Unity vs Unreal: Quantic Rift 3D engine selection

quantic_unreal

SebL ported a subset of Quantic Rift’s first scene to Unreal 3D engine and the visual result is really quite impressive and the first performances results are quite good, even in VR.

So we are now trying to create the same scene as the one we made under Unity but with Unreal engine to be able to select the best engine for our full FPS game.

That means not even porting all 3D scene but also porting all C# scripts that we have already achieve or integrated to blueprints or C++ code (FPS engine, lift animation, characters animation, destruction of objects, VR cam management…).

This is really not an easy task and we don’t really know, how long it will take as we are more used to Unity Engine but we want to know what we can get with that engine before creating the full game.

Color Match 3D for iOS

Color Match 3D is a color and shape recognition game.

It runs on IOS (iPad, iPhone) and also on PC/Windows and MacOSX and is available on the Apple Store in a Paid version or a Free/sponsored version.

It is aimed at a wide audience aged 4 to 120.
Under its relatively simplistic aspect, this game stimulates several different intellectual functions: recognition of primary colors and simple geometric shapes, reversed spatial memory, analysis, speed decision making but also risk assessment (mistakes make you lose points).
