Unity

For anyone that has tried the 1.0 release of entities what do you think of it?

I plan on making a small test project with it soon and comparing it to Bevy.

I tried the 0.17 version a while ago, and I remember the API was a huge mess. I'm sure things could only get better from there.

The whole idea of interfaces finally clicked and I'm starting to see how useful they are for introducing possibilities of emergent gameplay. I might be addicted.

Oh yeah, and hi - just found this place. Looks pretty cool so far. (RIP RIF)

I never seem to have enough Unity Guides to follow, what are some of your favorite Youtubers when it comes to Unity Guides and information?

Mix and Jam One of my favorites.

I’ve been down a small rabbit hole recently into WFC as a procedural generation tool and i’m super excited to find a unity asset that i can’t wait to get the opportunity to play with.

This was the youtube video that got me started - have fun!

link to the asset (there’s a more expensive paid version with more features but the cheap one still has a lot going for it): https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/level-design/tessera-procedural-tile-based-generator-155425#description
