Microsoft Research’s Kodu Game Lab is now available for download on Xbox Live and I can’t wait to try it out. Why is this so exciting? Kudo is a new visual programming language that allows players to create their very own video 
games.
If you are concerned about not being tech-savvy or experienced enough, don’t worry! I’ve read that it is very easy to use and was “originally unveiled where a 12-year-old girl created a game with the program.”
The developers insist that it was designed to be “accessible to children” and the only tools required are a game controller and your imagination! I don’t know about you but this sounds like a lot of fun!
Here are some quick details:
- Developer: MSR Kodu
- Genre: Family
- Game Rating: Unrated
- Players 1-4
- Co-op 2-4
- HDTV 1080p
- Custom Soundtracks
- Online Multiplayer 2-8
There is a free trial version available for download but, if you like it, you can buy the full version for just 400 Microsoft Points (about $5). What would you make?
