    One word: Volume.

    Edited to add: The biz dev guys have a really good plan, which will likely be revealed and explained in the near future. I really am not at liberty to discuss the details of that stuff.

    Yes, that is correct. The first tier subscription will allow you to publish to iTunes and is free. Or you can get one of the new professional accounts -- a professional account is not free, but is at a much more attractive price.

    I read that they are now implementing they own ads on our app, that way they make the money i think.

    No. Per Yoda:

    There is only one screen. A splash screen. There is no advertisement that follows the splash screen. Our splash video plays at the beginning for 4 seconds (a standard length for any engine "powered by" screen). During this time, the engine is loading your first screen in the background. Should the first scene be very memory heavy, the engine will capture a screenshot of your initial scene and switch to that immediately following the video if your scene is not yet fully loaded.

    We developed this new system in order to ensure that should your game require any more time to load, which based on our testing has very rarely been the case in this update, it would be the developer's content that was shown. We understand people did not want it to linger on the GameSalad splash screen, and so we've built in measures so it does not.

    There are no forced adverts. People seem to be referring to the engine splash as a forced advert. It is, in fact, just an engine splash screen. I hope that clears things up.
