No Unity Runtime, No Runtime Fee - Using the Unity Editor to make Bevy Rust Games!  

You are a wizard!

I think very few people can truly understand exactly how hard these kinds of integrations are. This is straight up amazing work!

This is ingenious, would of never expected this to be even possible, I switched to rust+bevy to get away from C# and esoteric unity ECS and its other hacky solutions, bevy+rapier is a savage combo so far for me, I honestly didn't even notice not having an editor, as I usually construct scenes directly from code anyway, but the ability to see things when it isn't running is pretty great, will definitely give this a go for my next project!

That is some proper dark magic software engineering, impressive!

Awesome! Absolutely incredible integration, can't imagine Unity expected anything like this haha. Nicely done!

Interesting video! Not a game developer here, but have worked on Unity/Godot/Bevy for small projects. I never missed the editor in Bevy, in fact, I like all of the behaviour/layout in 'code', but that's just me. I also just love Bevy because of Rust and ECS. Great to see more Bevy content creators on youtube!

I don't think I would ever have though of something like this myself. Really cool idea and a good quality video, you deserve much more subscribers then you have now. Keep up the good work!

men this is amazing using bevy with either blender and unity, that's like perfect combo :D

This is heresy. I love it!

I honestly expected someone to do something similar with godot-as-editor since its open source and hackable. I didnt expect unity itself. Nice work.

This is absolutely incredible. I look forward to seeing what you do with this next!

SO FREAKIN COOL! Seriously, it's gonna take time for it to sink in how much I love this concept

This is super unique and excellent approach I've never seen before

You should use the Godot editor instead just in case Unity starts charging an Editor fee as well LOL

i would have expected more an integration in blender, or the approach to integrate the editor as bevy plugin - like there are already some attempts. but this is just amazing !!

Even the name (Bevity) is great! Thanks a lot for your work!!!

Amazing bro, never even thought that this might be possible

"...in case you are living under a rock..." that is mythical 😅

So nice! Hopefully it will convert more people to use Rust / Bevy

I still would prefer the vanilla bevy experience right now but I can appreciate hard work when I see one kudos to you mate

I'm just discovering bevy (and game dev in rust ) and I'd like its philosophy. I know unity, It's not my cup of tea, I prefer using Unreal or Godot from far, but the editor is good. The work you've done is brillant ! Thanks for the share 👍

This is really really cool! After the whole debacle, I was checking out alternatives and bevy was the one I've found the most intriguing by far! I hope you keep working on this!

Gonna keep betting on Bevy-specific editors because this looks like a headache waiting to happen but really cool project!

This is really cool! been thinking about this kind of thing for a while now but didn't really have the time to do it (you know... excuses :P) But your execution of looks really good, can't wait for how this thing would end up.

Hey wizard, it would be wonderful if you could sustain this project long term for the community, great job guy

Very impressive work

Haha you're insane! love it :D

you are a hero to this planet.

this is super cool! I wonder if it would be easier to expose the bevy presets through the unity toolbar

genius! made me smile

What a mad lad!

Its like magic nice work😂

Absolute mad lad.

Great Explained given that i did't get anything about Game Dev Part

That's a nice idea, to use other editors. Quite painful to create a new one. BTW: I'm pretty sure if you use Unreal or Unity "only" as your editor that you have to pay rev share. Basically as a user of Unity Personal you have to switch to Pro at $100k (or later on the next Unity 200k). So in any case, it is not a free tool in any context even if this would be used in a non-game context, let's say to render videos for commercials and you earn 100k as a PR person/company. Still, this in no concern if you don't hit any high gross revenue. Would be good with the Bevy Rust community to explore free 3D editors or - if you are very ambitious - go even for an open source community editor?

Ok, that's really cool.

Very cool, probably would work with other engines to give people a way to use the Unity editor with other engines. If you can make this a little more turnkey I bet1 you could become rich and internet famous

Very sneaky, I love it

Such an impressive job! I wonder why Unity, and not just use Godot? Afaik it's closer to ECS and open source, so maybe it would've been easier, and more direct instead of a hack, since, you know, it's open source.

Have you tried doing the same with the Fyrox Editor? Might be a more natural fit since Fyrox, like Bevy, is a free and open source game engine built in and for Rust.

How... did you even manage that!

This is so cool. Ultimate payback for Unity greed. "All your editor belong to us".

I am ALSO wondering "where the hell the bevy editor is."

Good video!

looks cool as a proof of concept, but i wouldn't use that to make a game, many things would be very hacky, i really recommend just learning bevy :))

Now try doing it with godot && bevy. Imagine great performance and features with great editor

sick

I dont get it. So why you are doing this? What adding something over the Unity?

What kind of sorcery is this???

Does it require rapier or can we use avian3d?

why

I meaaaaaaaan. It sounds like you should just write an editor for your engine instead.

This is really impressive ❤ ! But i wonder about the legality of it 🫣
