Has anyone played around with this? http://atari.com/arcade/developers

 

Is it just an HTML5 development platform with some Atari/Microsoft branding? From what I've seen of it, it appears to rely heavily on Object Oriented Programming concepts and pre-built libraries and APIs. The Batari Basic tutorial video I saw looked a lot more approachable so far as going from game concept to finished game compared with this. I'm just curious as I haven't heard any discussion or interest in this.

This is just an HTML5 developing environment. I'm glad you posted the link, though, because it's a neat opportunity for those who would like to try it out.

 

They also offer some money for your game through advertising, if you submit stuff.
