About this asset
The TopDown Footprint System is a plug-and-play solution to bring your 2D Top Down Games to life with reactive footprints and optional particles. Whether you're making an RPG in the snow, a stealth game on wet stone, or a fantasy adventure through muddy fields.
The asset supports both player- and NPC-based movement, uses prefabs, and integrates seamlessly via animation events or timed spawning. Footprints automatically inherit color from the ground using a layer-based priority system and can be tinted dynamically.
The included examples and a full documentation, help you get started quickly.
All demos are created with the new Input System and include a simple 2D top-down controller script.
I used the following assets for the images and video.
