To say it’s been a bad week for Unity is the understatement of 2023. First they announced a terrible new Pricing scheme, then their customers revolted, as the week goes on though, it gets worse and worse for Unity, from threats from an employee shutting down their offices, to more studios threatening to leave, to scummy secret changes to their terms of service and back door deals with clients to get around the Unity Runtime Fee in an attempt to bury a competitor.

I have literally no idea. It just pops up left right and center so it seemed it is a competitor.

It looks like it’s a full engine, that’s pretty neat. I might have to check it out, though I’m on unreal ATM so unity drama doesn’t affect me

Thanks for elaborating. Unreal is supposed to be very good. How is their price model?

It’s free until you make a million dollars (so basically it’s free for me, probably forever 😭), after which they take 5%

In that case, it’s a pretty good model. Thanks for elaborating.
