The Future of Unity’s Game Engine

Ғылым және технология

I attended the Unite conference in Amsterdam to see what Unity had in store and what they are planning for the future. Can they turn around after the runtime fee mess?

    When Unity was starting they're also not that feature riched or as popular but luckily for Unity Java didn't get a good foundation in the gaming industry, and they were like on par, so it was very simple for people to just jump ship. Now it's not too simple cause for some it's been around circa a decade, but I bet they're trying a different engine as a backup plan.

    I have used Unity since it first started. I have been able to do great things with it for years but noticed over the years that it got bloated. Hopefully, it will be able to "right the ship". Godot feels like Unity 20 years ago at a fraction of the install size. Unity came to be because there was a desire for "Flash 3D." Godot may be the new Flash and rightly so.

    I started learning C++ because Unity made that mistake and I have to say, Unreal is really Unreal, for one MetaHuman you need 2GB space, if you are going to create a Game do it on a new drive with 1TB or more. Blueprints are nice and easy going but I had sometimes the feeling, when you create a recoil or CameraShaker it's not the same, a explosion for a Barrel or Earthquake, Motionsickness. Yes you can adjust it but it feels somehow weird for me.

    I feel like Unity's leadership is blind to what their target client is. They want to compete with Unreal and be on the cutting edge, but in reality, they are an engine for smaller studios and indie devs. The way unity works makes it easy to quickly iterate on ideas (in relative game dev terms) and is really approachable since C# is the language of choice. I just hope the new CEO sees this and steers the engine in the right direction.

    I've only came back to Unity for a year since like Unity 3 when I was in college. To be honest, I was excited with the improvements along the way. Until I found out that Unity is full of half-baked solutions. Sadly, the game I've been working on with my team is already 80% and to switch towards other game engines means we have to redo everything. I was pretty disappointed with Unity 6 announcement, was expecting better UGS and UI Toolkit and yet they are promoting Muse and Sentis.

    I don't get why so many people dunk on Generative AI, as a solo dev in a third world country I HAVE learned how to do everything on my own (from game design to coding to 3D modeling, texturing, animation, music composition, etc) but I AM ONE MAN, and 99.9% of the time I can't pay other people or buy assets, so I think generative AI is a godsend to speed up work. Similar to using premade assets, if you just use them as they are you are likely to end up with some cookie cutter asset flip stuff. If you are not lazy you will use AI to create material you can further edit/customize to what you really need (and in some cases you'll have tools like ControlNet available which can mitigate randomness if you have some technical skills). There are also official models made with only free/MIT content. It's honestly really annoying that there's always people really rude to you just for getting excited for new tools.

    Im still finishing my current commissioned works in Unity but already porting all my tools to Flax, Stride and Godot. Mainly because the tech for the runtimefee is already in place deep into the game engine files. Which makes me wonder, what other things beside counting installs, is doing. Looking back to Unity's recent history, it wouldn't surprise me if in the next 1 to 3 years, players or devs start discovering that games made with Unity are collecting data to sell to ad companies. Like I said, the tech of the runtime to count installs is already in place. God Knows what other things do that we devs don't know and don't have control over it. Unity 6 looks... somewhat solid. But like I said, the runtime fee repercussions is beyond the licensing. And I don't want any more drama.

    Cautious optimism isn't an option for me personally. That whole Unity fiasco revealed Unity to be an Advertising company who started out as a video game engine. (Remember Boo script?) The question to ask yourselves is that if you had known that Unity would be in the business of Advertisement, would you still have chosen it as your engine? Are you making games because games make money or are you making games because you love making games? Unity is the engine to choose if you want to maximize your chances of making as much money as you possibly can. If you just want to make games, pick a different engine.

    So, just a small point, Red Hat Linux isn't totally open source. It is the enterprise version of Linux and requires an enterprise license and then you can request the code and are not allowed to share it with anyone. I only point this out because Unity's scandals have been about their enterprise license pricing and it is interesting that the new CEO comes from Red Hat. I don't know a lot about him but it might be interesting to look into.

    I started out making games in Flash ActionScript 2, the Flash AS3, then spent a fair share of time with UDK (Unreal Development Kit or UE3 back in the day). Then I absolutely fell in love with Unity for a good 4 years or so before the following happened: Other Game Engines: Here's 5 new jaw-droppingly amazing features for you to check out in this new release. Unity: We have finally made dark skin UI accessible to Free users.

    It's nice to see you be direct & blunt about the trepidation & the lack of tact from Unity still. Honestly to me, I don't feel a lot of confidence, because the more 'positive' talk seems just like talk while they're still chasing features more intended to impress investors than give devs actual improvement on our tools. I'm installing Godot today.

    6:20 one think i really need from unity is being able to build windows and linux without changing platform. For example currently i'm developing my first pc game on steam as early access and when i make a update i need to build for windows and linux. But i dont need to stick on either on of them so cant i just stick on windows and order to make it build for both without wait for changing platform time. (Btw my game is called Hell Runner check it out please ^^)

    I just found them mandating online to be annoying more than anything. Regardless while it's nice to hear about they are taking the game development side of things seriously this seems to be really superficial. Or rather Unity Engine may be too large for them to maintain? It may be good for them to finish parts of the engine completely. For example Cinemachine is very close to being in a near perfect state (Relative to Unity's competition). So tightening up the workflow on that would be the easiest. If they said they were going down the line and wrapping up each one of these different parts to make the work flow faster then I'd say yes they are back on the right track... With this it just seems like they are doing the same old but you're doing a good job of presenting it with a smile and optimism that makes me kind of get distracted from that point. I'm going to be working with some small things in godot today at some point XD but man I made this crazy event based state machine that can double as a FSM and triple as a GOAP all with a 0,1 system for data retrieval making it super fast. It even batches goap BB automatically!

    Unity has a habit of moving on to the next big thing while their engine and its users suffer. I think it will always be this way because they have shareholders to appease and new and exciting technologies look a lot better on paper to investors than user experience. I'm not buying their spin.

    I think that the moment godot has a better ecosystem and physics, many of us will abandon unity. Godot has its core complete and also starts to resemble blender's growth. I started some KZread godot tutorials and the input system had such a small learning curve compared to unity's input system.

    Lol I’m the opposite to most people. I was writing my 2D engine with C++ and SDL but then woke up depressed and said “F it, I want to make a game, not and engine” and went back to Unity (after probably 4 years of not touching it… btw during those 4 years I went hardcore into 3D art and was occasionally working with Unreal which is my default engine for 3D, but wanted to make some classic arcade 2D games which is why I went to write my engine). I’m still a bit skeptical about fully returning to Unity tho, which is why I’m in this video but I’m remembering how stuff works in unity while I decide if I stay there for my 2D stuff or go back to write my own engine

    At the moment I am sticking with Unity because it still has a combination of factors which make it better than Godot or UE5 for me. But the second either A) Godot evolves it's ecosystem or B) UE5 gets first class text based scripting that isn't C++ then Unity is going to start slipping further for me.
