I was wondering if it would be possible (or even desired) for the sales system to have some accommodations for indie collaborators.
For example 2 indie developers collaborate on the creation of a game. They agree to a x%/y% split; but one of the parties ends up having to be the one receiving payments and disbursing them to the other party.
I think a mechanic that allows the involved parties to automatically be paid by the OUYA payment system would remove integrity issues and foster an increased level of indie contributions and collaboration Ultimately ensuring more games of better quality make it to the OUYA market.
I understand that it wouldn't be trivial, the system would have to allow for shared ownership, but would need to prevent the uploader/creator from arbitrarily altering the split without approval of the other stakeholders. I do however believe that overall this could be a very good feature to add in the future.
