I can't seem to get anything at all off of Live today. Nothing but errors on the 360 and "not founds" on the site.

I managed to download the demo on the 360 earlier but while I was doing so I got a mess of "Information cannot be retrieved from Xbox Live" errors too.

Oh wait, this is called "Kodu", not "Kudo".

The Marketplace is acting up for me as well. I was able to successfully purchase and download this, though. Sorry about your luck, but I'm sure it will work itself out.

Same thing happened two weeks ago right after the downtime. I purchased Sam & Max, points were deducted but the game didn't download. If what's going on now is anything like that, and it seems to be, then you'll be able to download it either late tonight, or tomorrow and no extra points will be deducted. I guess it still wouldn't hurt to call MS though. Better safe than sorry.

You can keep an eye on Major Nelson's blog also. I'm sure he will mention something about it since it seems to be a widespread issue. I was able to get Kudo but I've run across quite a few errors as well. Looking at new Rock Band content was impossible.

There is a new wiki dedicated to Kodu Game Lab at http://koduplayground.com

It is just ramping up, but the site will soon contain reference materials relating to Kodu and its programming language including tutorials and how-to guides.

this is great for kids and such, but if you really want to learn how to make xna games, you need to know c# (thats sharp).

i recommend this guide: http://www.robmiles.com/c-yellow-book/
(its not for xna specifically, but xna is built on c#)

I made a level where a tree shoots at an evercoming onslaught of Kodus. Eventually the tree keeps missing one Kudo, leading them to all gang up on it and beat it to a pulp.

400 MS Points well spent, even if C gives me more freedom.

Its a lot of fun to tinker around with. Its probably not going to create the game you ultimately want to end up with, but its a nice exercise in entry-level game programing that can yield some interesting results. Worth the price in my opinion, and hopefully the start of something more.

Shit I missed this last night. Thanks for the reminder! I shall go and get it queued for when I get home tonight.

I'm hoping it's going to be fun to have a mess about with.
