This is what is wrong with iOS game development these days

First off, you will have to look up an app called ICE PILOTS.

Make note of the pricing. Read the description, check out the thumbnail and screen shot.
Tell me whats wrong here.

Now look up other apps by the same developer.
Once again, check out the descriptions and screen shots.

Amazing what manages to squeeze through the approval process.

I think I need to make a game where you have to make and sell cheap knock off games with misleading advertising for quick profit.
You have to sell to survive and since your cusomers are not satisfied, eventually an angry mob arrives and you have jump ship and start a new "company" and start the process again. Hmmm.

It's awful, but I doubt that "developer" got any sales.

Hi uptimistik,

I really dont think people are purchasing that, and even if they do. They will ask for a refund right away. In which case the developers looses, because apple doesn't refund the 30% cut.

Man that really is frustrating, app market is in serious need of better regulation, I fear it's going to collapse in on itself over the nest couple of years.
