But some won’t consider it. I was 2 months into a project and abandoned it. I’m now knee deep into another project in Unreal. If this doesn’t go well, it’ll be Godot, or Bevy or Armory. Unity is dead to me. It’s still the same company run by the same board and I do not trust them.
Most don’t switch as they have in house skills that would cost to retrain. The real kicker is the big studios of the future that started their projects on Godot. Those Godot games that succeed (like Cassette Beasts or Brotato) may fund the big studios of the future, and you know their leads will be Godot specialists looking for Godot devs.
Other big studios may trial Godot, but when the seed is planted, the trees take 2 to 5 years to mature.
Too late, moved to Unreal.
If this doesn’t work out, Godot will be the next port of call.
I’ve been happy with it on Pixel 6a. It feels good to know my phone isn’t spying on every little thing I do.
You don’t, you can compile from source.
Unreal is a top class engine. Yes, it’s proprietary and you always have to be cautious, but right now, it’s an engine that delivers top features that can build great games and isn’t run by Unity. If you win big, you need to pay, but you know that going into it.
Godot is great and improving all the time but it needs maturity.
It was a head vs heart decision and the head won this time.
