I use Unity Platform to design games that are visually appealing. It's a cross-platform tool for both 2D and 3D game development, which is how I got started with it. The asset store is a huge help as we can buy game assets directly from there, saving a lot of time. The physics engine for realistic movement is also great. I love that using Unity we can create big animation-loaded games like those in the big industry. Being able to use C# or JavaScript for development adds flexibility, though C# is more common and popular. Real-time rendering with URP and HDRP render pipelines significantly enhances the development process. I appreciate that Unity has a strong, helpful community. If I'm stuck or have an error, I can reach out and get help from other users quickly, which is really beneficial during development. The engine itself is unique and easy to learn, making it a great choice for various projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful real time rendering and XR capabilities"

5/5

Describe the project or task Unity Platform helped with:

Unity is useful for creating AR/VR apps and mobile phone experiences with real time 3D rendering and XR plugins used. We also use it for high-end desktop powered 3d experiences for exhibitions and marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Unity Platform?

Modular approach to tools in the engine allowing us to pick and choose what things we want to use in projects and it is easy to quickly pull in a plugin or feature you need through the package manager. Powerful 3D rendering capabilities also allow us to make optimized 3d content that looks similar across low-end to high-end devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unity Platform?

Sometimes features can roll out before each other leading to incompatibility between plugins and tools if you are working with the newest tech. As we work in VR/AR a lot we find this issue affects us a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Unity Platform:

Try out the Unity Asset store for the tools and example packs there it will give you a good starting point for future projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Unity Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Apps for mobile, web, desktop, AR and VR across those devices also. For exhibitions we use it for real-time interactive displays and showroom screens that users can interact with the 3d rendered content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unity is a good teaching tool"

4/5

Describe the project or task Unity Platform helped with:

Unity helps me to teach students the basics of game design and development. We use the platform to simulate building worlds, teaching gravity and physics, and showcasing using different languages to code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Unity Platform?

I enjoy the robust nature of the program. It has a lot of add ons and versions to make sure you can get exactly what you need from the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unity Platform?

I dislike the constant updates and how vastly different the versions can change. If a student updates, it can cause serious problems to their project that even rolling back the version cannot fix completely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Unity Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving a new way to teach. I have realized that hands on experience is much more beneficial to students than lecture style. Also, with the pandemic, unity translate well across devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
