Kodu Coming June 30th

.

I'll buy it for $5 but I can't imagine that you will be able to create anything that amazing with it. It is going to be hard to create with just a controller.

This is available right now to playtest if you are a Creators club member

And it is a door to xbox live... you can share, maybe even sell your game if it is any good. So it's an interesting piece of software.

But for now it is too soon to really know the depth of the program.

So telling that is for kids and idiots it's foolish... nobody knows trully how and what you can do with it.

interesting

Wait! I know what it is, its game design for babies and idiots!  "

Oh wow, forgot about this. Looks a little too simplistic to be a serious game-developing tool but can't argue with 5 bucks.

If this is as great as they say it is shouldnt it be a retail release?
or at least more than $5?

Oh yeah, I totally forgot this existed.

...Ya she wasn't programming.
Using a game editor is different than actually programming a game from scratch.

We need birth-certificate evidence that Sparrow really is a 12 year old girl.

I put these things in my Watch List, so I can't forget them.

I thought this was the guy who wears the shades and it was a typo and got really excited, thinking their was a Kudo life simulator or something

LOL.

And i really think this could be awesome. It's just a really simple map editor with a visual path editor for programming, but it could do a lot of neat things.

I'll pick this up out of curiosity. I'll probably never use it, sadly.

I've been pretty interested in this "game" for a while and I'll definitely drop $5 for it...that's a small price to pay for what potential can be found in Kodu.

Ehhh, oh I remember this

Damn, I forgot about this. Might check it out. 400 points ain't shit.

Thought you said Kudo was coming, sorely disappointed.

Kodu...how about fuck off.

I have a great idea, lets have a 12 year old girl show us how to play!

You know what pisses me off? Not all countries, like mine (Singapore), are given access to Community Games and I actually really want to give them my money and get this game. Its fucking dumb.

Yeah... it sounds like they lost confidence in the project after showing it to the public for the first time and put it on the back burner; lowered the scope of the project, and are leaving it to rot on the community games menu (a menu I have visited a whole two times since community games was released).

I don't really see myself playing/using this ever because it seems way too simplistic and I foresee many micro-transaction-gamepack-additions in the future of Kodu.

lol i remember when so many Sony fanboys marked this as a little big planet rip off. \

400 points is a great price for this and I will surely pick it up.

europe doesnt even have a comunity games tab as far as i know, so we wont get it >_>

Kodu's all well & fun, but im waiting for a Kudo game.

I don't know about this. I'll stick with making flash games... This looks a little too simple in my opinion. 

Wait! I know what it is, its game design for babies and idiots! 

Seems pretty cool.

Sounds cool and for $5 its a steal but I just don't see myself ever needing that. I barely have enough time most days to play games let alone make them.

Hmm, don't think I'm alone in saying that this one got past me.
I'll probably end up getting this, 400 points does seem like a good price.

With all the commotion surrounding Natal that stirred up during E3 , it's easy to forget about Kodu , Microsoft's game-creation experiment that debuted at CES earlier this year. The Microsoft Research team has apparently been quietly toiling away on Kodu, taking time to post a screenshot or two each week on the official blog . It was mentioned earlier this month on that very blog that the team was looking to launch at the "end of June," and today Xboxic (via Joystiq ) is reporting that Kodu will be available on the Xbox 360, through the Xbox Community Games section, on June 30th for a scant 400 Microsoft points (or $5 in AmericaBux.)

That seems pretty cheap for something that will ostensibly let you create your own game experiences with nothing but an Xbox 360 controller, which, along with the fact that it's being shoved out into the never-visited Community Games wasteland has me a little worried that Microsoft doesn't have a huge amount of faith in Kodu. If you don't recall what this whole Kodu thing is all about, check out this stage demo from CES 2009.
