The act of creating a game using only pre-made assets that are generally sold on the Unity Storefront. These types of games are usually sold on Steam, itch.io, or GameJolt. The term was first coined by Jim Sterling in 2014. Notable games that are asset flips covered by Sterling include:

* Anything made by Digital Homicide.
* Island Light
* The Bullet: Time of Revenge
* Day Survival Begins
* Cookie Simulator 2015

Kyle: Dude, this new game is awful as everything in-game is an asset flip.
Chris: Yeah, I hope Jim Sterling covers it.
