Did anyone else get an email from Apple that you can now upload apps to itunes connect?

If you get your iPad app in by a certain date, they will feature it in the app store?!

I hope Gamesalad will be ready for iPad uploads and soon!

This will be a Golden Opportunity for us!

    Here's what the email said:

    Really would be nice to get our new games out on the ipad for launch. All we need now is gs developers go add in the option to publish to ipad.
  • design219design219 Member Posts: 2,273
    Yeah, I got the email. It would be nice to hear something on GS status with the iPad.
  • ChaserChaser Member Posts: 1,453
    Come on GS you can do it
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    C'mon guys! We're rootin' for Gamesalad to give this to us! Golden Opportunity for developers and GS! :)
  • PhoticsPhotics Member Posts: 4,172
    I don't know if it's really that golden. Aside for development, is anyone here actually planning on buying an iPad?

    The feedback that I've been reading online, it seems that the iPad is the target of lots of jokes and criticisms.

    Although... ha ha... this post is not to discourage Gendai Games. I'm looking forward to the next update.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    It's hard to say, but from what I've heard, they were selling out their preorders fast? So I'd rather err to the side of the iPad doing well :)

    I wouldn't miss an opportunity to get working on one and let's hope GS releases an update before deadline, fingers crossed!

    "I don't know if it's really that golden"

    Man, I hate to the downer in the room. I'm ususally the optimist. But I'm in this camp with the iPad. I hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see this being much of a big deal after the inital rush.
  • design219design219 Member Posts: 2,273
    The iPhone was a big unkown. Now the iPad is way hype based on the iPhone.

    ...Just sayin'
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    design :)

    Who knows who will be right... but one good point is, why wait to find out? Why not have at least 1 iPad game ready

    You don't want to miss the boat if it does turn out to be a great opportunity do you?

    All I'm saying is to get your games ready for 768x1024 or vice versa. That is all I am leaking.
  • JamesZeppelinJamesZeppelin Member Posts: 1,927
    Code monkey I think i love you ... wait thats really creepy. Especially when you look at my avatar

    The only thing is that i think they will be somewhat choosey for the grand opening. I assume it means tougher to get an app but better sales if you get in.

    I think my new super top secret non game app is up to par so, im just crossing my fingers!!!!!!

    It all Ipad ready now!
  • design219design219 Member Posts: 2,273
    Yes, I'm glad many GS members are getting ready, I'm sure the head chefs will announce something soon. I hope iPad does well, I was just so dissapointed that it lacked so much.

    -and there you go!

    @d219

    In my opinion as long as it runs fast it is what the developers make it
  • design219design219 Member Posts: 2,273
    James, you bring up a really good point. How are we to know how fast they run until we have a device to test on? It's a faster processor than iPhone, but you pushing more than 4x the pixels around.

    Darn, I hate sounding so negative. I'm really not the way I sound in this post. I'm just afraid there is going to be a lot of grumbling after this thing launches. And again, I sure hope I'm wrong.

    By the way, love the new avatar!
  • JamesZeppelinJamesZeppelin Member Posts: 1,927
    thats why as said "as long as" lol

    There will be grumbling even if its great though.
    People love to hate the big guys.

    I'd be happy even it was just the new iphone with a bigger screen.

    I love my iphone and use it all the time so anything will be great.

    I just cant wait for 6 months till they announce the "Ipad Mini"

    Still getting an ipad on launch though. The wife probably will too.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    What size do the icons need to be for the iPad?
  • JackBQuickJackBQuick Member Posts: 524
    Yippee! That's VERY exciting.

    Although there are people who doubt the demand for the iPad, I think it will be a hit. Not everyone needs the power that comes with a laptop or desktop computer. (Although that wouldn't include anyone reading this, of course.) I know a lot of people who just check their e-mail, run an app or two, and surf the web; the iPad would suit their needs perfectly.

    Bring it on, I say.

    My hats off to you, CodeMonkey et al. Let me thank you for all your hard work and dedication.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    I've talked to a lot of people at my work, anesthesilogists and doctors who have preordered the iPad and are excited about it, talking about supplementing it for their laptop

    What size icon for iPad apps now?
  • jonmulcahyjonmulcahy Member, Sous Chef Posts: 10,408
    I think everything is the same for icons. 52x52

    Today, I'm going back and updating my graphics for my next game. I may be a bit pessimistic about the iPad, but I figure that I might as well try.

    There's one week to the iPad submission deadline for the grand opening.
    Will there be an update to GameSalad before that?

    I'll be ready regardless!

    A reminder.

    Cutoff time is 5pm (PDT) on Saturday with the apps built (compiled) from the Beta 5 release
    of the 3.2 SDK to make the initial launch.
  • GamexcbGamexcb Member Posts: 179
    I am almost ready! Just one thing...
    How do you submit an iPad app?!?!
    Do you submit it like a regular iPhone app?
  • design219design219 Member Posts: 2,273
    You can't yet in GameSalad. We're all waiting for the next update.
  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    was gonna wait and see, but after code monkeys little teaser on get your games ready...

    I now feel like I should be sitting up all night converting my current game. Be great to do an iphone and ipad launch all at the same time....with a free iphone version with an advert for the ipad version.....

    hmm..
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    Can anyone post a link of the latest version of xcode please? We need that if we are to publish iPad apps right?

    Hope Gamesalad updates so we can do this! :) Fingers crossed!
  • GamexcbGamexcb Member Posts: 179
    I was talking about submitting a "regular" app!
