I wish Paper2D didn’t die… but now that I am more heavy in VR dev…I am noticing a trend… VR (Vive at least) problems all over that haven’t been fixed yet, even though there have been fixes made by the community. Motion Controller replication??? Year later…
Anyway. I love 2D stuff, I had to use Unity for a school project because UE4’s 2D engine wasn’t up to snuff. TBH, Game Maker Studio 2 is your best bet for 2D dev work.
Mr Noland is way too busy with other projects.
