Comments on: Machinarium refused for XBLA, moves to PSN instead *UPDATED* http://www.xblafans.com/indie-adventure-game-machinarium-refused-for-xbla-41.html Sun, 05 Feb 2012 07:05:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Friv http://www.xblafans.com/indie-adventure-game-machinarium-refused-for-xbla-41.html/comment-page-3#comment-9835 Friv Thu, 29 Dec 2011 14:01:00 +0000 http://xblafans.com/?p=41#comment-9835 There's a lot of small studio and indie games published on XBLA published by XBLA or Microsoft. Braid is the most prominent example. I think the developer is bending the truth. Machinarium is written in Adobe Flash. To my knowledge the XBox 360 does not have any Flash support and likely Microsoft doesn't want to add it. Now if the game was ported to Silverlight or used Microsoft Game Studio's library. I bet Microsoft would have welcomed it warmly. It's a bit like trying to get Apple to publish a DirectX (MS) game without thinking about the cost of porting, or trying to get Microsoft to publish an Application that uses Cocoa. If box (computer) don't support the framework it's going to cost a bit more to publish it. There’s a lot of small studio and indie games published on XBLA

It was very informative. I have a humour blog that addresses the issues of aging for all of us, and remedies for the stresses and strains, flus and colds etc. that we all encounter. I have had people laugh at my blogs, which is the point, as laughter in the face of adversity often lightens the load, at least temporarily. I want to know if I provide sound for my blog, so that the stories have a more personal touch, will this be more appealing to blind individuals, or would it be a waste of time? Thanks for the post.
