Good luck with that; I know the app market is getting ever more saturated so to have a succesful game is getting increasingly harder. I've no idea what the desktop Mac app store is like though. Best of luck with it anywho.

Luckily only a fraction of what comes through is that great, so indie developers still have a shot at some success.

Damn if only I could get the mac store. I have a mac D: but can't get the store for some reason. Oh well. Good luck with everything. I wanna buy Sushiboy. Looks great :)

Strange, maybe you need to have Snow Leopard.

i've got a mac. do i just buy it through itunes or something?

Not sure if you've got to have Snow Leopard or not, but it should self-install when you get the latest update on your computer. You just go to the top corner where the little apple is and hit "software update". I'll post a link to the actual game in there once it releases.

to people above ^ when you click the apple in the top left corner and press app store option. You might have to get the most recent update to see it I think

What was development like for the iPhone? Is the leap from Flash hard? It's something I've been considering lately.

It's not hard, if anything it's a lot more involved. The exporting process, if you're using Flash for your artwork is a bit of a pain for animation. I still haven't found a real efficient way of making it work. Objective-C is a pretty big leap from AS3 and completely different than AS2, but if you've got the time to learn it all it can be pretty rewarding. Apples and oranges though.

i like apples and oranges

i thought you were more into bananas

How exciting!

What did you build Sushi Boy in for the app store, im using flash to build an iOS app atm but I was wondering about creating a HD version for desktop machines.

Built it in xcode using cocos2d

BUZZ IS YOU GOT THE WERD, MAIN MAN!

I downloading it right now
