Unreal Engine 3 comes to Flash                       

                                October 4, 2011                                Unreal Engine, Unreal Insider                       

                                               
                                                                                                        Ok, this is officially our week!
        Today in Los Angeles our CEO & founder, Tim Sweeney, appeared on stage at the Adobe Max event to demonstrate Unreal Engine 3 running in Flash.
        We’ve been working closely with Adobeon this technology for quite some time and today we are revealing it publicly.  A few months ago when we decided we would do a demo for this event, we weren’t sure what we were going to show. The first content we decided to try in Flash was “Epic Citadel” and it ran amazingly well – better than we expected it would, considering how early on this was.  But we began thinking that maybe a demo of content designed for mobile was setting expectations too low and we should aim higher.

                                                                                So what did we do?  We chose as our demo a fully playable level from Unreal Tournament 3 and it turned out to look even better than the version we shipped on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, with improvements like global illumination, better shadows, and god rays!  We’re not just talking about triple-A console quality on the web, we’re actually showing it onscreen, in a web browser, playing inside Flash!
       
        I can’t blame you if you couldn’t imagine a Facebook game at the level of Unreal Tournament 3 before today. But know now that Unreal Engine 3 with Flash support is the technology that will enable experiences like this and we’re just getting started.
        Can you tell I’m excited?
        I expect Unreal Engine 3 developers to be equally thrilled about this. UE3 has earned recognition as the best game engine* for PC, console and mobile platforms and now we’re adding the web via Adobe Flash support. With more than 1,000,000 UDK installs, and many of the worlds’ best developers using UE3’s professional-strength tools, we’re sure to see amazing uses for this down the road.
       
        There’s still some work to do before we can release this technology to developers and we’ll have more to talk about soon.  We plan to continue working closely with Adobe and the long-term goal is to be able to bring amazing Samaritan-like experiences, and beyond, to web browsers through Flash.
        So stay tuned for more news on this and other amazing developments here and on Facebookand Twitter. It’s going to be Unreal and you’re an Unreal Insider now!

Unity 3d也宣布支持flash了，看来WebGL的发展滞后了啊。

就以目前webGL这四分五裂的局面，谁敢用？
