I want my… I want my… I want my Web 3D

May 13th, 2009

I’ve been trying to get Torque game of my own. Move back to Director or move on to Unity.

I don’t know much about Unity, I did play a few games made with it, and I’ve heard buzzing Garage Games’ forum about it. Apparently it’s a competitor… yet it can do web based 3d.

To be far Torque can, technically. But that’s Torque 3D. Which I have to pay $1,000 for that ability. That’s why it took me forever to be able to afford Director. So back to Director. Strangely enough, my biggest beef with doing browser based games with Director is the lack of gamepad/controller support. Sure, most people on home computers don’t use gamepads, but that’s mainly because no one supports it.

I can’t move to Unity3D because I would have to start everything all over again. That would be another 3 years down the toilet.
