The Gunstringer moved from XBL release to retail due to request from Microsoft
Published on
Twisted Pixel's CEO has said its upcoming marionette game, The Gunstringer, was switched from an XBL-only release to a full retail version, due to a decision made by Steve Baller and other Microsoft head honchos during a business retreat.
Speaking in a video interview with D'toid, Michael Wilford said the business types at MS saw a demo of the game, apparently liked it, and asked if the developers could switch it over to a full release.
Wilford also said that the team had been working on a retail version "secretly" since February.
You can watch a demo of the game below, with Wilford providing the walkthrough.
The Gunstringer is slated for a September release on Kinect.
