Just wanted to quickly update everyone who is interested, I've started updating the Platforming kit to support Unity 5.
The good news: It should be completed very soon, the only issues I am facing are minor and mostly caused by changes to the physics engine.
The bad news: (But in a way good
) I am not sure if the author of Virtual Controls Suite is going to update his asset for Unity 5, as he hasn't touched the asset since 2013. So if you are using that addon, I think you may be out of luck with Unity 5.
HOWEVER! I am going to try implementing my own mobile control solution using the new Unity GUI. I think this would be great in the long run, as mobile support will no longer require a separate asset purchase!
Thank you everyone for your patience, I will let you know as soon as it's ready.
