Mac Desktop
Sections required for publishing:
Icon (Note: Icon upload located in the top header section)
Display Name
Version Number
Bundle ID
Optional sections:
Nickname (Note: This field no effect on the published file. Allows users to customize the name of tabs under ‘Platforms’)
Start App fullscreen by default
Enable Glossy App Icon
Custom Loading Image
App Store URL (Note: Only applicable to games which are also published to the GameSalad Arcade)
Additional requirements:
Apple requires that all Mac Desktop applications be signed with a valid Developer Certificate.
Once you're ready to distribute your Mac Desktop game on the Apple App Store, be sure to sign it with a Distribution Provisioning Profile, rather than a Development Provisioning Profile. Apple will not accept applications via the Application Loader unless they are signed with a Distribution Provisioning Profile. In addition, keep in mind that your .app must be compressed (.zip) before the Application Loader will consider it a valid file for upload.
Mac Standalone applications will now need to be signed with the Developer ID to run on Mountain Lion OS X. To sign a Mac Desktop application with your own Developer ID, please refer to the following documentation provided by Apple:
