ProtectMyGame

Overview

ProtectMyGame is a Windows protection suite for Unity 3D developers who want to deter cracking, cheating, and reverse engineering. It best suits teams protecting selected game logic while keeping public APIs or modding systems readable. Its combined obfuscation, executable protection, and resource packaging make it a focused choice, though the free tier is tightly capped.

Key features

Unity Obfuscator applies C# script obfuscation before compilation in the Unity Editor. Developers can download it through the Editor and have scripts obfuscated automatically during compilation, keeping the protection step within the Unity workflow. Selective obfuscation lets teams protect chosen methods while leaving public APIs and moddable systems readable. That is useful when anti-cheat logic, licensing, or core logic needs shielding without making interfaces or mod support opaque.

Code Protector encrypts executables, with compression and anti-tampering protection. Resource Packer packages files up to 2GB and supports automatic extraction and ZIP64. Together, the tools address scripts, executables, and resources, but the free plan's 200MB per-file cap limits how much of the packer's capacity a developer can use without Premium.

Pricing

Free forever costs nothing. It permits up to five protected files; Code Protector and Resource Packer are each capped at five files of 200MB maximum per file. Files remain available for 24 hours. This is suitable for a small, short-lived protection task, not a lasting file repository or a larger release workflow.

Premium is billed per month and includes unlimited files, Unity Obfuscator, all protection tools, a custom API key, and Unity 3D exclusive compatibility. The pricing display shows 9.99€ per month alongside 14.99€ with a 33% discount label; the plan price is custom pricing. Its higher file allowance and full toolset suit ongoing Unity protection, but developers should confirm the applicable monthly charge before choosing it.

Platforms

ProtectMyGame supports Windows and integrates through an SDK. The supported platform is Unity 3D, and Premium specifies Unity 3D exclusive compatibility, so it is not a broad cross-engine protection option.

Who it's for

ProtectMyGame fits Unity developers who want script obfuscation alongside executable encryption and resource packaging, especially when only selected methods need obscuring. The free tier can suit small jobs with short availability needs. Teams handling larger files or ongoing protection are better matched to Premium. Developers working outside Unity 3D, or those who need more than a 24-hour free file window, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Selective obfuscation can protect sensitive methods without obscuring public APIs or moddable systems.
• Pros: Script, executable, and resource tools are combined, with automatic obfuscation during Unity compilation.
• Cons: The free plan allows only five protected files and caps Code Protector and Resource Packer files at 200MB each.
• Cons: Free files are available for only 24 hours, and Premium's monthly charge needs confirmation.
• Cons: Unity 3D focus makes it a poor fit for developers seeking protection across other engines.

Verdict

Choose ProtectMyGame if you develop for Unity 3D and want selective script obfuscation, executable protection, and resource packaging in one toolset. Its strongest reason to choose it is the Unity-centered workflow and ability to protect targeted logic while keeping APIs and modding systems readable. Look elsewhere if you need broader engine support, longer-lived free files, or a confirmed Premium monthly price before committing.
