The asset is not user friendly and just everything put together and the input system is not implemented like it should and has problems. When asked for help from discord, I got the cliche "it works on my machine!" Response to reply: NO, I did not get any solutions from you.. I had to figure out myself that the new input system only would not work since the bindings of keys were not implemented.

The pathfinding system documentation is really bad, you cannot set the pathfinding system with it. I tried using AIFSM and Aitree but none gives you any way to add the pathfinding node. I can set the pathfinding map but that is all then the ai agents do nothing as can't add a pathfinding node as mentions the documentation. If there is any way is zero intuitive and documentation is wrong. In general is a package where you will have to invest lot of time to learn it. It offer what you see in the video but if you try to add something else you will need to spend lot of time trying to understand and modify the system. You can buy things from a vendor and the items go to your equipment, but there is not option to actually equip those items in another UI where you can show the weapons, armor, helmet, etc.. that the character has equipped, you just easily make the character equips the item but is not so easy to show it in the UI and be able to drag items from the UI with equipped items and the inventory. Also about the support i got some help but could be more helpful, the replies use to be not good. After making this review i didn't get any more help. So can be good just if want to use if exactly for what the video shows if don't want to get stuck, if not i would just have made everything myself. Actually to understand everything takes a lot of time anyways. Also the text in the dialogues you can't translate them to several languages EDIT : keyboard and mouse don't work with the new input system. I am trying to click the moving cursor in the dialogue with the merchant and doesn't work. The keyboard was easy to fix, just had to add the missing bindings. And if you try to search in the code is all overcomplicated with tons of events that you get lost very easily. I wouldn't have used this asset if I knew all this, is a lot of work all the time, it is not worth unless you plan to make something exactly as the asset. You will need also someone that makes you all the animations required for this asset. I tried to use just another package that had not all the animations required for this asset and for instance the climb wall animation even though i removed that animation it triggered the one of this asset anyways, didn't allow me to just not use it

A very good and powerful resource. If there’s something you don’t understand, you can ask on Discord and quickly get support from the developers. The only thing that feels a bit inconvenient at the moment is that some features are controlled through gizmo drawings, which makes it impossible to adjust them precisely by entering values. In addition, some methods and functions cannot be copied and pasted (though it might just be that I haven’t figured it out yet).

The great asset for making a 2D platformer game. So many features and 2d physics are included in this engine.

Very nice asset! Also i was lost and couldn't find something to assign to an animation. I asked for help, and it didn't take even 5 minutes for him to help me solve it. Thanks my brother.

I've been searching for a way to develop a game idea i've had for the longest time, but I didn't want to spend months slowly building every system from scratch. Flare engine gave me a rock solid foundation and let me focus on what matters most to me, the World design, sound, music and overall feel, without the usual headaches I get from programming everything myself. This is beautifully crafted and well put together, and easy to pick up. The documentation is super detailed, some small things are missing from it but I managed to figure it out with a bit of common sense! I heard that the developer is pretty active in the community and to me that seems they clearly care. I purchased this with high anxiety hoping that it wouldn't just be an asset bought and put on the shelf, but fixing a few errors to migrate to unity 6 and a few hours playing around with Flare engine and I think I have found an actual gem. If you want to dive into make your dream Metroidvania (and probably other genres) This engine is an absolute gift. Highly recommended!

1. Ask about why there is compilation errors in unity 6 2. Get met by passive aggressive message explaining I have to modify the code to fix it 3. Followed by insults after mentioning this should be fixed by them, not by me. Recommend to stay away.

as title.

I tried to use this engine. There are few tutorials, not enough. This engine have great QoL like with the SpriteEngine, but i gave up and use my own movement, camera and animations. I can't recommended it. Use it on your own risk

It can be used with 2D games very well, but it requires a fairly complex learning curve. It can be used with 2.5D games, but it may not be perfect. The system covers almost all aspects of 2D game creation, including menus, worlds, UI systems, inventory systems, and controllers for mobile devices.
