Independent developers who want to make use of Epic Games' popular Unreal Engine tools can now do so for free, as long as their revenue stays below $50,000. Epic's move could provide a springboard for small, short-on-cash dev outfits, including those whose sights are aimed at casual games on the iPhone and Android platforms.
Epic Games has created award-winning series like "Gears of War" and "Unreal Tournament," as well as a popular proprietary development platform. That platform, Unreal Engine, doesn't only appear in Epic titles, though. The company has allowed other developers to license it -- for a fee.
