sex toy company: here have free hardware so you can implement it in your library
me: oh nice thanks!
me later: wait a sec. you encrypted your comm protocol, your app is an il2cpp unity app on android, and you gave us no protocol docs. did you just pay me in dildos to security test your app?
me: oh nice thanks!

If you're using Unity 2022.3.X and need a memory usage boost in your il2cpp builds, consider upgrading to 2022.3.55f1+!
We're talking 50-80 MBs in some projects!

my best guess is "epic releases a unity for fortnite framework that uses il2cpp extern fuckery to build unity games /built with specific fortnite components integrated/ for export to fortnite". i expect it to be limited and for converting pre existing projects to be realistically impossible

a lot of successful unity games shipped without il2cpp and still nobody stole them. it seems source code or assets is not the most valuable thing in a project

Also there’s ways to decompile il2cpp, though I haven’t personally tested them

On device IL2CPP method hot reloading is going to be incredibly useful - as would asset reloading. I’m curious to see how much of the asset hot reload was custom pipeline stuff or just a feature that the editor could do.

Switching to D3D11 from D3D12 brought the memory usage down from a very silly 400MB, to a less silly 180MB. D3D11 combined with IL2CPP makes for a blazing fast start time, very close to what a custom engine in something like C/C++ would be like.
