    Would I be able to use the xbox One as a test device for my own stuff, or are there any weird impediments that would prevent me from publishing and then playing on my own xbox One? Skipping any approval process and all that.

    Thx.

    Currently retail Xbox one can't work for developer purposes. They promised to add a support for that later. Until then developers use developer kits.

    But right now, you can test your game using xbox controller.

    I don't think he meant controls. I think it's for testing for things like performance, etc.

    Yeah, sorry I meant would I be able to play it as a stand-alone on my own xbox? Is there an app to test unity projects given that it is not that much different than windows 8 (I think)? Just be nice to test it and also as an aside make silly little games for my boy to play around with.
