#2Sadly, you still have to fork out the full $1500 for the dark UI skin ;)
Having full access to render textures and framebuffer stuff is a godsend though. Looking forward to experimenting with the audio as well.
They also seem to be setting up a discount program for the Asset Store, as well as a cloud build system (for mobile/web only so far, though).

#3Does that mean it supports Oculus? The previous Personal version didn't.

It does, and the previous version actually did support Occulus. They released a free plugin for it (the free version of Unity) a few months ago.

#6I absolutely love unity. I've been playing with it on and off for the past few years and it has been surprisingly easy for me to pick up. The free version has a pretty spectacular feature set.
I've had a lot of fun with 2d mode- as a learning project I recreated the Monkey Island I Melee Island scenes with mixed sprites from Monkey Island II. Such a blast re-creating a game from my childhood. I really need to find more time for this stuff.

#7I was debating over trying out Unreal vs Unity last night. Unreal was looking more capable in its free version than Unity 4 Free, but I would prefer to learn C# over C++. This release makes it an easy choice to give Unity a whirl!

#8It seems this news is a direct reply to yesterday's move from one of their competitors, Epic's Unreal Engine 4 announced to be free* to use.

#9Nice response to Unreal Engine price change. Now the hard part is trying to pick which one to learn and use. Competition is a good thing.
