Unity vs Unreal Engine
When it comes to game development, two of the most popular engines are Unity and Unreal Engine. Both of these engines have their own strengths and weaknesses and have been used to create some of the most popular games in the industry.
For starters, Unity is a game engine that is used to create both 2D and 3D games. It is a popular choice for indie developers because it is relatively easy to learn, is affordable, and has plenty of tutorials and resources available. Unity also has a wide range of features and tools, such as a powerful physics engine, a customizable rendering pipeline, and advanced particle systems.
Unreal Engine, on the other hand, is a powerful engine that is used to create AAA games. It is considered to be more complex than Unity, and is more expensive. However, it offers some of the most advanced tools and features, such as an incredibly realistic lighting system, an advanced particle editor, and a powerful physics engine.
In terms of visuals, both engines are capable of producing stunning visuals. However, Unreal Engine is generally considered to be more powerful, as it has a more advanced lighting system, more realistic materials, and more realistic post-processing effects.
When it comes to performance, both engines are capable of running games at smooth framerates. However, Unreal Engine is generally considered to be more powerful, as it can handle more complex scenes and textures.
In the end, the choice between Unity and Unreal Engine comes down to the type of game you are creating and your budget. If you are creating a 2D game or are on a tight budget, then Unity is probably the better choice. On the other hand, if you are creating a 3D game or have more money to spend, then Unreal Engine is likely the better choice.

Unity 3D - Gates of Ethernity AR Viewer
Gates of Ethernity AR Viewer is run on Unity 3d 2021.2.7. Unity enables us to directly call custom native functions written in C, C++, or Objective-C from C# scripts. The monster hunting and battles are coded in C#. For IOS, we will use PVRTC texture compression, as it is natively supported by iPhone/iPad devices. Audio source sound files are often converted to Vorbis, but for IOS, this will be overridden to MP# for improved performance. For Android, plug-ins are used to call Android functions written in Java/Kotlin directly from C# scripts, and Java functions are indirectly called less frequently. Ericsson Texture Compression (ETC) is the standard texture compression format on Android, with Unity typically using ETC1 for compressed RBG textures and ETC2 for compressed RGBA textures. On both mobile target platforms, optimization techniques such as occlusion culling are employed, disabling rendering of objects that are not seen by the camera due to being obscured by other objects.
