What is Unity?

Unity is a real-time development platform designed to build, manage, monetize, and grow interactive 2D and 3D content for mobile devices, tablets, PCs, consoles, virtual reality, and augmented reality devices.

The company behind the Unity platform is Unity Software, Inc., a publicly traded company on the NYSE under the symbol “U.” Unity has experienced rapid growth in the last few years, with almost three billion users and approximately 70 percent of the top 1,000 games built on their platform. Unity products have interoperability across third-party partner platforms, operating systems, and applications. The gaming market is the most important part of the Unity business.

Mobile Game Development Applications

In the gaming market, the ultimate goal is to build games that provide immersive and engaging experiences, connecting users with content and other users while also adapting to their feedback and behavior. Most gaming apps are created with graphics expressed in 3D shape and depth, allowing virtual and augmented reality.

Creating apps in Unity lets designers visualize and edit 2D and 3D content simultaneously with other creators. Building and operating mobile games with Unity provides the flexibility to deploy across many platforms, serving the specific needs of each product.

Unity’s software development engine has a suite of technologies that allow designers to add components and configure content dynamically and interactively within the application, compiled for deployment in the Unity runtime. Then the content is rendered interactively in real-time on user devices and deployed on any supported platform.

You can create apps in Unity that run on Android and iOS devices just by installing modules and SDKs for Android or iOS development. Unity allows changing to any other platform simply by configuring the build settings and API settings. Then you can start coding using an IDE program such as Visual Studio, Android Studio, or Xcode. Unity is a cross-platform game engine and can run in iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, PlayStation, etc.

Unity libraries are built using C# (C-Sharp) code. Although Unity can operate with other object-oriented scripting languages, C# is the preferred language. This is because scripts are attached to objects and by Unity. JavaScript and C++ are also known to be excellent choices, but we suggest going with C#.

Mobile game development applications can leverage the Unity platform in a modular architecture that includes sets of solutions.

Create Solutions to create, edit, run, and deploy content:

  • Tools for building Unity apps
  • Custom scripting tools
  • High-definition render pipeline
  • Animation, graphic, and audio
  • User interface, navigation, and networking
  • Machine Learning algorithms for creation and edition

Operate Solutions to grow and engage user base (Run and Monetize):

  • Optimize content performance
  • End-user engagement analytics
  • Monetization solution to maximize content revenue potential
  • Content delivery and back-end management
  • Optimization of end-user acquisition

 

Cloud-Enabled Tools and Services

Cloud computing and bandwidth have dramatically increased processing power and storage, supporting and enabling the growth of immersive and interactive content that has benefited the gaming industry. Our mobile gaming developers have experience integrating with cloud infrastructure to leverage on-demand resources and gaming solutions, opening opportunities to developers and publishers of any size. Game apps running in the cloud can reach millions of players, with the potential to become global games. Apps talk to front-end services and game servers, delivering multi-player gaming experiences, analytics, scaling for peak events, and live events.

Mobile Game Development —Project Deployment

Game infrastructure management is a key aspect of a gaming project, due to the many technical aspects such as server configurations, game server clusters management, server fleet orchestration, location rules, latency optimization, realms, game states, Kubernetes, virtual machines, and points of presence (PoP). Also, computing resources must be capable of deploying around the world in order to avoid latency problems.

Game creators are able to engage users, run, and monetize content across third-party content distribution platforms. Developing an app within the Unity ecosystem gives access to a large user base that helps the acquisition and monetization of end-users. In addition, leveraging Machine Learning end-user acquisition products for advertising improves target accuracy and profits.

Trending Industries for Unity Products

The high demand for real-time 3D content is creating new use cases in other industries as well (in addition to gaming), with new forms of content emerging in autonomous driving, manufacturing, film making, building design, augmented reality, and e-sports.

Static 2D content is evolving to 3D virtual objects rendered in real-time that are instantly responsive to actions and graphics, showing their shape and allowing various viewing angles.  Interactive real-time 3D is impacting numerous industries, and new product developments are occurring at an unprecedented rate. Thousands of projects using Unity are launched each day.
