Chunity (ChucK for Unity) is a programming environment for the design of interactive audiovisual games, instruments, and experiences. It embodies an audio-driven, sound-first approach that integrates audio programming and graphics programming in the same workflow, taking advantage of strongly-timed audio programming features of the ChucK programming language and the real-time graphics engine found in Unity. In short, Chunity enables one to program ChucK inside the Unity game development framework, and provides mechanisms for communication between ChucK and C#/Unity. Chunity exists as a Unity plugin, and was originally described in a 2018 paper:

Jack Atherton and Ge Wang. Chunity: Integrated Audiovisual Programming in Unity. Proceedings of the 2018 Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression, 2018.
