Unity’s Runtime Fee debacle cost it the trust of several indie developers, and led to Slay the Spire 2 being made in Godot.

    Doesn’t STS run on Java, not Unity?

      StS2 was being developed in Unity iirc, and they moved to Godot for that new game (and possibly also future games?).

      Don’t know what engine they used for STS, but apparently they were making STS 2 on Unity:

      At the time, it said it’d made much of Slay the Spire II in Unity, but would still migrate to a different engine if Unity stuck to its guns.

      Perhaps they were saying they started on unity and decided to migrate to Godot instead
