Welcome to the game development community! This is a place to talk about and post anything related to the field of game development.
This is of course not including the yearly Unity subscription, where Unity Pro costs $2,040 per seat (although they may have Enterprise pricing)
Absolutely ridiculous. Many Unity devs are saying they're switching engines on social media.
Shareholder greed is astounding
If I had a dollar for every time proprietary software users act surprised when it abuses them...
🤔 So what's stopping people from simply making games under the free license and selling them anyway without paying Unity ridiculous taxes and fees?
Also now would be a great time to just use Godot and be done with it.
Licenses and copyright laws. When you make a game with Unity, you're using proprietary code from Unity which has a license stating that the free version can only be used under certain circumstances. You'd be braking this license agreement if you distribute a game outside those conditions
