Updates to Xbox LIVE Indie Game submission policies

As announced earlier today on the XNA Game Studio team blog and on the App Hub forums, there have been a few changes to the Xbox LIVE Indie Game submission policies to give developers more flexibility when submitting their games.  Here is a brief summary of the changes:

  • The maximum size for an Xbox LIVE Indie Game submission package (.ccgame) has been raised from 150 MB to 500 MB.
  • The maximum size for a game selling for 80 Microsoft points has been raised from 50 MB to 150 MB.
  • The maximum number of Xbox LIVE Indie Games that a developer can publish with one App Hub membership has been raised from 10 to 20.
