code to suit their needs.

Currently there is no VR support, but I have worked with two different customers to get it working in their projects.

Would be interesting to see this include images, so for instance background image behind the text or beside text

Planning to make it works with 2018.3 ?
