About

Unity was a video game being developed by Jeff Minter and Lionhead Studios for the GameCube. It was in development from the beginning of 2003 until its cancellation at the end of 2004. It was to feature Jeff Minter's trademark psychedelic graphical style, meshed with an interactive music component. The music was to be provided by someone who was well-known and appropriate for the game's style, revealed in 2023 to be Plaid.

Unity was so highly anticipated that the UK games magazine Edge featured it on its February 2003 issue cover, with a full 8 page preview in the same issue. However, the project slipped off the release schedules soon after.
