Unity's new Runtime Fee will charge developers on a per-install basis.
"Vampire Survivor's edge was their price, now doing something like that is completely unfeasible," Sheffield wrote."Imagine releasing a game for 99 cents under the personal [Unity] plan, where Steam takes 30% off the top for their platform fee, and then Unity takes 20 cents per install, and now you're making a maximum of 46 cents on the dollar.
"The problem is that what they're charging for is something that does not make money. An install does not make us money." One big issue is the lack of clarity on how exactly the new policy will work: Ismail said the only thing developers have to go by at this point is Unity's public statement. In response to the backlash, Unity repeated its initial claim that the new fee system"will only affect a small subset of current Unity Editor users," and that the"large majority" of users will continue to pay nothing.
Unity also said that it is"actively listening to and following your questions closely," and invited concerned developers to"discuss these changes" on its forums.
