Huatuo is a native C# hot-update solution for Unity that extends the il2cpp AOT runtime into an 'AOT + Interpreter' hybrid runtime, enabling dynamic assembly loading on all platforms including iOS and consoles. It implements a high-performance register interpreter and differential hybrid DLL technology so hot-updated code runs at near-native AOT performance with zero learning cost.

Use cases

• hot update c# code in unity games on ios without jit
• fix bugs in shipped unity game without app store review
• load c# assemblies dynamically in il2cpp builds
• run hot-updated game logic at near-native performance
• avoid lua-based scripting limitations in unity projects
• support reflection and inheritance across hot-update and AOT code

When to choose

• you need full C# feature support (reflection, multithreading, async) in hot-update code
• you want near-zero learning cost and no adapters or code generation
• you target iOS or consoles where JIT is restricted
• performance and memory of hot-updated code matter

When to avoid

• your project uses mono backend instead of il2cpp
• you need a simple scripting layer and can accept lua or other VM tradeoffs
• you require long-term vendor support - the project appears no longer actively maintained
