Hacking Game maker now has xbox one support.

So according to this (and multiple other articles today): http://www.develop-online.net/news/...upport-with-new-microsoft-partnership/0236757

Game maker will support uwp apps, and since game maker is used with a lot of people who have no gaming background (Toby fox for example). I thought to share this info here in case someone has game maker or is interested to look it up and develop games and homebrew

Shame it got a c and d so doubt it somehow would be a brilliant game to play on a console

yes I wouldn't expect am2r to be released officially ever again. that being said though, if anyone knows of popular homebrew or games developed by game maker. I guess we could try to convince them to port it to xbox one

Its worth a go theres quite a few really good ones.

yeah, I personally do not know of the developers of game maker projects, but I will try to contact some. I think this should be a group effort from all of the xbox community to find some

Def worth a bit of effort ill try see if can find some gamemaker forums and see what i can do

It's too bad it's only for GM:S 2, which is not cheap and the yearly fee for the X-Boner plugin costs a whopping $799.
Although it looks like you can still publish games for X-Boner by using the Windows UWP plugin? That has existed since GM:S 1 and is a lot cheaper and doesn't need to be renewed.
