Wasn't Unity a Mac exclusive tool to start out? I know they have support for Windows at this point, and would understand if they've refocused on Windows since then.
- hurricaneSlider 6y agoUnity feels like it runs best on Windows to me. Metal bugs caused quite a few Unity issues for me when I was developing on a Mac. That was a year or so ago, so maybe the situation has improved. Also a lot of useful 3d content creation software is Windows only, or only supports CUDA acceleration, so implicitly rules out Mac from being a first class citizen (e.g. substance painter) Obviously not every game is the same, or needs fancy tooling. But Windows feels like it just works for game dev.
- Shared404 6y agoIt doesn't shock me that it run's best on Windows, and you should of course use whatever works for you. I'm sorry if I implied anything else. I have to agree. I love me some *nix (excluding Mac/iOS, actually), but game dev is the one thing I played with that just felt easier on Windows.
