Also makes any textures used by the URP post processing 32x32 to make them as small as possible. This saves around 3-4 mb's for my test project. Your mileage may vary.

URP-PSX - Playstation 1 era retro graphics plugin optimized for Unity's Universal Rendering Pipeline with Shadergraph. The aim of this plugin was to use Unity's new pipeline to create NPR (non-photorealistic) PSX-style retro graphics with the shadergraph as the basis for materials and URP's render features as the basis for post processing effects.

More Effective Coroutines [PRO] - More Effective Coroutines. 50% Off Sale!
(MEC) is an improved implementation of coroutines. When you use Unity's built-in default coroutines you will have to be very careful about how you use them or else they will allocate memory that the garbage collector later has to clean up. This can cause your app to randomly skip frames. MEC solves that issue for coroutines, while also making coroutines more powerful by running about twice as fast as Unity's default coroutines do and providing you with a host of new options that Unity's default coroutines don't have.

Little Racer - It all started when we were just kids playing slot cars toys, do you know those? Toys for which you had to build a track yourself and then simply put them on it, and race with your friends just by pressing a button! That’s what Little Racer is all about, to bring joy from our childhood times for everyone! We decided to release our game on Nintendo Switch, as joy-cons and console itself suit the game perfectly.

Little Racer is ‘90s slot cars back in retro style! Be the first one to complete seven laps. Avoid obstacles, overtake your opponents and be careful on turns so you don’t fall off the track! You only need two buttons – one to accelerate and one to change lanes. Enjoy the race with up to 4 friends or AI opponents. Unlock new cars, worlds and tracks in the campaign mode or compete in the Challenge Mode. Create new levels in the level editor. And most of all – enjoy the ride!
