Chris Zhu, CEO at Yahaha Studios, said:
“Yahaha Studios is constantly investigating new technologies to support creators – we are passionate about making it easy to make great content and bring imagination to life. When our research showed that some developers were spending hours searching different stores for assets, we wanted to help them. Yahaha Asset Ovi is a free platform that anyone can use, and it is integrated with other storefronts, such as the Unity Asset Store, saving game developers considerable time and frustration searching for the right assets.”
Joel Fällbom, Head Teacher of Game and UX Design at Futuregames, said:
“As someone who has spent countless hours looking through every single asset store, finding high-quality assets, with real-time previews, with all the necessary info such as polycount, topology, LODs, and textures is really time-consuming and difficult. In fact, it is close to impossible to navigate and find what you need. YAHAHA 3DSearch solves a real problem for anyone developing a game, and I can’t wait to try it.”
Yahaha previously announced that it had secured an investment of $40 million at the end of 2022. Yahaha is currently open in Early Alpha, offering anyone the opportunity to be among the test the platform and share feedback as it continues to grow.
