Thanks for the feedback, we obviously need to improve the amount of info on the site. I would say the biggest pros compared to Unity is that you can change your games while they run on your mobile devices, without needing to rebuild/restart which gives an iteration-cycle of about 1 second. We have also specialized the toolset of 2D (tiled graphics etc), but the engine is 3D behind the scenes. We are a service so the pricing is completely different. The biggest con is of course that Unity has been around for much longer so they have a bigger feature set, larger community and proven technology. But we will get there in time. :)

Thank you for the clarification :)
