basically making an MIT licensed framework/game engine that ticks all the boxes of Unity3D with a focus on performance.

shit, i think i need to save that and never see it again.

Considering that many of Unity 3D's features are present in other game engines, you should be fine. Just don't go about copying their API or anything.

>>61358902
Yeah you should be fine unless you'll try to make a drop-in replacement

Also, no offence but if you're planning to compete with Unity, you won't succeed unless you have a competent team and a business plan

lolgoodluck

I'm doing it mainly because I don't like their licensing model and I want to make something for people who feel the same. I realize documentation and the whole ecosystem of content/scripts is something that I can't match.

I don't think you comperhend how complex this problem is (delivering a generic 3D engine)
Pretty much every mature game engine came from a studio, hell, even open source community failed to deliver one
