The best thing to come out of Microsoft’s push into the indie space was XNA, which even now stands as one of the best game development frameworks of all time. It’s a shame they murdered it in its crib.
(I know Monogame/FNA exist, but I’ll always wonder where the project could have gone with Microsoft-level funding)
But but but… Consoles are the AAA industry. Indies have a chance because of PC gaming.
and nowadays im siding with the indies.
triple A has been pretty dissapointing lately.
Honestly the XBLA (Xbox live arcade) kicked off a lot of indie games, that was short lived though it differently has the best chance on PC
