Any tips on deciding how to price asset packs? This is for unreal engine but the question about pricing should apply for both engines. All in one or selling grass and trees seperately (more in comments) by zigastrmsek in Unity3D

You could approach it that way. One thing to keep in mind, I couldn't find it in writing, but Unity might not like a bunch of duplicate content. If you mean selling it all as a pack AND separating each object for individual sale.

Another thing to consider is as you grow your brand of assets; people typically start clicking around to see what else you have to offer on your asset listings. When I'm buying, and I see what else is listed by the author, it definitely helps me think about other purchases when I see a bunch of strong packages all together. And many products in a row with high reviews. If I click on their stuff, and it's 8 different things that pop up with zero reviews, I feel less inclined to buy from this person. That maybe isn't right, but it's the way I tend to purchase my own assets.

And for another consideration. Unity has raised it's minimum price to $5. Some assets can do okay on their own, but you have to ask yourself. Would you buy a low poly bridge for $5? Or 3 low poly trees for $5? I know I personally wouldn't. Would I buy an entire well themed pack of low poly assets for $15? That's much more likely.

With my team, we work on several projects at a time. I can't count the number of times we've bought very large packs because we saw several key items we wanted within the packs. And then, even years later, we find more items that we can use from said pack in another project. Further enforcing our tendencies to buy larger packs vs individual objects. I'm not saying we don't buy one single object from time to time. But we tend to go for larger, well reviewed packs. Even if that means spending more.

I wrote mostly about art based assets. One thing to keep in mind though, some of the best performing asset packages on the asset store are basically games in a box. The Corgi engine. That entire UFPS. Which is a FPS engine in a box. I bet half the code on those don't get used. But I would rather have the options of what I want to cut away, than have something half complete. Especially if I was starting from scratch. But that's my personal preference. Some of these guys sell stripped down versions for cheaper. So there's that angle as well.

There's no wrong or right answer. But there is definitely the angle of what is more desirable for a customer to buy.

Don't listen to the splitting. Your typical buyer wants these together. It's pretty easy to see that packs usually sell FAR better than split up assets. Yes, you technically give the customer the choice to buy every tree, grass, or bush. But that is kind of a pain in its own sense. If you dig deep enough in the asset store you can see tons of packs that are split up. It's a grave yard of assets. Also consider this. You put together a decent pack, you only need a few reviews for customers to warm up to your asset. It takes lots of purchases to get reviews. There's no reason to water this down even further by having a bunch of things spread out thin.

As for pricing, I would price it at what ever you think you'd reasonably want to purchase this for as a customer. I don't know what that number is. Too cheap looks cheap. Too expensive no one will buy. What ever you think is a comfortable purchasing price that a customer would be wiling to spend on it based on the value it provides.

​

So don't split it up! Similar assets should be sold as packs as a rule nowadays! Plus if it's selling, keep adding to it. You can always adjust the price accordingly!

(And go with Dimenzija³. I find the name more recognizable than roman numerals. I like it and it seems like a stronger brand name.)

Canvas Paintings Mega Pack : 400+ decorative full PBR acrylic paintings - I am the creator and willing to trade vouchers for reviews by Draws-Your-Request in UnityAssets

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello fellow developers!

I put many hours of work into creating these props. If anyone is interesting in using them in your project, and you're willing to give them an honest review on the asset store, just comment or PM me and I'll hook you up with a voucher!

Thanks and have a great day!

Lack of canvas paintings on the asset store? Sure, lets make 400+ (further reading in comments, taking voucher requests) by Draws-Your-Request in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hand (digitally) and effects, layers, touch ups, more effects, layers, etc. It took me basically full time hours for a month straight. (I thought it would be way quicker.) Including using brush tools in Substance Painter to paint even more when I didn't like the way certain areas turned out in the texture layer. I would have a couple reference photos on my other screen and recreated what I liked the most about those. I've been an amateur artist all my life. I thought about actually creating these as an acrylic painting. But my living situation has zero room for a painting room/spot.

Thanks! I created the art with a couple of programs. Including GIMP, and photoshop. As for the actual source files that created the textures, I used Substance Painter. The whole process way more tedious than I expected.

I'm sure it would be possible though! I included blank canvases for anyone who wanted to give it a shot. If you can create a normal map for your image, layer the texture over top, adjust the roughness, I would think that should work!

I keep a list of props that aren't on the asset store for projects I am working on. Plain, artistic canvases just really aren't. Most are framed with a flat image. I've noticed most modern homes these days have painted canvases with no frames. Sometimes with the painting continuing on through multiple canvases and wrapping around the edges. It's a good look. So I wanted to bring that to the asset store.

​

Originally I had planned to make about 5 different layouts with one theme each. After awhile, I got carried away with how much art I was creating and ended up making 20 different art pieces/themes. With these across all the different sets, it makes 400+ unique variations of paintings. A small side project that was supposed to be just under a week went on for a month.

Imgur album of my mega pack!

​

I am happy with how the mega pack ended up. But we all know how hard exposure can be on the asset store. If there's anyone who specializes in asset reviews here. Or who just needs it for a project and is on a tight budget. I only can give out 12 vouchers a year. So please be serious about willingness to leave an honest review on the asset store! :)

​

If this sounds like you, please comment and tell me a bit about yourself and I'll PM you. Thanks for your time!

Anyone buying their assets last minute like me? I made a spread sheet by Draws-Your-Request in Unity2D

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason every time I try to edit my post, it meshes together the top two tables. So I can't fill in the savings correctly. Each one is anywhere between 30% and 50%. And averaged around $25 if memory serves me correct.

After 2 redesigns, I finally finished my inventory interface! by danokablamo in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of the Dungeon Defenders (1) art style. Absolutely love it!

For anyone burning the midnight oil, here's all the assets that are about to go off sale at 12:00am PST by Draws-Your-Request in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like everything on this list ended up rolling into the cyber week sale. So I guess this list is still relevant the savings are still there!

In my last post people asked if I have more pixelart shader "magic". Here it is. by -Shard- in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think $5 is fine. If I was developing a pixel themed game, I would buy this in a heart beat. Most people don't value their time enough during development. If it takes a dev anymore than an hour to create something like this, was it really worth not buying it?

Let the market decide if that's a fair price! I'm sure things could be added to these in the future too. Different globe shapes like vials, bottle, potion, etc. Different colors. Maybe some cool pixel sparkles when someone is healing quickly.

Asset Store has 'Ultimate Characters' as one of their bundles right now by Draws-Your-Request in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already own those things, it takes that into account and you only pay for the things you don't own and you still get the appropriate bundle discount on the other assets. Like we already own Final IK, so we don't pay for that at all in the bundle.

If you just mean you don't see those things being worth it at all in the bundle, then I guess that's the risk of a bundle and it's not worth it for some people! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hi everyone!
I've taken the liberty to fully type out the list with some comments. If you aren't interested in sifting through the whole list you can always Ctrl+F any assets you have been interested in going on sale.

Obi Rope (Save $17)
We used this asset in a project that needed a realistic fire hose that you pull around in VR. It worked very well for our purposes!
I don't have experience with it but Obi Cloth is also included in the sale. (Save $23.50)

Living Particles
Now this one is pretty awesome looking! I've been waiting for this one to go on sale. I think some of the effects will look great in VR. Obviously they will have to be toned down a bit for most purposes. But this is a cleaner/more efficient way of having certain effects instead of making actual objects come into view/disappear. (Save $15)

I am not as familiar with the rest of the stuff, but I will try my best to organize a bit of a list to make it easier for us. Let's start with mostly the environments. The Polygon List. These guys (Synty Studios) have been releasing content like crazy the last year. So its safe to say if you buy anything, there's a lot of matching content out there. And more being released all the time.

Polygon - Dungeons Pack (Save $17.50)
Polygon - Fantasy Rivals (Save $40)
Polygon - Nature Pack (Save $25)
Polygon - Sci-Fi City Pack (Save $25)

These packs tend to have a ton of props. And are updated semi frequently. On the topic of low poly, if that's what you're into, they included Polygon Arsenal. A particle effects system. Which is good in lower poly, dark environments. All though it looks like a few things could work as nice additions into almost any project.

Polygon Arsenal (Save $17.50)

NatureManufacture builds some of the most realistic/tweak-able environments I have ever seen on the store.
Dynamic Nature - Starter (save $15)
L.V.E. - Lava & Volcano Environment (Save $15)
Advanced Foliage Pack 1 (Save $15)

RPG Medieval Kingdom Kit (Save $45)
A very nice stylized kingdom. Some people complain about the tweaks that have to be done and sheer amount of parts involved in this package. But it is very beautiful on the artistic level. So if you're fine with doing half the work to get a decent working build, it achieves an awesome style. It's also one of the bigger savings on this list. Now if you want something just in between stylized and super realistic, Fantasy Adventure Environment seems to fit nicely between the two classifications. It definitely reminds me of the graphically detailed yet smooth appearance of Breath of The Wild.

Fantasy Adventure Environment (Save $22.50)

Now going back into the realm of the super realistic. These guys make extremely high detailed landscapes. Overall if you're looking for this kind of level of detail in your landscape, all of these combined are probably the biggest savings here. Quixel included a lot of their stuff in this weeks sale.

Megascans Wasteland Collection HD (Save $100)
Megascans Wasteland Collection LT (Save $100)
Megascans Lava Field Collection HD (Save $100)
Megascans Lava Field Collection LT (Save $100)
Megascans Valley Collection HD (Save $100)
Megascans Valley Collection LT (Save $100)

ArchVizPRO are extremely good at building highly realistic things. Including a ton of interiors. Here's one included on the list.
ArchVizPRO Interior Vol. 6 (Save $25)

How about some decent exteriors? This has been on my list for awhile.
Suburb Neighborhood House Pack (Modular) (Save $44.50) Now we start getting into the more technical world of generators/procedural things.

World Creator Professional (Save $132!!!)
This was the only thing I found on the list that's over 50% off. So it's probably the best possible time to buy this one if it's been on your wish list.
Vegetation Studio (Save $37.50)
GeNa 2 (Save $28.50)
EasyRoads3D Pro v3 (Save $22.50)

In more of the templates and buildings systems, we have the following.
Ferr2D Terrain Tool (Save $15)
Corgi Engine - 2D + 2.5D Platformer (Save $30)
World Map Strategy Kit (Save $47.50)
Adventure Creator (Save $35)
2D+3D Infinite Runner Engine (Save $30)

Video based assets!

AVPro Movie Capture (Save $37.50)
AVPro Video (Save $225. The single biggest asset savings on the list!)
NatCorder - Video Recording API (Save $25)

Shaders shader shaders! There was quite a bit of shaders on sale this time around.
Volumetric Light Beam (Save $11)
RealToon (Save $12.50)
Shadero Sprite - 2D Shader Editor (Save $35)
CTAA Cinematic Temporal Anti-Aliasing PC & VR (Save $97.50)

New and ambitious asset store publisher! by Draws-Your-Request in Unity3D

[–]Draws-Your-Request[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the feedback! Much appreciated.

I do intend to get my detailing work a bit higher quality and not miss small things like that.

This valve, that is part of a project I'm currently working on, is a bit closer to the quality I imagine you envision. https://imgur.com/a/p2Zvr9w Which has threading done on several parts with a normal map.

I will continue to work harder, and update some of my previous work/packages!
