These versions are focused on developing video games for PC, Mac, and the Web through a plugin for viewing. However, in addition to these "basic" versions, there are additions that allow us to transfer our development to mobile devices, make a further outlay to obtain said license, and use these extra features in this tool. But it seems that the guys at Unity want to convince us that the outlay is worth it and allow the acquisition of a license utterly free of charge to develop for iOS and Android devices with the free version of their Unity 3D.
In addition to this tool, there are others on the market, perhaps more famous, such as UDK from Epic Games or CryEngine from Crytek. However, one of the advantages that we obtain with Unity 3D is that we are not anchored to Windows to carry out our developments since it has a version for both Windows and Mac.
Unity 3D provides us with a handy and complete visual editor with a few clicks; we can import our 3D models, textures, sounds, etc. and then work with them. It also includes the MonoDevelop development tool with which we can create scripts in JavaScript, C #, and a Python dialect called Boo to extend the editor's functionality, using the APIs it provides and which we find documentation along with tutorials and resources in its official website.
Also, if we are not very handy with 3D or we need resources for our games, in the application itself, we can access a store as if it were the App Store, where we will find a multitude of free and paid resources. We can even extend the tool through plugins that we will obtain in said store.
With this license that they provide us, we package our project for PC, Mac, Web, iOS, and Android. In the case of the last two creating a project with the source code, libraries, and necessary resources to process them, such as in the case of iOS, to be signed and uploaded to their respective stores. Keep in mind that the license they offer for Unity 3D in its free version will not have the features that the professional version offers.
