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

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!!!

* Realistic FPS Prefab from Azuline Studios - http://bit.ly/rfpsprefab

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..

Keep up the awesome work!

 

Thanks mate.

The scene is a sneak peak from another review I am doing.

Lol I did a ultimate Survival video last week

I will try to keep 1 tutorial a week and 1 review a week.

 

You mean you can't do 2 or 3 a day?

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.

 

Ok I did 1 tutorial now time for next review. It's a going to be the Arctic Castle pack.

 

How many unity assets do you have in your queue for review or tutorials?

 

Dude if I answered that, my wife would kill me......

 

Here you all are, I have fallen in love

Unity Asset Review - Animal Pack Deluxe [Crazy Sale]

http://bit.ly/jpanimals

 

Hi Everyone,

I cannot understand how TurboSquid are able to sell so many identical assets on the asset store, this cannot be a good thing for anyone other than TurboSquid and Unity in the short term only.
As a long term TurboSquid user I am disgusted, I honestly expected better from Unity to protect the integrity of the asset store and protect their customers!

I am doing a 1 man boycott of TurboSquid on the asset store. #SayNoToTurbo

 

Developers will see the quality and lack of conformity to game-resolution and pass on all these assets hopefully.

Also worth noting Turbo Squid takes upwards of 60% of developer earnings from sales on there site. Consider researching if a model is located in other stores before purchasing from them in the future. They are not asset provider friendly.

 

May Madness is here (http://bit.ly/unitymaymadness) I am going to try and do a video a day or as much as I can until I burn out.
