READ BEFORE PURCHASING
The kit only supports the High Definition Render Pipeline.
The original retro graphics from Retro Mech Simulator are not included.
Retro Mech Simulator HD was developed and tested on an RTX 2070 Super. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and screen resolution.
This is not a AAA production, so don’t expect AAA graphics.
The included sound effects are low-fidelity effects from the original Retro Mech Simulator.
This kit does everything possible to simplify the task of building your game, but it is a large and complex kit best suited to small teams with intermediate to advanced skills in Unity.
This kit is designed specifically for making single-player games. To be clear, this kit will never have built-in multiplayer support.
