Xbox LIVE Indie Games lifts some restrictions for indie developers
Looks like Microsoft is starting to look after their independent game developers.
A few of the good things that have been announced:
- Maximum size limit has been increased to 500MB (up from the previous 150MB limit)
- Developers are now able to apply a price point of 80 MS Points ($1) to games smaller than 150MB. Previously, you could only apply the $1 price tag to games smaller than 50MB
- Also, the maximum number of titles than can be on the market at any given time, per developer, has been raised to 20, up from the previous 10
So Microsoft is starting to see that independent developers can do a lot for your platform.
There are still some things that Microsoft is neglecting, like access to achievements, but overall I believe it to be a step in the right direction.
