It is also worth noting the main Engine Dev also does regular Twitch streams of him developing Jupiter Hell. His Twitch username is EpyonCF (https://www.twitch.tv/epyoncf [External Link]). I find this really adds to the credibility of a kickstarter project as it becomes very transparent about progress.

I was really excited for F1 2015, but the mixed reviews meant it sat on my Wishlist until it dropped to a price I felt comfortable paying. It never did come down enough, and by the beginning of 2017 it didn't seem worth buying an outdated F1 game with mixed reviews, so it came off my wishlist.

I probably wouldn't have played it much anyway. As much as I like the idea of playing racing games, in reality I suck at them and hardly play for more than 30min before getting frustrated and stopping.

The number of single monitor setups is surprising. I always just assumed most people had dual monitors these days, which then always confused me why games were so bad at handling dual monitors.

Quoting: pete910Trouble is with UE4 now accessible by joe blogs and from the messing I've done the last few days I think Unity has a serious uphill battle for the "Goto engine"

I have no idea about the money/licensing side of ether so I guess that would make a big difference

I was/am all aboard the UE4 train, but bit by bit as I use the Unity editor more, I find myself being swayed to think it has a brighter future on Linux than UE4. UE4 seems to only be on Linux because it is open source and there are non-Epic guys working hard to make it a reality. From Epic's perspective, I don't think they really care about UE4 on Linux.

Unity on the other hand seem to be trying to make Unity Editor work on Linux the same way it does on Windows/OSX. In Unity I can use the market place, and I can cross compile for WebGL or Android. Epic seems to have given up on the idea of having the Launcher on Linux, making the marketplace in-accessible, and cross-compilation is also not supported yet.
