Introducing Unity 7 - built for a faster-moving, more open industry where creators, cross-functional teams, and coding agents can seamlessly collaborate across every stage of the development cycle. Unity 7 will enter early Beta testing in December, with the Full Release scheduled for Q1 2027.

Hey #GameDesign hive mind, need your help please - can you think of games in which combos are a key part of gameplay and it is well done UX wise in visuals, audio cues,UI etc? I'm making a twin stick shooter which involves combos and rewards and looking for inspo. #gamedev

Started playing a big of Hellblade II the other day, and that first level really inspired me to see if I could get a similar vibe in Unity with a handful of megascans and a bit of HAZE 🌫 Really dig the results, especially for ~1.5 hours of messing around 👀 #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity

Help me find this game from my feed will ya, it was a black and white Cult of the Lamb-like game same cult-themed idea but the perk was you could draw in blood for some reason. It’s a one word title, I was captivated by the minimalist style. I know you’re out there devs. #pitchyagame #indiegame

Climbing 🧗 is a little tricky at first, but it's really fun when you're use to it. Chaotic but fun.🤸 #indiegame #gaming #videogames #gamedev #madewithunity

A beauty in voxel. Good work Tom! #madewithunity

After years of work, I'm very proud to release my debut game "Super Space Arcade" to the public today. It's a short loveletter to simpler times, as I remember them. I hope it brings you joy. #gamedev #indiegamedev #madewithunity

Working on different models/animations for item chests in ABYSS X ZERO, to better suit the context of what you'll find inside and the level they are in. (yes, even the last one is an item chest, technically) Now we just need a proper item collect jingle... #gamedev #lowpoly #madewithunity #axz

Another gem I’ve missed this year is Shroom and Gloom. Such a great mix of genres and the art style is lush! Bravo team ‘beam #madewithunity

it's fun coming up with enemies that dont explicitly attack you, but pose a challenge in other ways. these dudes are real annoying when combined with other tanks >:D #bombshellblitz #gamedev #madewithunity

Working on enemy AI. The standard path sends them on a straight line to their target, which looked very unnatural. Still far from finished, but it already looks much better. Simple changes, great improvements! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #strategygame #survivalgame #unity3d #gaming #scifi

I've been working on this little pond area. By now there are a lot of little effects playing together and I have to say I like the direction! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #unity3d #mazestalker

When a game can be both historically inspired and so polished and balanced that it feels really original, that’s magic. Props to this team this is so cool. #madewithunity

I've been more and more interested in lighting art for levels, so I tried my hand doing a relighting of the "Hidden Alley" scene from PolyHaven And then I watched a bit of Silent Hill f footage, so this happened 😅 It was a good use case for HAZE too 👀 #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity

Let's play "pretend you're a game studio picking your next project", especially if you are not a dev! Reply to this with your guess for the Big Videogame Thing of mid-2027. What's the genre, the aesthetic, big technology? I set a 25 months calendar alert. Let's check back how close everyone gets?
