I hope to see more games actually come out for Linux using this engine in the future, it's the Engine that powers Oil Rush (the only Unigine powered game currently on Linux that I know of).

Some really awesome effects that have been added, especially the particle lighting. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

the engine seems to be able to do a lot but somehow it simply is not used that much, that seems a shame but i guess developers seem to have a reason to ignore it? even wasteland using another engine for linux that still iks in beta

It seems to mostly be that the development tools are harder to understand and use than for some other engines.

Yeah, this is the impression that I get (or maybe more that the tools aren't quite as mature as say, the UDK or Unity stuff is).

I was considering Unigine for a project I have on the go, but at the end of the day, their licences are a bit much for my budget.
