Super Virtual Joysticks – Dual On-Screen Joystick System for Unity

This asset is provided as a starter template.

It includes core systems, example gameplay, and a clean project structure intended to help developers prototype faster and build their own games.

This package is not a finished or content-complete game.
Users are expected to:

• Modify visuals, gameplay rules, and balance
• Add additional features, polish, and content
• Adapt the template to their own design goals

If you are looking for a ready-to-publish game with final art, progression systems, monetization, or full content, this package may not be suitable.

If you want a clear, extendable starting point that saves development time and encourages customization, this template is built for that purpose.
