That 2015 showcase could imho use modern replacement. Especially that thumbnail is hard sell in 2022. Tip: for thumbnail probably check with Kosmonautgames if you can use something from his deferred playground. It ofc wont matter to ppl that already use MG, which I guess is majority if not all of current Patrons, but might also get some ppl outside of “inner circle”

@Ravendarke This is something we are looking into and assessing as to which MonoGame titles to use in the updated version, to best showcase what’s currently out there. Suggestions welcome.
Canceled a twitch sub, money is here in better use. Keep it up!

You can add paid support as a new tier. Great decision, from now on we can support the development, and I’m so positive about the future of Monogame.
And also the banner could be much better.

Tom is still missing… would be a good idea if someone close to him to confirm he is okay.

Had no idea this discord existed and is the first time I’ve seen definitive instructions on how to officially request access to NDA console stuff after literally years of trying, and having answered several questions from other MG users over that time I know that is a common issue. It would be awesome if a link to this discord’s welcome section was in the docs somewhere (maybe it already is?), preferably here: https://docs.monogame.net/articles/platforms.html.
Linking to a couple of the more recent topics in case people find them and hopefully end up here:
Where can i get Monogame for Xbox XDK
GDK Build

I didn’t know the existence of that discord server either…
Thank you!! 
Hi, I saw you on the discord channel, tom already answered you??
No, but our ID@Xbox account manager only emailed him a few days ago, and it’s not like anyone is paying him to deal with all us yuppies constantly begging for free software lol
Also, I believe the GDKX MG target is still in development, so there may not be anything to really provide access to yet, aside from the private discord channels. You can still use the UWP Xbox target to develop your game in the interim.

Worth noting the limitations, which I am unaware of any on the full thing… insight would be much welcome…
Sure thing. The basics are, when targeting Xbox via UWP your game will be limited to 5GB max memory and has limited CPU use.
The biggest issue for us, because our games just aren’t that hardware-demanding, is the “Permission Needed” popup. This is a mandatory popup for any Xbox game packaged via UWP that appears the first time a user runs your game that tells users that your game may be farming their personal info. It caused review bombing and high refund rates for our own past Xbox release and several others that we’ve been told about from other devs.

I thought that got fixed…
Hmm…
The mandatory popup? Not that I’m aware of. Would love any info you have on the subject.
