For what device do you make your game.

I created a couple of games a long time ago, before the iPhone5 arrived.
Now my question is: Do you have to make a game for iPhone 5 and one for iPhone 4or less? Is there a way to make one that adjust itself to different sizes? Also, what is iPhone legacy?

    Legacy is anything below the 5. You can use a template to resize the game to different dimensions.

    There is a new feature that is in the nightly builds called Stretch. Republish your games using this feature and it will just stretch itself out to fill the iPhone 5 screens. actor/image distortion is truly no where near as bad as some people will make it out to be. most cases it all still looks great.

    for anything new i make it at iPhone 5 and use stretch to fit all other devices across all other platforms. Some people will also claim you need to make your games as iPad and convert from there but i have found no benefits from doing that. it just boggles their minds that you can have images large enough to look good on iPad in actors sized for iPhone. but trust me, it works and works very very well.
