unity-2d

unity-2d is a skill for Claude Code from Nice-Wolf-Studio/unity-claude-skills. It costs 73 tokens per session (5,123 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to making two-dimensional games in Unity 6. Unity is a game engine; two-dimensional games use flat scenes built from images, tile grids, and dedicated physics components.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working with sprites, tilemaps, 2D collisions, 2D lighting, sorting layers, or SpriteRenderers in Unity 6.
Why use it?
It gives developers a reference for setting up a 2D project and choosing the Unity systems needed for graphics, levels, lighting, and physics.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

unity-2d scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Unity 2D Development

2D Project Setup

Unity supports dedicated 2D project creation. When starting a 2D project:

  • Select the 2D template (or 2D (URP) for 2D lighting support) when creating a new project
  • The 2D template auto-installs required packages: 2D Sprite, 2D Tilemap Editor, 2D Animation
  • The Scene view defaults to orthographic (top-down XY plane)
  • The camera is set to Orthographic projection by default
  • Imported images default to Sprite (2D and UI) texture type

Core 2D subsystems from the docs:

  • Sprites: "2D graphic objects" -- the foundation for 2D games
  • Tilemaps: "A GameObject that allows you to quickly create 2D levels using tiles and a grid overlay"
  • 2D Physics: Dedicated physics system with 2D-optimized components
  • 2D Rendering in URP: 2D lights, lighting effects, and pixelated visual styles

Sprites and SpriteRenderer

Sprite Assets

Sprites are "a type of 2D asset you can use in your Unity project." They function as 2D graphic objects with specialized import and management features. The 2D Sprite package must be installed (included with 2D templates).

Key sprite capabilities:

  • Import sprites or spritesheets from textures
  • Use the Sprite Editor to cut sprites from textures (slicing)
  • Apply cropping to remove transparent areas
  • Create collision geometry for sprite physics
  • 9-slicing for reusing sprites at various sizes
  • Masking to hide or reveal parts of a sprite or group of sprites

Source: https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/Manual/sprite/sprite-landing.html

SpriteRenderer Component

The SpriteRenderer component controls how sprites display in scenes. Key properties:

Property Description
sprite The Sprite asset to render
color Tint color applied to the sprite (default: white = no tint)
flipX / flipY Flip the sprite along an axis without moving the Transform
drawMode Simple, Sliced, or Tiled
size Dimensions when using Sliced or Tiled draw modes
sortingLayerName Name of the renderer's sorting layer
sortingOrder Priority within a sorting layer (lower renders first)
maskInteraction None, Visible Inside Mask, or Visible Outside Mask
spriteSortPoint Center or Pivot -- determines sort distance from camera

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

unity-2d is a skill published in the GitHub repository Nice-Wolf-Studio/unity-claude-skills (30 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 73 tokens to every session and 5,123 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
