Free Parking is an open game project using Unity’s ECS and the Latios Framework. This project serves as a playground for the Latios Framework developers and the community to discover, learn, and develop the features of the Latios Famework. The project offers a lot of creative freedom to contributors. Whether you are just starting out, or a seasoned user of these technologies, park here and explore!

The Unity version is currently 2022.3.13f1

Join the Latios Framework Community Discord.

The main branch may contain experimental features that have not yet been finalized in an official Latios Framework release. Only use this branch if you intend to experiment with or help develop new features.

If your goal is to learn the Latios Framework or create a bug repro for a release version, please use the stable/0.9 branch. If this branch is not up-to-date with the latest release version of the Latios Framework, ping the community discord to request the update.

The main game loop features a 3rd person adventure in a populated world. The player is tasked to find specific characters and objects in the environment given a set of clues. There are no enemies or any other perils. However, there are many distractions that the player may explore.

Dev dungeons are unique areas of the game the player may enter. Upon doing so, the player will be met with an entirely new world with new gameplay, or perhaps even no gameplay at all. A dev dungeon can contain anything. It may contain a sample project for using a specific feature of the Latios Framework. It may contain a test scene used to develop new features. It may contain a new community member’s experiments as they learn about the technology. Or perhaps it may contain art or gameplay prototypes and experimentations.

Dev dungeons allow the player to discover various features of the Latios Framework in a highly explorative environment. And they allow anyone in the community to grow and experiment.

It doesn’t matter if you are total beginner to the Latios Framework, or a seasoned user of the technology. Nor does it matter if you have no programming skills at all and want to help make the Free Parking world a more interesting place, or if you are a DOTS wizard seeking the Dungeon-Of-The-Year award. You can contribute!

I determine how much this project is valued by the Latios Framework community based on how much others from the community contribute to it. The more the community contributes to this project, the more time and effort I will put into the project as well. Otherwise, I sometimes use this project as a place to experiment with new features as I develop them.
