Is it possible to test your game on the iPhone to see how it feels without going through the whole publishing process? Testing in GameSalad just doesn't feel like it would on the iPhone. Is there anyway to play and test a game on an iPhone without going through the long publishing process every time I make an update? Thanks in advance to anyone that helps.

    I'm guessing you mean via Ad Hoc. You can use the GS iOS viewer, most people do. I stick to Ad Hoc's though.

    Is there any way to do it without an iPhone publisher account or is it absolutely necessary in order to play your own games on your iPhone?

    You need an Apple iOS developer account, yeah. Unless you know someone who will add your phone to their devices and you could use the iOS viewer as an Ad Hoc of theirs. You could also make a HTML5 game, they are iPhone compatible.

    I have tried playing my game as an arcade game on my iPhone, but it is always plagued by terrible lag. I'm probably going to buy the Apple Developer account soon anyway so it's not that big of a deal. Thanks for the help man.
