I wonder if Microsoft has a cross platform .Net Core-like DirectX in the works. Given their push to unify their Windows and XBox gaming experiences, I can't imagine it'd hurt to spread that out even further and expand to capture as many games as possible. Though I guess outside the other consoles there's not a lot of other game systems.
- TehCorwiz 7y agoI would not be surprised in the slightest if they did that. In fact, they've actually tried that before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_XNA https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_XNA. It's discontinued, but still used.
- snazz 7y agoMonoGame implements the XNA API and lets you write games that run on Win32, UWP, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Xbox One, PS4, PSVita, and Switch. That's probably the best cross-platform support of any game framework.
