I suggest you also pay attention to when a game’s development was begun as it’s no simple task to switch engines mid development. Still, your wallet, your call.

Remember when I said "I'm giving the devs who had projects going before then a grace period?" or "if you're dumb enough to use Unity for a new game AFTER THE SHIT THEY PULLED.

Developers or studios that have been working on a game prior to the shitfest are grandfathered in, but I'll not have anything to do with projects that began after the whole price tier shenanigans.
