Monster Battle Kit is a complete turn based monster battle template for Unity 6.
Everything you need to build a creature collecting RPG in the style of the classic monster taming games: a full battle system, trainers, overworld systems and a library of battle VFX and SFX. Create your own monsters, tweak the data and make it your own.
Turn-based monster battle template: 1v1 / 1v2 / 2v2 battles, trainers, status effects, buffs and debuffs, an overworld with wild encounters with probabilities, and a plethora of VFX for every move. Reskin it and build your monster RPG.
Who this pack is for
- Creative minds who want a quick solution to start prototyping their new game into an MVP
- Talented VFX artists who wish to have a professional environment to showcase their effects and create amazing portfolio pieces

- Indie developers who want a solid base to start creating their dream game without the hassle and terror of facing a blank canvas
- SFX and producers who want a nice environment to try their new sounds or practice creating sounds for the VFX included
What this pack is not
- A production ready MMORPG template

- Enemy AI that chooses moves and targets
- Stats, levels and EXP, plus stat buffs and debuffs with their own VFX
- Expandable status effects: Burned, Venom, Frozen, Paralyzed, Asleep, Doomed, Dizzy, Glitched and Censored, each with a VFX on the monster and an icon in the HUD. Easily add your own set of rules
- Fully data-driven status effects: damage per turn, duration, skip-turn chance and recovery chance
