![]() The aesthetic feels quite dated and although the layout is similar to BB regarding the scene, assets and effects panel placement, it still feels quite convoluted/complex. It pays homage to many design programs so the user doesn't feel too far removed from their other work environments, lessening the learning curve. The dark styling looks great and I like that it doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel. There was no major intro to what it was capable of and I was left to dig around and search for tutorials which made for slow progress. There wasn’t any noticeable on-boarding I experienced. The help panel is also great to get familiarised with the UI. It was perfect for engagement as I could experience first hand capabilities of the engine and ultimately get inspired. I found the demo games to be extremely helpful in that they gave me instant gratification that I had made progress from the offset. My aim for this post is to highlight some pros and cons I’ve experienced with the hope that there will be some productive cross-pollination as fundamentally the goals for both Unity and Buildbox are the same… to help people make kick-ass games. I would like to add that having worked with both now, I appreciate that they are completely different engines, serving different game styles for different audience types. Unity is an obvious choice for anyone serious in wanting to learn game dev, especially as it’s deemed an industry standard (I had already heard about it before I embarked on game dev myself actually which says a lot) but Buildbox is a really interesting product so I decided to try it out as it’s a relatively new kid on the block and presents a more simplistic approach to game creation, which was perfect for a newbie like me. This was to gauge the nuances between the two more accurately and ultimately highlight what would best suit my style of creating as I pursue a full-time career in game design. To draw a true comparison I decided to work with two ‘engines’ on the same project in unison. We also check the forums as well.First of all, apologies for the long post but I thought I’d share my personal experience and hopes for Buildbox now that I’ve been using it for a few months.
