Dev Blog 54 - iOS beta

Spent 2 hours this morning submitting the beta build to the iOS App Store for review. I'm not sure if Apple is mediocre at designing processes, or intentionally made the publishing process hellishly complex to weed out less experienced and patient developers from submitting their project.

Either way, after some needless "awful-Apple-publishing-process" induced headaches, we successfully submitted the beta for review. Hopefully we'll have a beta client available for you iPhone geeks in 1-2 weeks!

No word from Desure yet, I'm thinking that the overall timeline for release might need to be pushed back another 1-2 weeks, at least for some platforms, to give us enough time to collect and implement feedback. Ideally I'd like to have all platforms simultaneously release, but it seems as though Android lends itself to an earlier release.

For the rest of the day I'll be working on the respawn mechanic some more, and probably taking a nap (running on 4 hours of sleep for some reason).

Update 1 @ 2PM: Also working on updating some documentation currently
