The Unity Game engine is a fantastic tool but it's not my favorite. It can sometimes feel clunky and bloated to make a games with. But am I wrong? There's only one way to find out! I was challenge by YOU to make a 3D game using Unity and here's how it turned out. Will my thoughts change on the engine? Is Unity's Particle System too strong for Godot? Or will Unity break me one and for all...

Awesome devlog as always! Really liked the slick UI, it really pops. Interesting to see your point of view on Unity coming from Godot. I think the main selling point of Unity for me is the plethora of tutorials and assets available from the get go, but it can also be a rabbit hole! I’m keen to give Godot a go at some point too. It’s only by looking at different game engines that you realise what the underlying systems do and how to best leverage them imo.

Hey, that’s a pretty cool looking game! I was thinking… a couple ways to enhance the feeling of speed… a simple, very subtle particle effect in front of the camera that moves in whichever way your ship is pointed. Tiny little specks that turn into streaks. Also, go nuts with the motion blur as you hit those hard corners. Weird idea, how about a powerup that allows you to shoot a grappler cable when you go flying off the track. It could grab the track and sort of slingshot you forward, giving you a chance to keep going. Maybe it’s an expendable. Maybe it’s a core mechanic, who knows. I just kept thinking that it would be cool. Anyhow, keep up the good work

It would have been cool if you had gone a little bit more in depth regarding how you implemented the AG system and driving mechanics and the whole evolution process to better understand why you ended up settling for the third attemp. Real cool looking project, nice work.

Hello, how did you manage to make car controller more manageable while turning, care to share some insights? Thank you
Nice Game! One Mistake With The UI is that the Text Is Not Scaling With The Monitor So People With A Smaller Monitor Have Some Issues With The UI. The Fix Is Easy. Just Click On Canvas > Canvas Scaler > Check For Something Called 'Constant Pixel Size' And Change That To 'Scale With Screen Size', Then You Are Basically Done. Just Set Screen Match Mode To 'Match Width Or Height' Then Move The Slider Under The 'Match Width Or Height' Thing To How You See Fit. Anyways, Great Game, Better Than I Could Make in a week, Good job!

For someone that doesn't really like Unity you made an awesome looking game. I agree that Godot is far easier to get set up and running then Unity as Unity is quite bloated but its quite convenient to not have to download each plugin so I guess it depends on what you need from an engine.

I believe having knowledge and expertise in more than one engine is a huge plus. This way, depending on your game, you can pick the kind of engine that suits your needs better. In my case, If I want to make a 2D game of any kind, Godot. If I want to make a 3D game of high quality, Unity. If I want to experiment/prototype, Godot. If I want to make a simple 3D game, Godot. Next time, if I want to release a game to Steam, probably Unity in 3D, since the experience of compiling Godot is a medicine I do NOT want to take. If I want to make a multiplayer game, Godot with Gotm. If I want to make a game for any console, Godot. Definetely Godot, I dont even want to touch unity for that matter. And Lastly, if I want to make a multiplayer, non-profit game, i'll use Roblox Studio.

I think the effort it takes to learn new programming languages when you already know at least one is something most people overestimate drastically. The vast majority of principles carry over 1 to 1 with slightly different syntax. And when talking about GDScript in Godot, the learning curve is especially flat.
