Submitting Your Game with Visual Studio
When you are finally ready to publish your game, you will be happy to know that it can eas-
ily be done through Visual Studio. Simply go to the Project menu in Visual Studio and go
down to the Store option.
NOTE
If you are using Visual Studio Express, the option for publishing to the store is in its own
menu next to Tools at the top. Other than that, the same process applies.
Select “Upload App Packages” as you can see in
Figure 6-4
and Visual Studio will begin the
process for validating, testing, and submitting your game. To do this, Visual Studio must cre-
ate an app package (
Figure 6-5
).
