Mac app store question

Fal01

Hi all,

I just joined the mac developers program and I need to know what I have to do to make my ios games compatible with the mac app store.

There doesn't seem to be a Platform for mac under the project info screen.

Do I have to change the dimensions of the game?

I looked but I can't seem to find any videos/info about this.

Any help will be appreciated.

What size are you trying to publish?
iPad versions (1024x768) can just publish directly, but the recommended sizes are 1280x800 and one other size that I don't remember off the top of my head.

By the way, you can probably expect some decent sales in the Mac App Store -- it seems that people are really looking for games on Mac OS. I did absolutely NO promotion for my game for Mac, and it has been in the Top 10 in the Games-Kids category for the last week and a half (it even peaked at #2 for a couple of days, right after Angry Birds).

Cheers JustMe74 that sounds promising!

So do you select iPad in the Platform select dropdown and then choose mac when you publish?

No. I just used my iPad version, but I selected "Mac OS" when I went to publish.
