    Hey tsb what do u mean?

    Does touch is pressed not work on Mac?

    He is talking about UI - User Interface. I'm guessing, for example, you need to write "click here" instead of "touch here"

    Yeah, seems to be an issue with ports of iOS games. If it is just a direct port then it will get rejected. However if you change certain elements to be (as TSB said) mouse friendly such as instructing people to click rather than touch then it might be ok. From reports on other sites it seems a bit hit or miss still on whether things are approved or not.

    I submitted 3 games over the weekend. Approval times are about 13-14 days at the moment, I'll let you know how it goes.

    I submitted 4 myself, but expecting rejections. I changed the instructions to say "click" instead of touch, but we shall see.... :)

    butterbean, let us know how it goes. i submitted the desktop version of my app friday and it's still in review. I'll post back if it's approved.

    @jon: Did yours already go "in review" or is it waiting for review? Mine are still waiting for review, so not expecting to hear anything until next week, but fingers crossed at least 2 get approved :) I'll keep everyone posted here

    it's still waiting for review. I submitted a new iphone game and a mac app game on the same day, the iphone game went into review tonight, but the mac app game is still waiting.

    i wonder if they have any info on the average times on the dev website
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    Yeah I tried looking up wait times for the Mac App store, but there just seems to be a general "Wait thread" in the iphone sdk forums, I'll see if I can find anything :)

    its probably like 30 days unless they like your app in which case it's a few hours.

    I've been waiting just over a week now too for Rodent Rage. The black bars on the side of the .app when you launch it (and even a skinny white strip on the right) surprised me. It takes away from the look of the game for sure.
