    Becouseiwant to publish the games in my account.
  • 8BitMichael8BitMichael Member, PRO Posts: 125
    Yes.

    I'm going to publish as many games until my membership expires and then switch over to Unity.

    I don't want my apps on their account and I don't want revenue sharing.

    No, I'm staying.
    I'd like to see if things improve with GS.
    I'm hoping the update is going to be HUGE!
  • EminemEminem Member Posts: 667
    Why would we share money? We made it, we payed GS to make it why would we share our money it doesn't f*cling make sense!

    I hope GameSalad FIXES IT.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    Absolutely I'm leaving. Noone in their right minds would stay given the new plan!

    As soon as my membership expires, I'm dropping Gamesalad like a bad habit.

    Gonna keep going with our current membership till Feb.

    If the numbers don't look worth it, we will be off for sure.
    Will take a LOT of convincing to get us to use the new model.

    I'm very interested in trying corona. I will use GS until my express expires and try to get the most out of it until then. Then I will try corona.

    Fingers crossed, GS will wake up!

    If they remove the right to publish under my own itunes account - then I will be forced to leave!
  • EminemEminem Member Posts: 667
    Omg! This is not helping anyone! No one will make games for game salad WTF it doesn't even make sense!
  • gregr209gregr209 Member Posts: 441
    I don't think some of us will have a choice but to leave GameSalad. I am not going to let them publish games for me. So sad.
  • ChaserChaser Member Posts: 1,453
    I will leave when membership is up in Dec. If they expect profit sharing and an umbrella published account. I hope Rocket Pack/ rocket engine gets up soon
  • DhondonDhondon Member Posts: 717
    100% sure (After my license expires in July, unless GS is bankrupt by then). This BS is not an option:(
  • TouchTiltGamesTouchTiltGames Member Posts: 1,162
    Most likely yeah :( I'll wait to see what the details are though and then decide after my membership expires.
  • expired_012expired_012 Member Posts: 1,802
    I just got back from school WTF HAPPENED?
  • peachpellenpeachpellen Member Posts: 977
    When my license expires, yes. Why? Because it will be a cold day in hell before I publish under someone else's name when I went through hell to get my own dev account with Apple. (It is HARD in Australia and a HUGE commitment with all the tax crap, ABN, GST, etc.)

    I'd add a poll to this.

    I'm reading Corona documentation...
  • MotherHooseMotherHoose Member Posts: 2,456
    well, will move back or sideways to another engine...
    thinking of putting the lua in xCode...

    but still have 6-7 months on membership...

    and, I have no problem fighting for a refund on unused portion of that money...

    YES!!! WE ARE DEFINITELY LEAVING!!!

    Don't need another middleman to give my money too and I don't want my company reliant on another unproven company.

    Already started porting our apps to Corona!!!

    We might use GS to test ideas out quickly...but we will NEVER EVER EVER publish through them or give them a revenue %.

    It was bad enough having their logo on our apps...but to have our apps parked in their account on the app store with God Knows What? FORGET IT!!!
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    @Synthesis: Ditto.

    They are banking on the fact that noone will leave because they "think" they are the only option out there.

    Yes, they are the only drag and drop tool right now, but there are others on the horizon.

    It's a huge gamble, and a really, REALLY pathetic idea.

    I reread it and he says that if people pay u can continue to use iTunes urself

    Is this true?

    If you are talking about the GS Direct post by Yoda, he is just saying if you decide to publish to iTunes you will pay. It has nothing to do with using your own iTunes account.
  • EminemEminem Member Posts: 667
    WTF! That's even worse!
  • JoeMeisterJoeMeister Member Posts: 602
    Is there a way to publish my Game/App I created in GS to Apple without a GS account?
  • PhoticsPhotics Member Posts: 4,172
    I'm waiting to see what happens. It should seem obvious to Gendai Games that they need an option for professionals. I think they'll regain their senses. I still have about 4-5 months left on my GameSalad subscription, so I don't see why I should waste it.

    Although, I'm planning to take a closer look at Corona.

    I set up a forum so that everyone here can stick together, if a mass exodus occurs.
  • VmlwebVmlweb Member Posts: 427
    I am close to leaving, this last update decides weather I go with XCode or stay with GS
    My complaint about GS is that it is limited, has no programming language and is not stable enough
  • JoeMeisterJoeMeister Member Posts: 602
    Maybe somebody can figure out a good way of sharing.
    I would sent my file to someone who still has an active account
    and they can upload the App.
    Have to figure out how to handle the finances.
