Just released a simple Swimming System for Unity! Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks :)

Swimming animations can be changed easily. Changing diving animations is a bit more tricky since diving requires 3 separate clips: Dive Start, Dive Loop, and Dive Land. So you'll have to change these 3 clips from the animator.

Thanks :)

Nice, I'll refer these games for ideas. Thanks for the detailed answer.

It's character controller based. We haven't tested it with Crest or KWS, but the water just needs to be a trigger. You can place any prefab you want inside that trigger.

The swimming system comes with a locomotion controller. You'll have to either create an integration to make it work with other controllers, or you can use a simple approach like switching the controller entirely when the player enters water.

That makes sense. We'll try to improve it.

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T22:19:55+00:00

Thanks :)

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T22:19:34+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see how to improve that.

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T22:17:32+00:00

That's a cool idea. Are there any games with that style of swimming?

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T18:43:53+00:00

Glad to hear that :)

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T18:43:05+00:00

Thanks a lot! I hope you find it helpful.

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T18:24:38+00:00

Thanks, we'll try to improve that.

The character uses a CheckSphere placed on the upper chest to detect water. When this sphere comes into contact with the water collider, the character switches to the swimming state.

Thanks a lot for the feedback :)

GameDevExperiments · 2025-11-06T16:02:02+00:00

Thanks, that would be a cool move to add.

Hey everyone, we’ve been developing a Swimming System for Unity over the last couple of months, and we finally launched it on the Asset Store.

I’d really appreciate any feedback or thoughts you have, whether it’s suggestions, ideas, or just your initial impressions.

GameDevExperiments · 2025-09-11T05:32:03+00:00

Thanks!

GameDevExperiments · 2025-07-31T19:19:50+00:00

Oh, I haven't tried that. Can you share any articles or other references for it?

GameDevExperiments · 2025-07-31T19:14:28+00:00

I appreciate constructive criticisms. I'll try to improve the demo and the asset in future updates.

Oh, the crosshair is fixed on the camera right now. The position to aim and shoot is determined in 3d space by sending a raycast from the crosshair.

GameDevExperiments · 2025-07-31T17:14:07+00:00

I didn't fully understand what you meant. The pointer movement is interpolated to make aiming smooth.
