Is c# mainly just used in this engine?

[–] GigglyBobble@kbin.social 87 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's probably a tiny fraction of the C#/dotnet ecosystem. But hobbyist meme creators mostly care about games, I guess.

[–] onizuka89@programming.dev 51 points 2 years ago

No, as other's have pointed out it's not. There are plenty of other areas to use it, even in other game engines. OP is just trying to make it seem funny by making the exaggerated narrative that it's the only use case for C#. If Boo was still around in Unity this joke would been accurate with that, don't think that was used anywhere else

No, C# is a general purpose language that Unity has a botched, outdated version of.

[–] PixxlMan@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Not at all. Unity's use of C# is pretty unconventional even. Not representative at all.

[–] Whirlybird@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago

Absolutely not. It’s used everywhere on the web and other places.
