Custom data types and classes

With Databox you can create your own data types with custom editor gui elements by simply creating a class and inherit from DataboxType. This allows you to override several methods to smoothly integrate your data type into Databox. In fact, all databox datatypes have been created exactly like this.

Intuitive visual data editor

Manage your data easily with the Databox editor. Duplicate, rename, rearrange or modify your data all within one place. The editor has been designed to blend perfectly into Unity. Therefore it works with both dark and light skin. Additionally Databox comes with a Databox object manager which allows you to have all single scriptable objects in one place.

Test and change data at runtime

Databox comes with a runtime editor which allows you to keep track of all your data inside of your game. Cloud functionality is also available at runtime, this allows you to change and test your data directly in your game and upload the data to your Databox cloud. This is very effective for balancing your game and finding the right values or keeping your game up to date even after release.

Workflow

Databox supports all kind of workflows. Each Databox database is saved within a scriptable object. It is up to you if you want to use one object with multiple tables for all of your data or create multiple objects for different purposes such as game configurations, enemy values and save games.

Databox has a specific feature where objects created at runtime can get data from an initial Databox object and register itself to a specific runtime Databox object which can then be used to store your games current state. The package contains two demo scenes which explains those workflows.
