Team Meat "won’t work with Microsoft again"

Outspoken indies Team Meat will no longer have a commercial partnership with Microsoft, a co-founder at the studio has said.

Edmund McMillen has criticised the Xbox manufacturer for its lack of support during production of the 2010 XBLA hit Super Meat Boy.

I don’t think we’ll work with them [Microsoft] ever again,” McMillen said on theIndieGames.com podcast. We’ve not had one [discount] sale [on Xbox] since our initial launch, and I don’t know if that’s going to happen.Whenever we ask, and we actively ask monthly if we can be included in a sale or get any kind of promotion, they say no.”
