Microsoft shuts down Project Spark

prosparkfree-header.jpg

Project Spark, Microsoft's free to play game creation tool, is being canceled; it is no longer available to download on either Windows or Xbox One. People who already have the game downloaded will be able to use its online services until 8/12/16. This comes as part of Microsoft's shutting down of some of it's other "games as services", notably Lionhead Studios and Fable Legends. Microsoft also stated that the game moved out of active development last fall, and the developers have moved on to other projects.

Players who bought the game and its starter pack at retail will have the credits added back to their Microsoft accounts.

Can't say I'm disappointed they canned it but I didn't get even get to play that Conker game/stage.
 
I tried it a few times on PC
Once when they were still in a freemium model and once after they completely ditsched all purchase options and went completely free.
The World creation was pretty good imo but programming anything with it was a nightmare. took me like an hour to make a simple Chest.
I'd rather work in RPG maker and keep never finishing any projects than continue playing this. The developer made story missions were also very bland and depth lacking platformers and the part 1 of conkers reunion had a very awkward sense of humor. I haven't played the N64 game but I can't imagine it being this dumb.
 
This is some pretty old news about the shutdown, but I don't remember anything about a date
I've had the game since Beta on my computer, I think I uninstalled almost two years ago though (before release by the looks of it :rofl2:)

Thought it had potential, but obviously it fell short, didn't satisfy me at all

Rest In Peace, Conker
 
I liked it before it was completely free to play, even though i didnt buy anything, you worked towards unlocking things, when it went completely free everything was just there, nothing to work towards. i'm only playing currently for achivements have a few left to get.
