When you are going to develop a game, choosing a game engine can be the key to avoiding a lot of
problems, especially in long development times.
There are many factors that we can take into account.
Licence, price, community, scope of the project or what kind of game we want to develop.
D9
In this poll from statista we can see the leading game engines.
This poll was conducted in the UK in 2014.
You can see how unity is breaking the market.
D10
Very versatile game engine and requires little time to become proficient in game developing.
Supports a lot of gaming platforms, as you can see here.
Development Languages are UnityScript, Boo and C#
In next Unity versions developers are planning to put in deprecated UnityScript,
In Unity 5.0 developers decided to drop support documentation for
Boo, but Boo scripts still work.
So the decision should be to pick C#.
D11
In summary, Unity is free until your game works on the market, then you pay for
the software.
D12
In this slide we see how unity GUI looks like
D13
Here are some games developed with unity
D14
Unreal is known for having very realistic graphics
Also Supports a lot of gaming platforms
Development Languages are C++, and BluePrint
D15
Avaliable for free, but you pay a percentage of your earnings after three thousand dollars,
per product every quarter.
D16
The Blueprint visual scripting system is great to design gameplay logic, no programming skills
required.
A Blueprint class is asociated with C++ .
Many of the games typical functions are already implemented
You can implement more of this blocks
D17
Some games made with unreal
D19
Game maker studio is an alternative for people without programming skills, to develop games
2D games.
D20
Is under Proprietary license. You pay depending on your target platform
D21
As an alternative Open source is a powerful low level framework, it dosnt have GUI editor, so we
only recommend it for 2D games
LibGDX allows java virtual machine languages to use the library
D22
It is maintained by the community
You can publish your games without paying anything
