Line Kit or Flat Kit?

Line Kit is a successor of Flat Kit asset. Flat Kit alone is deeply powerful, Flat Kit can create the outlines for the most of user cases, and it is beginner friendly, it is the Mercedes of outlines. But Line Kit is the royal’s family Rolls Royce. If you are new to line rendering, we recommend you to start with Flat Kit. If you are looking for the most profound outline solution, Line Kit is for you.

Being interested Moebius art we’ve been building upon Flat Kit’s foundation for years, starting with Soundmarine through Spårvagn. We could experiment, develop and improve things without need to keep the asset user friendly — as the set-up was not trivial and not ready for the Asset Store. We kept it for our own projects because we believe it is too good to be shared for money. Line Kit is the result of our efforts to make the most advanced line rendering solution in Unity. We are proud of it the most.
