Unity Plus costs $35/mo for 50 concurrent users, and UNET was a fumble. Grid (https://www.planimeter.org/grid-sdk/ https://www.planimeter.org/grid-sdk/) is free, and was built multiplayer-first. The last time I checked, I couldn't build a project OOTB and in 5 minutes have a multiplayer game to mod and hack on. That's been a feature I've provided for years. I think the appeal of PBR workflows for 3D games is what Unity and Unreal capitalize on, but for 2D hobbyists, there are much better solutions with far less overhead, and fewer expenses.
