As someone who juggles multiple Unity projects (mostly 2D casual and mobile games), I recently hit a point where rebuilding the same core systems — like menus, scene transitions, and input handling — was slowing me down more than helping me learn.
So I decided to stop reinventing the wheel and instead looked for clean starter templates. Surprisingly, I found a solid collection of free Unity source code kits on Gameosophy that cover things like:
Basic player controllers
Swipe and joystick mobile input
Health bars, coins, and UI
Game over and restart flows
These were way cleaner than what I was piecing together from random GitHub repos, and they're easy to modify. Great for solo devs or small teams working on multiple ideas.
Just thought I’d share in case anyone else is looking to speed up their prototype-to-publish pipeline. Would love to hear where others get their base templates from or if you prefer building every line from scratch.
