I bet my friend 2 weeks of any new (or old) release they want (up to a max of $20) that it will be 3 weeks until GDS drops. Please Apple do what you usually do... don't change.
Weird thing is I saw in Openfeint that someone is playing G. Swarm. I thought it is a tester but it says the game was released August 1 and there is a not working iTunes link. I guess is an estimated release date but I got excited. The price will be 0,99$
What's with all the bets for additional weeks in review? Usually when an app is rejected for something that doesn't involve the actual game (like keywords) it is expedited and approved in a few days. @Shinto: that was probably one of the beta testers. I'm pretty sure the date of Aug 1st is when the final build was built by the dev. It's been in review for some 3 weeks and there was a final test cycle the week before it was submitted, so the timeline fits
Sure, thanks for the explanation. The name was Hodapp, a tester from TA I think. I hope the game is released soon
Yes Hoddap has a beta build I believe so that would make sense. Also I was saying that I thought they would just reject the app if they saw key word violations since they would just review tw whole thing again anyways to make sure no changes were made that were against the rules etc. Although you're right it would make more sense to just review the whole thing and tell all problems at once. But then I don't know their review process so I should not have made that asumption I guess.
any body else noticed the critical thought games website getting an overhaul or is it just me? http://www.criticalthoughtgames.com/Welcome.html PROPER: http://www.criticalthoughtgames.com EDIT: ok the welcome at the end of that link is not needed anymore.. my bad.. everyone check out the cool new website! it even has forums
I bought geoDefense only because I had only $1 on my account but it turned out to be my favorite TD game ever! Can't wait for the open fielded version.
i am so irritated at apple over 4 weeks they have been sitting on this. if this turns up at the keynote speach then they really are taking the p*ss
Monster Kill - submitted: 09-02-2009 released: 09-11-2009 GDS - submitted 08-02-2009 release: ??? There must be some major problems with the application for apple to take this long. This is coming up to be one of the longest games in the app review cycle.
the game was rejected because of keyword violations was resubmitted with said keywords removed on aug 5 see criticalthoughts blog and follow nsxdavids twitter for updates
