Last year, Microsoft and Team Dakota used Project Spark as a means to bring back Rare's mascot, Conker, in an episodic adventure. The application was designed to let fledgling game developers create whatever they want, then share and play those homemade games with the community. Project Spark was announced in 2013 for Xbox One and Windows 8. Microsoft says it will offer credit that can be used in the Xbox or Windows Store to players who purchased a retail copy of Project Spark. Project Spark was a game creation video game for Microsoft Windows 8.1, 10 and Xbox One. Project Spark is not available for purchase and online services are also not available as of August. The game was announced during Microsoft's E3 2013 press event, and was launched as a Windows open beta in December 2013, and an Xbox One beta in March 2014. While this means there have been no layoffs at Microsoft, it also means it's simply no longer feasible to continue the behind-the-scenes work involved with keeping Project Spark up and running with meaningful updates and bug fixes, so we have come to this hard decision." Project Spark was a game creation video game for Microsoft Windows 8.1, 10 and Xbox One. "When Project Spark transitioned away from active development last fall, many of our team members moved to other projects within Microsoft Studios. "This was an extremely difficult decision for our team that we do not take lightly," Team Dakota community manager Thomas Gratz said in a statement.
