While I don't think the forums filled with posts about every other game engine out there would be good. It's the users that add the real value and my guess is that many of us here have an interest in other game dev products in addition to Unity. But in the end that is all it is just a product. At the least to not come across like we are threatened or angered simply because someone is talking favorably about another product. Possibly preferring a more straightforward programming paradigm although for all we know he used composition and everything works similar to Unity in his dev environment.Ĭlick to expand.I know that. I am sure he could have used GMS or Unity to do it but he must have liked something better about the route he chose. Stardew Valley was created in C# and XNA. They can make anything as easy or as advanced as they want. But it just is a matter of personal preference.Īgain people can use whatever they want. Basically GMS seems focused on rapid 2D game creation. Of course, a person can build their own or use Tiled and write their own tileengine or get something from the store or simply not use tile maps at all. In Unity as far as I know there still isn't a built-in tile map editor and engine. I'd say it's probably just being able to more naturally connect with the GMS workflows and all of the integrated tools would play a big part in that.

It could be an artistic level difference I suppose. That implies a knowledge or skill level difference and from what I've seen Unity gets more first-time game devs than probably any other game engine. I don't think everyone using GMS are unable to handle Unity. A person can use whatever they want to get the job done.
