Way to go, @yasoofx, think positive, they say... onwards and upwards for you and the best of luck. :-)

@yasoofx Once you've deleted a GC game file and have no back up, that's it, I'm afraid (or if you've a copy of the .app you published). Possibly though, a long shot, the guys at GS HQ will still have your file you uploaded before publishing, on their servers; or if you are on a Mac, use Time Machine.

Perhaps a lesson's been learnt here: always make sure you make a backup of stuff day in, day out.... (an external drive preferred....)

Do you know, even though I recommend Time Machine, I don't actually use it myself!! (I've an external hard drive for backups). But enough to say, if you haven't been using it either, then nothing will be there from the past.... (it has to be set up to run constantly, to monitor your machine...)

Any help?

Sorry to hear that, @yasoofx but look on the bright side, the majority of apps that were made and published in 10.3 have no worries with running on iDevices using iOS 7... you have more chance than not of the app being OK.... (but shame you've no file for other updates in the future though...)

So a simple bit of advice: never delete a GSC gamefile – that you eventually publish!!! :P (But you know that now...) B-)

There is a button at publish.gamesalad.com where you can download the unsigned app. Perhaps that helps? I don't know but perhaps you haven't thought about it or tried.

D'oh, yes, of course, @KevinCross, I'd forgotten about that.... "> ..., excellent suggestion. (Although providing he didn't throw away the .app file as well!!)

Then he can still try to download it if he published I and didn't also throw that one away.
