Introduction to the Multiplayer Top-Down Shooter Template (Netcode, Lobby, Relay) v1.1.1 (22 Nov 2025)
The Multiplayer Top-Down Shooter Template v1.1.1 is a fully developed, production-ready resource pack designed for Unity, featuring robust multiplayer functionality and seamless integration of core networking components. It supports up to 4 players in both public and private game sessions, with private sessions secured via access codes. Players can customize their names and colors, and the system allows dynamic selection of server regions with auto-updates every 24 hours.
The template includes three primary weapons—Pistol, Rifle, and Shotgun—and four power-ups: Speed, Fire Rate, Accuracy, and Medkit. Weapons and power-ups can be obtained through drops during gameplay, and AI opponents are equipped with basic battle logic, including the ability to pick up drops and use weapons. A simple in-game rating system tracks player performance.
All game settings are preserved across sessions and are stored in the boot scene, allowing for easy configuration. The template is fully commented, making it accessible for developers and technical artists. It is optimized for mobile platforms and includes support for Unity 2022.3.7f1 and later versions. Required dependencies include Lobby 1.2.1, Netcode for GameObjects 1.9.1, Relay 1.1.1, and Input System 1.6.3. Note that after installing Input System, the Unity Editor may require manual re-importing of the package if restarted. WebGL is not supported.
