LeadWerks Marketplace Launched
<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/leadwerks-marketplace-launched.png" width="568" height="267" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>These days it seems most game engines have an integrated marketplace that make it easy for their users to acquire assets such as models, levels and scripts. The <a href="https://www.leadwerks.com/">Leadwerks game engine</a> just launched a store of their own. The <a href="https://www.leadwerks.com/community/files">Leadwerks Marketplace</a> launched with over 50GB of assets with categories of Models, Materials, Scripts, Shaders and <img width="420" height="197" align="right" alt="Image1.png.24d14b7a0b167925a73218b14beb0d80.png" src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/leadwerks-marketplace-launched.png" />Sounds. There are a few free assets available, but oddly no ability to sort by price. You can browse the contents of the marketplace using the link above. The Leadwerks Marketplace is intended as a replacement for the Steam Workshop that didn’t work out as hoped.</p>
<p>Details of the marketplace from the <a href="https://www.leadwerks.com/community/blogs/entry/2165-introducing-leadwerks-marketplace/">Leadwerks blog</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>How does Leadwerks Marketplace improve things?: </p>
<ul>
<li>Easy download of zip files that are ready to use with Leadwerks. You can use File > Import menu item to extract them to the current project, or just unzip them yourself.
</li>
<li>All content is curated. Items are checked for compatibility and quality.
</li>
<li>Clear technical specifications for every file, so you know exactly what you are getting.
</li>
<li>Cheap and reliable storage forever with Amazon S3.
</li>
<li>Any DLCs or Workshop Store items you purchased can be downloaded from Leadwerks Marketplace by <a href="https://www.leadwerks.com/community/settings/login/?service=11">linking your Steam account</a> to your profile.
</li>
<li>Easy publishing of your items with our web-based uploader. </li>
</ul>
<p>We’re launching with over 50 gigabytes of game assets, and more will be added continuously. To kick off the launch we’re offering some items at major discounts during the <a href="https://www.leadwerks.com/community/blogs/entry/2175-summer-game-tournament/">Summer Game Tournament</a>. </p>
