This is for developers mostly. I don’t want to spoil much, the Open Source alternative Godot seems to beat Unity in a spectacular way, at least looking at the performance differences (for development and ingame). I hope this community is the right place to share this video.

Video description:

I created a basic horror game in Unity and then recreated it in Godot to find out which engine comes out on top. I’ve conducted a bunch of tests, such as install size, project load time, and frame rate, and I’ve shared the results of those tests here.

    I think the last hurdle for Godot is going to be the marketplace. Sure you can do anything you need to do but do you always have the time to? Hard for a lot of devs to give up access to such a large base of drop-in solutions. I think Godot will get there eventually though given its trajectory.
