    Hi everyone! Someone pointed out to me that Unreal Engine changed their policy in 2020, meaning that you can now use their engine for free up until you earn your first $1.000.000 (earnings doesn’t reset yearly like Unity do) After that they take the 5% cut 🙂 This still means that Unreal Engine gets much more expensive than Unity if you use it in a larger professional capacity, but for smaller indie developers it makes it a lot more appealing. 🙂
    But again… pricing is just a small part of choosing between Unity and Unreal at this point, since smaller developers will essentially be able to make games for free in both engines. I recommend looking up comparison articles between the two engines if you are curious about Unreal vs Unity. 🙂
    Currently, most comparisons will tell you that Unreal has an slight edge when it comes to graphics, but Unity has a big edge when it comes to “beginner friendliness” and multiple platforms support. The only “hard advice” I have for you, is to start with Unity if you are completely new to game development. Sure… Some people will tell you they started with Unreal Engine, however I can promise you that the learning curve is a lot harder than when choosing Unity. 🙂
    So you essentially just “pick what suits you”. Both engines are capable of making stunning looking AAA games and both are used by professional developers today.
    Also, just to let you all know, I am planning on making tutorials again, but it is at my own pace which means there isn't going to be a fixed upload schedule. 🙂 I took a break from making tutorials a while back because I felt my subscribers had taken control over the channel, so now that I have taken back control 💪 I will be uploading whatever content I wish at whatever time I please. 😉 But just to clarify, I do have a dream to start on a Unity series, so that's what this video is the start to (at my own pace of course).

      My goal is to help people learn and understand, and not just "copy/paste". People who teach it faster than me, leave out important info because it's more important to them to keep videos a certain length, or because they are more concerned with just showing "how", and not "why". Many people with years of experience in Unity, would even argue that I'm cutting my videos short. 😉

    • @Dani_Krossing
      @Dani_Krossing  Рік тому

      You can publish games freely.🙂
      There are only two major downsides to not getting the paid version. You will have a Unity splash screen at the start of your game that says “made in Unity”.
      And if you plan on making A LOT of money on your games, then you will have to get the paid version if you make above a certain amount during a 3 month period. The amount you are allowed to make for free is on the Unity website, and I remember it being quite a lot you are allowed to earn before having to get the paid version.
      So basically, you can publish as many games as you want, if they are all free and you don’t earn anything on them. 🙂

    I already have VS Community & Android Studio. Should I download these again in Unity?

    Do you need to connect it to Visual Studio? What if making something very basic just to learn? What exactly is connecting to Visual Studio doing for us? Thanks

      VS is just the “standard” when it comes to IDEs. You can just connect a different IDE or text editor if you want. 🙂 So you are not forced to use VS.

      Yes. Just make sure you install the Unity intellisense plugin. 🙂
