SpatialOS developer Improbable has published \u201ca final statement on SpatialOS and Unity\u201d with the goal of summarizing the last day\u2019s worth of public back-and-forth between it and Unity. In the post, the company calls for Unity to clarify recent changes to its Terms of Service that have seemingly put Unity-based games that utilize SpatialOS at risk.<\/p>\n
The post, which can be read in its entirety on Improbable\u2019s website<\/a>, reiterates its original argument that changes to Unity\u2019s Terms of Service make it so that any owner or user of a managed service (like SpatialOS in this case) can be potentially found in breach of Unity\u2019s terms, despite Unity’s informal assurances<\/a> that this is not the case.<\/p>\n Improbable has already been found in violation of Unity\u2019s terms (a violation the company refutes in this latest post) and had its Unity licenses revoked as a result. So while Unity says that the TOS changes don\u2019t affect individual game developers with live or in-production SpatialOS games, Improbable says that, with its Unity access cut off, it is no longer able to legally support those projects, fix Unity-centric bugs, or improve the service for those devs.<\/p>\n
