The Toronto game developer Get Set Games has announced the launch of their latest app Mega Blast. It is the latest addition to their popular series including Mega Run and Mega Jump. Mega Blast will also be the series’ first 3D game as well as being the first to be developed using Epic’s Unreal Engine 4. Epic’s Unreal Engine 4 has recently switched from charging with a price tag to offering a royalty system.
The arrangement seems to keep both parties satisfied with Get Set Games receiving a grant of $18000 for its production and its outstanding use of the engine. Get Set Games Co-founder Derek van Vliet says that “Mega Blast is our first 3D mobile game, and Unreal Engine 4 has allowed us to make that transition with ease,”. “Having free access to the full source of the engine has been invaluable for debugging, extending our toolchain and optimizing Mega Blast for devices. The result is a game that we are extremely proud of.”.

The General Manager at Unreal Engine also had strong words to say about the team at Get Set Games as well as being impressed with Mega Blast. He believes that it’s rewarding to see the studio pick up Unreal Engine 4, create the game and be a positive player in the community. “We’re particularly impressed with the level of polish Get Set Games have achieved in a short span of time, and we hope the grant helps them cross the finish line even more easily and get Mega Blast onto mobile devices everywhere.” He said.
After 5+ years in development, we're excited ...
