Title: Any changes for openxcom on appstore?
Post by: tulwinn on May 18, 2024, 09:44:18 am

Hi all, firstly apologies if this is a ignorant question.
I used to play openxcom  lot, mainly on my android phone, but when I switched to an ios phone I wasnt able to play anymore.

I cant remember the exact reason why it was not on the appstore.  Could the loosening on appstore rules, to allow emulators such as delta and retroarch, mean there will be any change to openxcom on the appstore?

Thanks

1/ I have no intention of paying $100+ for an apple developer account

2/ the app would never pass the apple review process, because it is not self-contained, i.e. doesn't even start without the OG files, which obviously cannot be bundled in
(same for Google Play store btw.)
