About this asset

Instant Scene Switcher - Stop wasting time hunting for scenes. This free Unity Editor tool puts a scene selector dropdown directly in your Unity toolbar, letting you jump between scenes in a single click - no menus, no Project window digging, no interruptions to your flow.

Switch scenes instantly from the toolbar dropdown, or hit Ctrl+Alt+S anywhere in the Editor to open a compact quick-switch popup. Navigate with arrow keys and press Enter to load — all without touching your mouse.

Organize your scenes into custom presets tailored to your workflow. Working on a specific feature? Create a preset with only the scenes you need.

The built-in Build Settings preset automatically mirrors your enabled build scenes, so you always have the right set ready.

Drag and drop scenes directly into any preset, reorder them in seconds, and apply presets with one click. The toolbar dropdown updates instantly to reflect whatever preset is active.

Key Features:

  • Toolbar scene dropdown - always visible, zero clicks to reach
  • Ctrl+Alt+S quick-switch popup with keyboard navigation
  • Custom named scene presets
  • Easy Scene management
  • No runtime overhead - Editor only
