低調の美國生活

繼上次2012年3月-4月的限時免費 這次乾脆來一次永久免費(?) 重點如下：

• 發到Android/iOS上,免費 (Unity Basic version, 就是遊戲一打開會出現Unity logo的那個版本)
• 之後等Winodws8整合進Unity中之後,免費 (Black Berry也是 但我不會去碰 所以不說了)

大致上基本版的功能對於開發中小型遊戲是相當夠用了 大部份Pro版的功能是相當高級的功能 想知道更詳細的差異可以看這邊基本版與Pro版的比較

下載使用方式

很簡單 到Unity官網下載安裝完成後 打開Unity >File >Build Settings >直接選Android選項 >Switch Platform就可了 連密碼認證都不用

PRESS RELEASE
Unity Empowers Games Industry with Free Mobile Publishing Tools

Malmö, Sweden – May 21, 2013 – Unity Technologies, provider of the Unity multi-platform engine and development tools, is pushing the democratization of game development further than ever before by making its basic mobile tools completely free to independent developers and small studios. Starting today, Unity’s gigantic indie developer community can publish their games and apps to iOS and Android in the build menu. Publishing options for additional supported mobile platforms, such as BlackBerry and Windows Phone 8, will be included at no additional cost once they are released.

Unity, the most adopted game engine, holds a central place in the videogame industry for driving the explosive growth in independent studios. By making basic add-ons tools completely free that previously cost $800, Unity is widening the path for developers looking to take steps towards creative and fiscal freedom. Individual developers and small studios using the free version of Unity can commercialize their games without buying licenses or sharing their revenues with Unity.

“We were able to make Unity free for the web and for desktop computers a while ago, but have been dreaming of doing the same for mobile for what seems like forever,” said David Helgason, CEO, Unity Technologies. “Mobile games development is possibly the most dynamic and exciting industry in the world, and it’s an honor to be able to help so many developers be so successful in fulfilling their visions and in building their businesses.”
With a high-powered engine rendering the most visually stunning mobile games, a deep and intuitive editor for fast-paced development, and ability to deploy across a multitude of mobile platforms, Unity has become the number one development tool for game developers.
In 2012, Game Developer Magazine conducted a survey that found 53% of mobile developers were using Unity and Apple named 17 Unity-authored mobile titles to their “Best of” awards including The Room which was named Game of the Year on iPad.
