It seems that Unity has walked back a lot of the atrocious bits of their attempt to exploit developers. There isn't really anything to be done regarding rebuilding trust aside from time and I think that will be what really hurts Unity in the long run.

Unity announces its revamped pricing model

Unity has introduced a revamped version of its new pricing model. The updated pricing scheme arrives a little more than a week after the disastrous original announcement that infuriated developers.

The Verge

We wanted to create a new achievement for our games called "Bankrupt" where you have to uninstall and re-install the game 10 times. But then we noticed we couldn't afford it.

@gamingonlinux I couldn't agree more with the sentiment in the article. The trust between Unity and developers has been shattered. As indie developers, we invest significant time and effort into our projects. It's disheartening to work with an engine when we can't be sure if its rules will remain stable, potentially leading to major financial challenges down the road. 🎮💔 #UnityRuntimeFee #GameDev

Hey guys whats up! So some big stuff happened in the last week or so eh? I received 2 additional positive reviews that offered actual constructive criticism and feedback (I appreciate it, folks! Hoping for more). I've also fixed one of the bugs you reported, hoping to get to the rest) And... Just in case you didn' t know, DR4X is made with unity. Now that this is cleared up...

The choices UI changing may seem trivial, but comfort is important when playing a #visualnovel !

also, controller support, handy when showing the game at cons !

Or, you know, for people who play with controllers.
also #unityruntimefee might kill this game.
