Kodu to be released on the Xbox LIVE Community Games Channel in the spring.
Microsoft has announced that it will turn Xbox 360 players into creators with the spring release of Kodu on the Xbox LIVE Community Games Channel.
Kodu promises to offer easy to use game creation techniques that will make building "personal playgrounds" simple for anyone - players choose from a variety of visual building blocks in order to develop their own unique creation.
Kodu created playgrounds are expressed in physical action-reaction terms, using concepts like vision, hearing and time. Players can opt to start their unique creations from scratch or can choose from several pre-loaded levels for quick play. Kodu features almost 200 different game-creation building blocks.
"We've done everything possible to make sure that creating a Kodu playground is not only easy, but that it is also fun and engaging for people of all ages and backgrounds," principal program manager for Microsoft Research and lead "Kodu" designer, Matt MacLaurin said. "Since Kodu's interface is intuitive and prevents common programming mistakes, we're making it easy for everyone to enjoy the magic of game creation."
Kodu will launch on the Xbox LIVE Community Games Channel this spring.
