Testing Unity’s Experimental Graph Toolkit: A Custom State Machine - Graph Toolkit is Unity’s new experimental framework for building custom graph-based editors — and in this video, I put it to the test by building a working state machine, from editor nodes to runtime execution. The toolkit doesn’t come with a built-in execution layer, so we walk through how to design your own node types, define execution flow using ports, and serialize the graph into a lightweight runtime format that drives real in-game logic. If you’ve been wondering what Graph Toolkit can actually do — or whether it’s worth your time — this is a grounded, end-to-end look at what it takes to build something functional with it.
