Here's a good read for anyone trying to adopt a game engine. Someone sort of brought it up at the just concluded G3 Mobile Games Developer Meetup in Lagos. I must warn you, only slightly seasoned game developers will understand most of what is said. New and eager game developers might struggle a bit. Note, the write up does not juxtapose Unity with the other engines. It just gives some instances of what unity is good at and what it is improving at along side other popular free tier engines. If you are strictly looking at 2D, I'd say you should give Defold (King's own Engine) a try. I prefer it to Corona SDK, simply because an Editor can make your life easy. Will write a blogpost about this in the coming months. Write-up

This post is long overdue, but it's better late than never, right? Anyways, writing this was supposed to be like the 2016 year in review post but honestly nothing much happened last year that I really took cognisance of, and I also wanted to try another style for this write-up. For 2017, I'd be focusing on major events, indies and the remaining pioneer gaming studios still in business. So then, let's get right to it. First up is... Maliyo 2017 Review Maliyo had a solid year in 2017 with the launch of MonaPay and the Maliyo Marketplace . After their comeback in 2016 and my numerous chats with Hugo Obi (Manager/CEO), they seem to look like they've shifted from their previous endeavours; making locally relatable mobile games. Hugo has always talked about two major challenges facing the local industry; Discoverability and Monetization, and last year looked like the right time for Maliyo to solve those problems. With the Maliyo Marketplace, Nigerians can n
