Ultimate 2D Parallax Manager

Overview

The 2D Parallax Manager is a Unity tool designed to create dynamic parallax scrolling effects in a 2D environment with a perspective camera setup. It manages the movement of background layers at varying speeds relative to the camera's motion, giving a sense of depth and immersion. The manager allows developers to easily configure multiple layers, adjusting their parallax intensity, speed, and direction. It's optimized for both horizontal and vertical scrolling, ensuring smooth performance and seamless integration into 2D games. This system is essential for creating visually rich scenes with realistic depth perception.

Features 🔥

• Multi-Layer Support: Easily manage multiple background layers, each with its own parallax settings.
• Customizable Parallax Speed: Adjust the speed of each layer independently to create depth and varying motion.
• Horizontal and Vertical Scrolling: Supports both X and Y axis movement for dynamic parallax effects in any direction.
• Orthographic Camera Compatibility: Works seamlessly with orthographic cameras for different 2D setups.
• Cinemachine Integration: Fully compatible with Unity’s Cinemachine, allowing advanced camera control with parallax effects.
• Custom Inspector: Includes a custom inspector for quick and intuitive setup, allowing fast adjustments and real-time changes.
• Easy Setup: Drag-and-drop functionality to add layers and configure parameters without complex scripting.
• Optimized Performance: Efficient calculations to ensure smooth performance across all platforms, including mobile and low-end devices.
• Offset and Scale Control: Fine-tune the offset and scaling of layers to fit various camera distances and scene dimensions.
• Have 5 examples art scrolling layers

How to use 🧠

• Right-click in the Inspector: In your scene, right-click in the Inspector window.
• Create Parallax Manager: Select Parallax => Create Parallax Manager. The manager will be added to your scene.
• Add Layers: You can now add your layers (sprites, particle systems, or any object with a renderer) to the Planes slot in the manager.
• Fast Setup: For a faster setup, group all your planes under a parent object. The manager will automatically extract the planes.
• Configure Planes: Use the Planes tab to configure each plane, including how far the plane should be from the camera, sorting layer ID, and other settings.
• Sort Planes: After configuring, simply click the Sort button to finalize the setup.

That's it! Your parallax effect is ready to go.
