Unity is Floundering
Unity has announced that as of January 2024, games that surpass a yearly threshold of revenue and installs will be forced to pay 20 cents per install. Not per sale - but per install. This opens up so many potential issues surrounding things like Game Pass, Epic Game Store freebies, piracy, demos, bundles, re-installing games, "install-bombing", and more. It even has some developers worried that they could potentially owe Unity more money than they actually make from the game! It's a baffling decision and the deal completely stinks for indie game makers.
