Allegorithmic's Substance to Be Integrated in the Unity Platform, Giving Developers Faster Path-to-Market and Reduced Download Sizes
SAN FRANCISCO, CA - September 21, 2010 - Unity Technologies, provider of the Unity development platform for highly interactive 3D content on the web, iPhone, iPad, PC, Mac, Android, Wii™, Xbox 360 and PlayStation®3, today announced the start of a technical collaboration and business partnership with Allegorithmic. Unity Technologies and Allegorithmic will work together on making the world's closest integration of Allegorithmic's Substance Engine into the Unity Engine and Editor. This will be available to all Unity 3 users later this year, free of charge.
"I love Allegorithmic's tools and the flexibility they provide. The ability to both have tiny texture distribution sizes and high-level parameters for dynamic tweaking is the perfect killer combo," said Nicholas Francis, Unity Technologies' Chief Creative Officer. "Seasoned developers will love the ability to stream huge levels with textures only taking up a few Kb, while newcomers can use the high-level tweaking tools and pre-made substances to get off the ground fast."
"Unity Technologies is clearly the number one game engine when it comes to online and mobile distribution, and in that way they are a perfect fit for us," said Dr. Sebastien Deguy, CEO of Allegorithmic. "Getting into Unity's massive penetration means our technology is now well on the way to becoming a new game industry standard. We are looking very much forward to seeing exactly how fantastic a tie between our products can be. Now both our development teams are committed to making it not only happen, but be truly great."
All features of Substance will be fully leveraged from within Unity Editor's authoring environment, with tight integration into the existing texturing and world-building workflow. Additionally, a range of Unity-exclusive substances will be available as well as special deals on production-ready pre-made libraries and workflow painkillers.
