The developer behind BallisticNG, a sci-fi racer inspired by PlayStation classic WipEout, has announced that it’ll no longer be porting the game to Nintendo Switch in the wake of the recent controversy surrounding Unity.
After Unity announced sweeping changes on September 12 that were widely criticized and met with massive backlash from game developers, the company then scaled back on its initial plans to charge studios a runtime fee per game install.
These issues, combined with certain requirements from Nintendo, have resulted in developer Neogenesis canceling its planned port of BallistNG, a game that has an “overwhelmingly positive” reception on Steam. “Nintendo has a rolling Unity version requirement for game releases and we’re already behind the threshold by two years,” Neogenesis explained in a blog post on its Steam page.
