State of Game Technology Roundtable
summary
A 2024 industry survey with 576 respondents across 64 countries shows game engines moving into film LED volumes, virtual production, automotive HMI and defense training, with surprising growth of Godot for smaller studios and a Unity-driven migration spike. Data names top pain points—funding (~33% for indies), collaboration for AAA, CI absent in many small teams—and tool trends: Perforce still dominant for large assets while Perforce vs Git splits workflows, and ML helps summarization more than reliable code gen.
