Far from Notch's claim that the operating system would be terrible for all indie developers, an early crowd of adopters has been welcomed onto the store with open arms. Dlala's first Windows 8 game is Janksy , a physics-based sci-fi puzzler. The real deal sealer was when I spoke to the guys from Microsoft and they're lovely to work with.
It's a change of tune from earlier days at least. Delay recalls launching a version of Darwinia for Windows Vista. We had to include an Xbox control mode in case anyone plugged in a controller and redo graphics to make it work properly on bigger screens. We went through all the certification and it ended up selling about ten copies. They're a company that will write you thousands of pages worth of requirements.
You don't want all that getting in the way. Grand-Scrutton can only report good things. But we got to know them and we got support from them and they're fantastic.
We've had almost hour technical support when we needed it. They are fully in control of every game going through their double testing procedure and certification process so you don't get a load of crap.
We're just going to have to see how things develop. But with us as an indie, we founded ourselves 10 weeks ago and we've got a game published on Windows 8 now. I would recommend it to any other developer. All consumers want is an easy way to access applications on a platform they can love. While far from perfect there are, of course, many advantages to a closed games marketplace. It's hard to find a more prevalent example than iOS.
I hear what Gabe's saying but he's looking at it from a different perspective, and that may be unique to the company that owns Steam. Even Delay can't argue with that fact. And because Apple had that rule from the very beginning you never see apps that take ages to load. Similarly, [Microsoft] can control the quality, get a cut of the price and solve a lot of the security issues. So why all the fuss about Windows 8 if a closed marketplace works so well on Apple products?
Delay's dislike of such a system is essentially down to two reasons - a continued lack of trust in Microsoft, and the fact that such a system is better left to consoles and not the core PC audience. Microsoft is not a company that's able to benignly oversee that process. We'll all be doing Kinect support and 16 language versions, we'll all be supporting a Microsoft Office plug-in.
It's my own worst nightmare. But the flipside of that is you get DayZ. It's full of bugs, it's hard to connect to anything, but it's one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. It would never have come out on Xbox Live because it wouldn't have passed certification in that state. If that changed it would be terrible. Thank you! Any more feedback? The more you tell us the more we can help. Can you help us improve? Resolved my issue. Clear instructions. Easy to follow.
No jargon. Pictures helped. Didn't match my screen. Incorrect instructions. Too technical. Not enough information. Not enough pictures. Any additional feedback? Submit feedback. Thank you for your feedback! Windows 7. Windows 8. Windows The moment I bought my laptop brand new and originally came with Windows 8 from a retail store, I went back home to upgrade it to Windows From then on installed the usual things like Skype, Thunderbird and Chrome etc.
Then within a few hours a popup window will come up saying "You are about to be logged off - Windows will shut down in 1 minute" and I will have to restart the system afterwards to continue my work. Tried to go back to the shop where I bought it from and they asked me to check the power settings and all seems to be down correctly. This thread is locked.
