A lizard and a bat? We are so back! Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2448020/YookaReplayleeWe are very pleased to share with you one of the exciting...
They’re remaking Yooka Laylee, and dare I say it looks good.
3D models aren’t tied to Unity, so all 3D models could probably easily be imported to Unreal.
Unity also has a 3D model exporter, so they could have used that to get all 3D models positions into Unreal within minutes.
E: still stuff like animations and game logic obviously take more time. Not trying to say that porting a whole game can be done in minutes, just the 3D Models.
Yes, there are many basic file types that would be easy. That said, 3D models and raw image textures are only a few basic examples of game assets. Many like customized materials or maps just save in an engine-specific format.
Hence the comment suggesting they have tools that at least closely convert what someone has from Unity.
Just speculation on my part, but perhaps they are using a different engine. The original was made in Unity, this one looks like it was made in Unreal.
I wonder how many tools Unreal has written to convert assets over from Unity setups…

Ah, probably another Slay The Spire 2 type situation then. Unity really screwed the pooch on that one.
