At the beginning of 2016 Microsoft decided to stop further development of the game. On 13th May, the title disappeared from the Xbox Store and Windows Store, and on 12th August the web services allowing for uploading and downloading content created by the community were turned off.

Mechanics

Project Spark is a sandbox project, based on the assumption that creating games can also be a game, and thus a great fun. It is intended to resemble such titles as Populous, Minecraft or Little Big Planet. However, the developers of Project Spark have gone a step further than they did in the hits of the PS3 console, which offers huge possibilities for modeling the game's world. Using the workshop and tools provided by the authors, we design the world of our own game, which we can share with other players. Each of them can modify or expand our ideas, making sure that the universe created by us will change on an ongoing basis.

We Got This Covered: 4 / 5 by Eric Hall

While the many tools provided in Project Spark may not appeal to everyone, their combined potential makes the game worth looking into.

ZTGD: 7 / 10 by Ken McKown

Project Spark is a fantastic creation tool with some severe growing pains. The complexity will scare off lots of creators, and the customization items locked behind a pay-wall will deter even more. I worry that no one will be creating gems on the system outside of a few dedicated creators. A game like this lives and dies on its community, and I am not sure Project Spark has the legs to keep things interesting for years to come.

Metro GameCentral: 7 / 10 by Roger Hargreaves

The most powerful game creation tool ever released for a console, but it's less accessible than it could be and the endless microtransactions leave a predictably sour taste.
