RimWorld migrates off Unity to custom engine

Original: Wow. Rimworld has migrated off Unity to a custom engine. Unity really fucked themselves. https://www. youtube.com/watch?

The colony sim RimWorld has switched from the Unity game engine to a custom-built in-house engine. The move is being discussed as a significant loss for Unity, with commenters arguing the company has damaged its standing among developers. RimWorld developer Ludeon Studios confirmed the transition, joining a wave of studios rethinking their reliance on Unity's tooling.

Why now: Gamers and developers are reacting to a high-profile studio abandoning Unity following the engine maker's controversial pricing and licensing decisions.
