About Simple Attribute Forge

Thank you for taking the time to visit this section to learn more about the package and the developer behind it.

What is Simple Attribute Forge?

Simple Attribute Forge is a Unity editor based wizard tool designed to eliminate the tedious boilerplate code that comes with creating RPG and a lot of other game attribute systems. Instead of manually writing hundreds of lines of repetitive code for health, mana, stats, and other game attributes, you can generate complete, production-ready systems in minutes.

The Problem

Every RPG or stat-based game needs attributes like Health, Mana, Strength, etc. Implementing these manually means:

  • Writing repetitive getter/setter code
  • Implementing regeneration logic
  • Adding validation and events
  • And more hours of boilerplate coding

The Solution

Simple Attribute Forge automates all of this:

  • 4-step wizard interface
  • Complete code generation
  • Built-in data-enum-scriptable object code generations
  • Thoroughly documentaed
  • Professional validation

Created by Living Failure

Hi! I'm Living Failure, an indie game developer. I handle everything from programming gameplay systems to designing and animating 2D and 3D assets.

Why I Built This Tool

After working on multiple RPG and strategy games, I found myself constantly recreating the same attribute systems. Every project needed health, mana, stats, and the associated UI systems. The code was always similar but never quite the same, so I couldn't just copy-paste between projects.

I realized that what the Unity community needed wasn't another asset store plugin with pre-built components, but a code generation wizard tool that could create custom attribute systems tailored to each project's specific needs in a generic way.

Design Philosophy

Generate, Don't Package

Instead of giving you pre-built components, Simple Attribute Forge generates clean, readable code that becomes part of your project. You own it, you can modify it, and you understand exactly how it works.

Performance First

The generated code is optimized for performance with cached lookups, dirty checking, and efficient memory usage. No runtime overhead from heavy frameworks.

Developer Experience

The tool should be intuitive enough for beginners but powerful enough for experienced developers. Clear validation, helpful error messages, and comprehensive documentation.

Development Journey

Simple Attribute Forge started as a personal tool to speed up my own game development. After using it successfully in several projects, I decided to polish it and share it with the Unity community.

Key Milestones

1 Personal Tool (2023)
Built basic code generation for my own RPG projects
2 Community Feedback
Shared early versions with a small group of developer friends, gathered feedback
3 Professional Polish
Added comprehensive validation, error handling, and documentation
4 Public Release
Released as free tool on Unity Asset Store

Free Version Philosophy

I believe that core game development tools should be accessible to everyone, which is why the free version of Simple Attribute Forge includes everything you need to build professional attribute systems.

What You Get (Free)

A complete attribute generation system:

  • Full attribute wizard
  • Complete code generation
  • Coroutine-based regeneration
  • Event system
  • Performance optimizations
  • JSON import/export
  • Interactive demo scene
  • Full documentation

Ultimate Version

Everything in Free PLUS three powerful subsystems:

  • Influence System - Formula-based attribute relationships, auto-calculation chains, visual formula editor
  • Modifier System - Complete buff/debuff framework with conditions, stacking, duration, and priority
  • Character Template System - Class-based starting attributes with template management
  • All subsystem wizards with AI-ready schema export
  • Generated Assets, Components, and Helpers for each subsystem
Important: The free version is NOT a "trial" or "limited" version. It's a complete, production-ready tool that does exactly what it promises - eliminates boilerplate code for attribute systems. You can ship commercial games with it. The paid versions add ADDITIONAL systems for complex RPGs, not missing core features.

Many developers will never need to upgrade. If your game just needs health, mana, stats, and regeneration - the free version does everything. Ultimate is for developers who want:
