Following Unity’s massive pricing gaffe, GameMaker is doing something different
In the wake of Unity’s massive pricing controversy, which saw game developers boycotting the engine, GameMaker is doing something different with its technology: making it free for all non-commercial use. GameMaker is also switching is PC-based commercial license to a one-time fee of $99.99. Console game developers will still need to purchase the “enterprise” license, which is a monthly $79.99 fee, or $799.99 yearly.
