VentureBeat - An indie developer has created a game satirizing the new look Xbox Live dashboard. Amid concerns that Microsoft is neglecting its indie games channel, ‘Game Type’ has emerged joyfully on the very platform it is sending up.
Game Type may have left the American dashboard, but what's the indie game like?
Xbox dashboard protest game/shmup "Game Type" has received a large update which adds, and modifies many of the core elements.
Game Type was released from Mommy's Best Games in December as a spoof of the shoddy marketplace handling of Indie Games with Microsoft's new dashboard. It took the picture of a girl in a hoodie jumping in mid air that somehow represented the shared category these games were placed and turned it in to an interesting little shmup.
Today that shmup got better.
That piture is hillarious
Hummus in a box...something everyone can agree on
Fat Guy and Pretty girl...basicaly a cartoon version of Doug and Carrie from King of Queens
Microsoft should be ashamed of themselfs, first hardcore gamers, now indie developers which was what XBLA was known for, whats next.....getting rid of games altogether
That's indie for you - given a platform to release their crappy games, use it to complain and spew hatred!
At least the new dash board starts at load game finaly.
