Ouya It was a smart business launching into the Android-based platform market with the first proposal in the history of the operating system to be designed in the form of a video console.

This proposal succeeded with a strong funding initiative through Kickstarter, through which they got nothing less than 8 and a half million dollars. The launch date of the device marked June 4, but it is finally delayed until the 25 of the same month. Now, as the commercial launch of Ouya approaches, which was supposed to take place on June 4, its manufacturers are leaving us, little by little, and more and more, new relevant information such as the one published today that confirms that the launch of the Ouya is delayed until June Some of those who participated in the financing project of Kickstarter a year ago to be the first to enjoy the first Android game console, they already received their promised units last March.

For how long are they playing it? When a player turns on their Ouya, is it the first game they immediately boot up? All of these factors will influence how prominently games are positioned in the Ouya marketplace when a player clicks on "Discover. There will also be an element of hand-picked curation on Ouya. That process, Uhrman says, will be led by Kellee Santiago, co-founder of Journey creator thatgamecompany and now Ouya's head of developer relations.

All new games will go into an area called the "Sandbox," and will be pulled up into the "Recommended" feed after they hit the jackpot on the automated fun algorithm, or are selected by Santiago's team.

Ouya's radical re-envisioning of television games doesn't stop with just recreating the iPhone on the TV. There's no difference, Uhrman says, between a developer kit and a retail console — all you need to make games is the Ouya and a PC.

You can connect it to your PC and transfer your game builds directly to your Ouya, then upload them for all to play and test if you want.

These will be listed under "Builds" in the "Make" menu. Game designers are also free to try different methods of monetization, some that are allowed on the App Store and others that are not. For instance, a difficult action game called Stalagflight is free to play and offers no in-game item purchases, but simply allows you to donate money to the developers via an in-game menu that states that your purchase will not alter the game in any way.
