MICROSOFT’S BUILD-YOUR-OWN-GAME PROJECT KODU DUE ON 360 IN JUNE?
Remember Kodu? Microsoft’s new 21st century LOGO Steve Ballmer demonstrated during CES that the company hopes will help children learn game/programming logic by piecing together small works of their own on the Xbox 360?
Very much lost in last week’s news was this blog update from the team that says after all its years in development, they’re finally putting the final touches on the package for its release by the end of June.
It’s still not clear how the project will be integrated into the current Xbox 360 lineup, apart from the earlier promise that it’d appear as part of the Community Games initiative: whether that’s as a separate group entirely, or as a first-party Community Games release. It’s just as unclear whether sharing of created game will still be an integral part of the experience.
