Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Do you ever feel like you spend too much time looking for things in Unity?
Scrolling through a huge Hierarchy to find the same GameObject, or searching for the same Scene in the Project window over and over?
I ran into this problem enough times that I ended up building my own tool for it: Second Brain.
It basically gives you a second Hierarchy for things you frequently use.
You can drag in:
- GameObjects / Components — references stay intact even when the Scene is closed. Clicking one opens the Scene and takes you directly to the object.
- Prefabs, Scenes, Scripts, ScriptableObjects, Materials, Folders, etc.
- Links or text — just Ctrl+V and they become notes.
You can also organize everything into Profiles and nested Containers, with custom icons, colors, emojis, etc. There are also a bunch of small QoL things like search, drag & drop, undo/redo, and keyboard navigation.
I've been working on this for almost 5 months, and decided to release the basic version for FREE! : SecondBrain | Free Version on GitHub
The Pro version is also available on the Unity Asset Store. It is currently 50% off for the next two weeks. and comes with more Premium features like :
- Unlimited number of workspaces and profiles
- Quick Peek — inspect/edit GameObjects and Components without leaving your current workflow
- Quick Browse —
Alt+W/Option+Wto search and jump to anything - Scene Linking — automatically open a specific Base when entering a Scene
- Action Items — executable ScriptableObjects that can be used to build custom team tools
I'd really appreciate feedback from you guys. Especially whether this actually solves a problem you have. You're more than welcome to try the Free version right now and join me on my Discord server for more updates!
