My points exactly. Now it will be harder to get noticed in the microsoft store as well.
But we get $100 for a fart app and they dont seem to care. Quantity over quality all over again..

I bet the people who published games the day before this started are sooo pissed.. :P

Haha sad to be them.. Time to get pro now..
But it is limited to only the first 10000 apps.. Expect it to be sold out before next week as thousands of indies look for the free $100 by submitting a fart app..

Now all they need to do is sponsor the dev fee...
Oh, and I wouldn't say no if they wanted to sponsor my GS Pro membership either.

@PBGames
Me too!
And I definitely wouldn't say no if they wanted to offer me a free license of Windows 8 Pro, to test my games on.
