The WASD Camera Controller supports both 2D and 3D games, providing a dynamic and flexible camera controller powered by Cinemachine. To use the controller: Drag and drop the WASD Camera Controller Prefab into your scene and hit play.
Modify the WASDCameraCMV GameObject's Transform values inside the WASD Camera Controller Prefab to set the default starting position and rotation for the camera.
If you encounter unwanted zoom behavior, set all values under the Zoom Settings to 0 to resolve the issue.
