Have the recent Unity shenanigans made you consider an alternative engine?

Has anyone used it? How is it compared to Unity or UE?

Sure, good luck with it, not everyone needs Unity, Unreal, Godot, Frostbite, CryEngine,...

Honestly this current drama with Unity doesn't surprise me at all. They paved the way to go down this road years ago. Just use Godot.

Title should read Unreal Engine not Unity

Is it time to start avoiding all games created with Unity?

moron4hire Sep 20, 2023 View on HN

Not if you're programming your apps in Unity :P

Maybe they are saving that for their Unity3D competitor :)

This sounds interesting. Would you consider Unreal rather than Unity?
