RadStatue161739 · Jun 12, 2015

Hi there,

I am very new to XBox One game! I want to develop a XBox One game having Kinect capabilities. Can anyone please help me to resolve few queries?

1- What framework should be suitable to develop game for me - as i am new to gaming?

2- What will be the process for beat testing & How can i allow user to test at his XBox console?

3- What data format XDK will return, and how to manage players data on Database?

Can anyone will help me on this?

Thanks!

:)

Please Develop More Games for Kinect on Xbox One

Why Microsoft and other companies stopped developing KINECT GAMES FOR XBOX ONE CONSOLE?

I have recently purchased Xbox One Console with Kinect especially for Kinect Games, but I have seen these days that, no new games added to Kinect for Xbox One , also there is Backward Compatibility for Kinect Games,

Now I am disappointed and planning sell my Xbox One and buy Xbox 360
please develop all the Kinect 360 Games for Xbox One Kinect.

Thank You

What Kinect games is their to go through? We've barely heard of a successful one apart from Kinect sports. You have to admit it yourself. I just don't think Kinect has exactly been a roaring success, hence the fact barely anyone wants it with the Xbox One either.Click to expand...

So basically your talking about Kinect one games! Kinect 1 which is very different to Kinect 2? Kinect 1 that most developers didn't bother to develop for because it didn't have the userbase?
Is that really a suitable basis for judging Kinect games of the future? When you haven't even used the new Kinect and have seen very little of it in action?

[quote user="THE IMMORTAL D"]i think the kinnect has potential too . the problem is if the amount of people with kinnect is small, there is no reason for anyone to try and unlock that potential for a small group of players. why put in
kinnect features if just only 20%-30% of gamer's have a kinnect for example.[/quote]

I agree with you, third party developers will not waste their resources on a product (Kinect) because not every Xbox One owner has one, but that's where Microsoft come in. Microsoft now need to persuade consumers and developers
of why the Kinect is must have. I'm hoping indie developers will create some amazing games with the Kinect, there is already a few supporting the Kinect.

It is my business. They are making the Kinect standard, which mean developers will more likely make Kinect content for games as 100% of the users will have one. Developers will be less likely to add Kinect content if it isn't a standard.

Quit trying to ruin my, among MANY others, gaming future with the xbox one.
