      Ahoy my comrades, I have an amazing news for you!
      World leading game engines changed their price politics!

      Unreal Engine 4 и CryEngine moved to "EaaS" platform (Engine as a Service)
      it is mean that both engines (in the same way as Unity for the last year) moved to the month subscription.

      Have a look what does it mean in raw digits:

      UNITY:
      Unity Pro – $75
      iOS Pro – $75
      Android Pro – $75
      Team Licence – $20
      —————————-
      Total: $245 p/m for ideal collection. Obviously you can chop off some components but still, that is ideal indie team bundle.

      UNREAL ENGINE 4:
      $19 p/m
      What do u get:
      UT4 – Game Engine itself
      original source code of UT4 engine on GitHub’е
      Supported Platforms: Win/Mac/iOS/Android/Web – all included
      ——————————————————–
      Total: $19 p/m + 5% Epic royalty fees from gross income

      CRYENGINE:
      $9.99 p/m and no any royalty fees
      Supported Platforms: PC/Consoles/iOS/Android (possible more)
      More info in May
      ——————————
      Total: $9.99 p/m

      Looks like we have new Game Engine winner = CryEngine!!!
