We are using Heathen for our project

We are using Heathen for our project. The developer has a Discord where he very quickly replies to questions about the tool, should you have any. As for the tool itself, it is super straightforward, especially compared to other tools of the same type.
I got the tool through Github Sponsor, and honestly 15$ for what I got is more than worth the price!

I have used Heathen's tools for Steam…

I have used Heathen's tools for Steam for a long time. The product is excellent, but not so well documented. The price is getting too high, and the constant paid upgrades send the wrong message, especially for a tool priced per seat. The cost of this got out of hand.

Reply from Heathen

Thank you for taking the time to use our tools and for leaving a thoughtful review. We genuinely appreciate both the kind words about the product and the constructive feedback.

To clarify a few points for transparency:

Updates and pricing
As with most commercial software, a purchase includes one full year of updates. Each subsequent year is available at a steep discount. In our case, that is 20% of the base price for another full year of updates. We work hard to make this model clear across our store pages and documentation.

Licensing options
The per-seat license you are referring to is the Unity Asset Store default. For teams or studios, we also offer alternative licensing via GitHub Sponsors or Patreon at $15. This provides a perpetual, site-based license along with one month of updates.

Documentation
We are sorry to hear the documentation did not meet your expectations. Our Steam documentation lives at kb.heathen.group/steam, and our goal is to provide best-in-class documentation. We believe it already exceeds what is typically offered by Microsoft, Valve, Unity, or Epic, but we are always looking to improve. We would truly value any specific suggestions on how we could make the knowledge base more useful for you.

Thanks again for your long-term support and for helping us improve.

Incredible Toolkit

Heathen's Toolkit makes working with the Steam SDK incredibly less painful, it's very well developed and to top it off, their support is unmatched! They go way above and beyond to help. If there were more than 5 stars, this is one asset that would definitely get it.

A lot of functionnalities, covering all my needs for an indie game developer.

The support is also very fast, kind and precise.
I recommend :)

Worth every penny!

I purchased Steamworks last year but never used it. Recently, as my project is about to launch, I wanted to explore what Steamworks can do. It turns out it was worth every penny. I am very satisfied with the system and the help and responses I received here. It's cool to have an achievement system and cloud saving system, and I know that Steamworks Complete is capable of much more. Great job!

Fantastic support & Asset

Really impressed by the support from the asset creator & team. seems like they're always in discord answering questions. The asset itself is great and has easily saved me hundreds of hours.

I've received top notch support

I've received top notch support, and the developers ensure that there are regular code updates for their feature-rich API. The code has saved me a lot of time and effort in developing my single- and multi-player Steam game (Still in development, working name is "Fusion Racer")

Great Support

Heathen Engineering provides great support and has helped me solve many issues that I've had unrelated to the tool, has rapidly added non-standard features that I required, and has quickly responded to my help requests whenever I've had them.

Friendly Crowd and Helpful Tools

The software makes multiplayer much easier, and the developer(s) provides a lot of help through their Discord. Moreover, by being a sponsor on Github, I have access to samples and prefabs

The developers are super nice too.

5 Star Customer Support and Product

I became a gitHub sponsor of Heathen, mainly for the access to Steamworks Complete. This solution is robust and about as user friendly as it gets, that being said, multiplayer is still no walk in the park, and this company's support via discord is second to none. On multiple occasions, I asked a lengthy question, and every time I received a very detailed response with reference links, in minutes! Tutorials show examples of how to use their asset but also just good design and flow habits. Highly recommend if your using Steam and Unity.

Great customer service, great assets, great documentation

I was already using Steamworks on my game. But my implementation was awful. Then i became a sponsor of Heathen Group to try to port it, i can say that it was a breeze.

The documentation was really good and in a couple of hours, said and done.

A few weeks later i had to make some changes on the ballistics for a game on the company i work.
Then i found that they had a Ballistic API for my use case, but when i was testing it was not working because i needed a Raycast2D.

Within minutes they updated the package and just worked for the project.

TLDR: Great customer service, great assets, great documentation.
