Price History +

With Linework Lite you can easily render outlines and fill effects.

5+ years in the making, Linework is the culmination of years of experimentation that I have done with outline rendering in Unity. Made with love ❤️.

✅ Performant.

Leveraging the power of the SRP batcher and the Unity 6 Render Graph, Linework is able to render multiple outlines within a single batch.


✅ Easy to use.

A considerable amount of development time has gone into finetuning the user experience for Linework so that it is as user-friendly as possible while still being flexible.
