### "Develop amazing, immersive and interactive 3D games"

August 2, 2021

5.0

Unity is the leading game development engine that allows game development for major operating systems.

Pros

Games built on Unity can be exported for Windows, Linux, OSx, iOS, Android, Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and popular AR and VR devices. Comes with a real-time 3D rendering capability and supports programing on C#. There is a free version for individuals and students making it more accessible to the starters.

Cons

Features like render textures and stencil buffer support are expensive. Difficult to optimize large games for performance. The longer learning curve with an old-fashioned user interface.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Unity

We choose Unity over its alternative for its export capabilities, cheaper pricing, and availability of free personal licenses.

### "Unity - Creating a new generation of Games and Game Developers"

October 9, 2020

4.0

I really love Unity, and it has remained my default choice in making any game, be it a simple 2D platformer or a realistic Spaceship simulator. My experience with Unity has so far been fantastic, and I can honestly recommend it to anyone who wants to make games. It would not be an overstatement to say that Unity is responsible for the boom in the increasing number of game developers, and has made game development accessible to everyone, to a certain extent. It is a wonderful tool to learn and master, and with AR and VR seeping into mainstream apps and games, learning Unity seems to be a valuable skill for anyone to gain.

Pros

Unity is THE game engine you need to be using if you want to speed up your game development process. It makes deploying to multiple platforms a breeze, the User Interface is a delight and the games you can make with it are only bounded by your imagination. Here are some of the highlights of my most favorite things about Unity: - Great Community : You can find a great community for Unity everywhere, whether it be Reddit, Discord, Stack Overflow or its own forums. It really easy to get help and ideas on anything that you want to implement with it. This is by far Unity's greatest strength. - Learning Curve, UI/UX : Anyone can easily pick up Unity, and get started on making simple stuff really quickly. You can find tutorials and guides in any corner of the Internet and the UI is pretty much to-the-point and now with Visual Scripting via Bolt, the barrier to make great games is lowered even further. - Chock full of features : Unity is fully loaded with awesome features. In-built tools for rigging, animation, terrain generation, Lighting, AR/VR support and much much more. - The Asset Store : You can get pretty much everything you would need to make a game in here. Art, Code, Music, VFX, pretty much everything is up for grabs here, so that you outsource some aspects of your games if your are short on time and skill. It is a lifesaver. And there are plenty of high quality free assets here too.

Cons

There is little to not like about Unity. It has made game development accessible to many and is opening up new possibilities with its AR and VR toolset. But, there are a few niggles here and there as with any tool, some are minor and some are unfortunately, deal breaking. Some of the things that I like the least about Unity are: - Too much of Half Baked Features : Unity is full of features, but some of them are really not meant for production, and some are straight up confusing and keep changing with every version. The animation pipeline is frankly kind of complicated, with all the new tools that keep on changing. The HDRP/URP pipeline still doesn't support custom hand-written shaders. Switching between HDRP and URP can possibly break your project (Always have a backup ready!), and the Shader Graph and VFX Graph still need much work. And finally, the new DOTS system has been in development since couple of years and is still not production ready and complicated to learn. - Sub par Rendering when compared with competitors: When comparing Unity with AAA game engines like Unreal and CryEngine, the rendering pales in comparison. It has been fixed to some extent with HDRP, but still you need to do a lot of tinkering to get the graphics to look like what you get by default in Unreal Engine. - Web Deployment: Web Deployment is still not satisfactory as Web builds need to be of small size and run on mobile browsers too, both in which Unity fails.

### "Uma caixa de areia pronta para você exercitar sua criatividade."

March 28, 2023

5.0

Aprendi programação orientada a objeto diretamente na plataforma da unity, os cursos que eles disponibilizam de tempos em tempos ajudam a desenvolver um jogo completo, e já utilizei para projetos comerciais de aplicativos, inclusive ganhando prêmios de inovação com um aplicativo de realidade aumentada para localização em eventos, como um mapa virtual usando a sua geolocalização.

Pros

a ferramenta tem uma curva de aprendizado extremamente suave, muito amigável para iniciantes em programação, tanto que as bibliotecas c# utilizadas são muito simples e bastante modulares.pode agradar a todos os espectros, desde um usuário focado em desenvolvimento de arte 2d ou 3d, quanto um programador que foca em desenvolver mecânicas sem se preocupar em perder tempo com modelos 3d ou arte

Cons

infelizmente ela não traz a flexibilidade de outras ferramentas que possibilitam a integração com outras linguagens como python, que tem sido muito procurado no mercado.

### "A great tool, but need dedication to get things done"

August 4, 2022

5.0

I come from a pure development background. Unity really improved the production process, mainly related to the speed in producing a prototype.

Pros

Unity is one of the tools with the largest community base. This means lots of free tutorials, free resources, discussion boards, samples, documents, etc. It is widely used and can easily export to several platforms, including consoles

Cons

Unity is somewhat hard to master and needs effort and dedication to get things done.

### "Perfect Game Engine "

August 6, 2021

Pros

The collaboration tool offered by unity is the best thing about it we can easily collaborate with other developers on the same project with the pro version of it. The Unity asset store is another amazing thing about unity we and get the free and paid assets from there both 2D & 3D. It supports various types of tracing for AR and a Web AR and AR experience could be built using unity.

Cons

The errors are difficult to handle some times specifically regarding he memory issue. The issues regarding the os are more complex to understand wen working on a XR experience. The Assets panel is the most difficult thing to understand for a beginner.

### "Unity in Diversity"

December 1, 2022

5.0

Overall, Unity is that it is a powerful and versatile game engine that is easy to learn and use. It has an extensive library of features and tools that allow developers of all levels to create games of all types quickly and efficiently. It also has extensive documentation, tutorials, and support available for developers to help them get the most out of the engine. Unity also has a wide range of platforms, including PC, mobile, console, and virtual reality, so developers can easily reach a wide range of audiences.

Pros

Unity is a great product. It is incredibly powerful and versatile, with a wide range of tools and features that make creating and developing games easier than ever before. Its intuitive drag-and-drop editor allows users to quickly create stunning visuals and complex gameplay mechanics, while its powerful scripting engine enables developers to create highly customized and unique experiences. Additionally, Unity's Asset Store offers a wealth of free and paid assets, including models, textures, sounds, and scripts, that can be easily integrated into projects. This makes it easy to find the perfect asset for any project. Unity also offers a wealth of tutorials and resources, making it easy to learn and master the software. All in all, Unity is an invaluable tool for game developers, and I highly recommend giving it a try.

Cons

The main downside of using Unity is that it can be difficult to learn and use without prior coding knowledge or experience. It also has a steep learning curve, so it can take time and effort to become proficient in Unity. Additionally, Unity can have performance issues if not used correctly, which can result in laggy or slow game play. Finally, Unity is an expensive engine, so it may not be the most cost-effective solution for those on a limited budget.

### "A great engine for small to mid-range project"

April 22, 2019

4.0

We had a great time working on Unity, we pushed the engine to its limit at the time and this allowed us to be featured in many show at Unity's booth. However, as we switched to Unreal3D for the following project, we found a better fit for our needs in that engine. Unity would still be perfect if we had to go work on a less demanding project, less demanding platform and/or 2D projects.

Pros

Unity3D is an easy to understand engine, with an intuitive organisation that allow any new developer to get a grip quickly on a new project. Things are getting more complicated as you progress, but support from the community of users makes it easier. The architecture of the folders is simple and allow raw assets to get along easily with integrated ones. This engine is perfect for 2D project and coming up with a prototype in a quick and efficient manner. Starting a 3D project will require more time and optimizations, but the latest versions of the engine are getting better at this.

Cons

The main challenge we encountered with our project on Unity was, at the time, the port of the game to consoles. It was very demanding and a lot of updates on the engine were breaking TRC/XR, meaning that we had to wait for fixes before being able to send the builds to console manufacturers and get them certified. On top of that, the engine is trying to compete with other advanced 3D engines, but lack the optimization and "game oriented" architecture that you can find in the heart of other known engines available on the market. This is a great engine for small/mid-ranged project but should be avoided for bigger project that would involve advanced 3D rendering.

### "With the new changes made to how Unity will charge you... Best to move to another product and save."

September 27, 2023

4.0

Pros

Unity used to be a great way for someone to get their foot in the door and start developing a title. For free you could learn to make a game with minimal to no coding experience and develop an idea for others to try while you learned their no-code portion.

Cons

The changes to the pay structure make Unity a no-go moving forward. The fact they are going back and charging people money is frankly disgusting. Learn something like Gamemaker and find a better way to enhance your skills into another platform afterwords.

### "Why Unity is the best engine for VR projects."

October 11, 2023

5.0

Overall, Unity is the best development engine for VR projects due to its vast Asset Store and the ability to easily preview while developing. These factors are why I would prefer Unity over its competitors.

Pros

Unity's Asset Store offers a vast collection of assets, plugins, and tools that can be easily integrated into my project because VR projects for brands often require rapid development, utilizing the Unity Asset Store can be a significant time-saver. Also with unity you can easily configure my VR applications to each headset brand.

Cons

What I don't like about Unity is the inability to easily transfer project files between my workstations. As I travel frequently, I wish I could work on my projects while on the go.

Abbiamo potuto sviluppare app con una facilità che i linguaggi nativi non ci avrebbero permesso, al costo di un prodotto più pesante e forse meno prestante, ma ne è valsa comunque la pena

Pros

Con Unity lo sviluppo è rapido e piacevole, ha premesso la realizzazione di diverse app in tempo molto brevi. Inoltre essendo cross-platform è possibile anche compilare per vari OS, anche se non è una proceduta completamente indolore

Cons

Soprattutto in campo mobile, non sempre è facile far si che un'app si adatti automaticamente ai vari layout, e il debug l'ho trovato molto carente

I am still a huge fan of Unity and hope to see it continue to flourish. It has been rocky at times, but we have stuck with it and made several games in game jams and prototypes that we continue to refine and expand upon.

Pros

Unity is easy to use compared to other game engines, free for your first $100k, and has plenty of features and great documentation. It is a great place to start and has a vibrant community and asset store to add and integrate anything you might need for your next game project.

Cons

I worked on several simulators on unity and we managed our goas thaks to this tool. We animated our models inside, programed the logic of a multiiplayer game on it and handled the assets via our .net code. Also we programed some devices out side thks to the blue tooth port by the .net port api. Some plug in on the asset store made our life easier like the scene transcitions one.

Pros

Really easy to use (if you know what a game means on terms of codification) Reallystic physc Collition handlling Ambien oclusion Paralex compatibility with material editors like sublime. Integrated animator. Export on several plataforms and devices Web port(beta) Several plans for prices (student , small team) Compatible with control version Compatibility with visual studio Compatibility with 3D like oculus ,etc. Unity asste store allows you to buy code that solve features you nee dto do Can create projectts that out put to computer ports. Compatibility with .net 2.0 And other sevral things that made unity one of the best video games engines.

### "The Ultimate Tool for Indie Developers"

November 13, 2023

4.0

Unity is like a game guru for me. When it comes to making mobile games, it's the king. With a moderate C# knowledge and my love for creating 3D graphics, Unity opened up a whole new world. I realized that the possibilities are endless, and the room for further improvement is always open. However, the video game development world is super competitive.

Pros

With some C# knowledge and the ability to create my own assets in Blender, the journey is much smoother. The availability of free learning resources and Unity documentation is what makes Unity stand out, also, Unity's community support is crucial for me, offering help whenever I hit a roadblock. The engine's physics simulations is fantastic, and it opened up exciting possibilities. Being able to create games for different platforms is a plus too. Unity's asset store never failed to provide me with a handy starting point for prototyping my projects.

Cons

When I was a beginner with a little coding experience, Unity felt like a complex maze. It took a bit of time and patience to get the hang of it. The interface as well, although powerful, felt overwhelming. Storage management is another consideration, sometimes when working on numerous projects or prototypes, Unity's storage demands made my PC run out of space. Unity frequently releases updates, which is great for improvements but can be challenging when working on a project that requires compatibility with a specific version. Upgrading sometimes caused me issues.

### "It really was good, but that was years ago"

May 26, 2020

2.0

Beginning to use Unity for our largest game to date at first seemed like a good decision but in the end turned out to be a tremendously damaging mistake. The version control systems broke entire project folders multiple times. The conversion formats were never transferable. It's not out of the question that Unity's lackadaisical attitude towards Nintendo's Wii U editor prevented hundreds of titles from releasing on that platform (they ended up two years behind schedule of making a functional version for Wii U development). When Windows 10 started force-installing, Unity did not have functional support for Windows 10 for far too long. When trying to use Unity again (of course outside of commercial games, because it's too unstable in my opinion for those) in game jams, it's routinely been put to shame because of being unusable even by experienced Unity developers.

Pros

When I first began using Unity, it was during Unity 4 and I considered it a wonderful editor to make 3D games. I greatly preferred the Unity approach at the time relative to Unreal. I initially learned how to use Unity by making a horror game for a 48-hour game jam over New Year's.

Cons

Unity these days is plagued by bugs and I haven't considered Unity "stable" in several years. The company routinely has glaring issues reported by users for years in a row without addressing them, instead opting to add new features, despite the underlying tech not working in the first place. Unity at this point is over-engineered, deeply unstable, and not even optimal in terms of features and usability compared to competitors.

### "The most complete game engine"

April 4, 2020

5.0

My overall experience with Unity is more than satisfactory. I was able to develop and publish a handful of games, from a simple hyper-casual game to an elaborated multiplayer online game. Unity has given me the possibility to live developing games and although it's not always perfect it is very, very close.

Pros

Since its conception Unity has opened the game industry doors for everybody. What seemed to be a very distant dream has become a reality. And with the advent of the indie developers, Unity has been raising the bar even further, launching world-class features, pumping the engine with AAA quality tools. What I like most in Unity is the mission to "democratize" game development, enabling developers to create from the most simple to the most robust game. With its Asset Store, it is possible to extend the engine's functionality and there are plugins that allow users to develop games without writing a single code.

Cons

Creating simple games is quite easy in Unity, there are tons of materials online and they even offer courses. But to take bigger steps it's another story. Although having tools that allow development without writing a single code, it's difficult to be able to deploy a high-quality game if you don't know computer science. And because Unity focuses too much energy advertising for starter users, there's not much quality material and courses for intermediate users who wants to take that higher step.

### "Easy game development"

September 8, 2021

5.0

It is really easy to learn and has a great assetstore where you can buy extentions to make the software even more powerful. You get several types of compiling in the main package so you would not have to pay extra just to compile a android app. So the open structure of the software makes it easy to get in and run the learning material and get going. I have been stuck to Unity since i tried it and love the asset system.

Pros

It is easy to work with, easy to learn and has a free entrypoint from where you can get into the software and learn. You only need a pro licence if you realease and earn.

Cons

The way they have split the versions in render pipelines. Sometimes i need to buy several asset types if i need to compile in several render pipelines.

### "Great for 3D animation"

August 16, 2023

5.0

Unity has been beneficial for us for AR purposes for a long time now and we also love the quality renders and top notch graphics of the particles to use in a project. However, there is still room for some improvements.

Pros

Most impressive feature of Unity is its high quality of the particle system. The graphics of renders and the lightings of the animations are top notch. We mostly use Unity for AR purposes and it is most impressive among its competitors.

Cons

One con is the complex coding in the software which could be difficult for a first timer or a non-coder and sometimes the projects become very large sized but other that that it has been most useful for us.

Unity has better graphics and has a wide range of assets to use from third party websites.

### "Unity - Un vrai moteur de jeu vidéo"

November 27, 2023

5.0

Bonne, très bonne. je l'enseigne depuis 6 ans et je ne m'en lasse pas. je n'ai jamais eu besoin de passer sur l'Unreal Engine.

Pros

Nous l'utilisons à la fac pour enseigner le game design et le développement cross-plateforme sur mobile. Les étudiants réalisent un proto fonctionnel et déployé sur leur mobile en moins de 6 heures de TP

Cons

Son système de pricing qui change et dont on ne sait plus trop à quoi il va ressembler. La polémique a fait grand bruit en début d'année obligeant Unity à revenir sur sa décision. jusqu'à quand ?
