Project Spark is coming to Xbox 360 and Xbox One next year, and it’s starting to look really cool. You can create games and movies using its amazing tools, and this new hour-long video shows you some of the brilliant things you can do with it.

You’ll be able to see how you can use Kinect to animate your characters easily, so you can have perfect actors in your films, or make an attack animation exactly how you want it. You’ll also be able to watch the guys build a new game from the start, seeing how making a world is really easy with Project Spark.

If you want to do all these cool things before Project Spark comes out, you should sign up for the Closed Beta. A Closed Beta is an demo where you can help the developers test the game to see if it works properly. You can only play if you have an invite though, so you’ll need to sign up for one at the Project Spark website. If you get an invite, you’ll be able to play Project Spark in October!
