About UNIS files
A .unis file is a custom game course created for UniMaker, a fan-made 2D platformer engine developed by NinStar. These files store the precise grid coordinates of terrain, enemy placements, items, background graphics, and level logic.
Users typically interact with these files when downloading or sharing custom community levels. The major disadvantage of the .unis format is that it is strictly proprietary and isolated. It requires the exact version of the UniMaker software to open and play. Files can break or load incorrectly if opened in mismatched software versions. You cannot natively edit a .unis file in standard text editors, nor can you import it into modern 2D game engines like Godot or Unity.
Because of this closed architecture, standard online converters completely fail to process .unis files. Users often want to convert these files into generic JSON data files to read the level coordinates, or extract the level layout into a PNG image map, but lack the tools to do so. This file format is difficult to open or convert because often only the original UniMaker software can properly read or export the level data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your UNIS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The UNIS Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our UNIS converter.
