Unity has changed its pricing model, and game developers are pissed off::Unity has announced that starting on January 1st, 2024, it will implement a new pricing model that will charge developers based on how many times a game was installed.
I don’t get it…Unity just forced the entire development community to use Unreal. The pricing structure isn’t even close between the two.
At 200k downloads at 1$ a pop, unreal is still free…Unity is $40k.
Or CryEngine
Or Godot
Or O3DE (a CryEngine fork … that’s from what I understand heavily diverged)
That’s a 20% cut…on top of Apple/Google’s 30% cut. You only get 50% of the sticker price. That’s fucking criminal.
