I don't understand the back button thing. Does that only apply to games that have more than one scene. Or all games?
If so I don't get why Tizen publishing is announced as supported and why they also mention gamesalad on their website, when nobody can submit anything??
I have a feeling that the back button was something that was not discussed. It's not required functionality in android, I think they probably thought it would be optional. Just my opinion.
Would be good if somebody updated the info at top of this thread because I spent silly amount of hours getting something ready to upload for Tizen - and it must be more annoying for people that went through the whole upload and approval process before finding out we can't actually submit.
I can't publish on Android until it is taken care of. My game requires swiping the screen very close to the back button area and as soon as the game get's frantic I end up swiping the back button too often. I don't want my players to feel the frustration I feel when I am about to post a new high-score in my game and then I get thrown out of the game and my effort is lost because I touched the back button.
Trying to publish some games to Tizen, but the IDE is throwing out some errors, and I really have no way to change these things. Is this an engine issue, or something wrong with my settings?
I have the same two errors but even if they were addressed - it's pointless with the missing back button functionality which they say is mandatory to publish.
I see you ask for an EULA. Is this required and if so, is there something that GameSalad can provide as a template? When Windows 8 publishing became available GS offered a similar template that was greatly appreciated. That was a privacy policy though so I wouldn't want to assume it covers the same things that an EULA would cover.
@dgackey "it's a platform that is uniquely suited for GS developers due to the hardware being designed for broad adoption and HTML5 powered content."
Everytime I hear html5 my ears start tingling.
I downloaded a Tizen sample project from their website and looked inside. So many familiar items: html, javascript, json. Do we get to see our GameSalad's Tizen builds like that?
The reason I'm asking is that some GameSalad users "sell their services to build games or apps for others", and I wonder if that is a market that GameSalad is overlooking.
We would really benefit from being able to export our games, apps, books, ads and client projects as html5. Is this something that you are looking at?
I've really lost track of where Game Salad's HTML output is at. Last time I checked it was a really un-usable 480x320 Game Salad Arcade embedded thing, which was basically useless to everyone.
Will there be an update soon letting us know what our HTML / Web Game output could look like in the future?
I love how these questions arent answered. I see these questions and many others with similar premise. Getting excluded from responses from the GS Team.
SO are you saying that in regards to HTML 5. That Tizen will be the answer to all our previous html 5 concerns and requests? .exe output? .dmg output? Larger option of screensize output? etc etc etc. You know all those things one would expect from a HTML 5 feature.
Poop really? So we can or can't publish at the moment?
You guys get that email too? Sh** I'll publish to Tizen if they want to pay me $700 for one app. No further incentive needed. Although, 3 months of Pro in addition sounds nice too.
@mounted88 I saw that but I haven't received an email and was wondering if others haven't. I should have worded it better to read "Has anyone NOT received....".
To anyone who can help, Im trying to download the Tizen SDK, but when I do, it gives me an error saying the dmg was damaged and the following: “inst-manager” is on the disk image “tizen-sdk-mac64-v2.2.71 (1).dmg”. Google Chrome downloaded this disk image today at 6:58 PM from developer.tizen.org.
Any ideas?

I'm kinda baffled. What I think are my better games scored lower that my first games that did not sell well at all. :-?
@tylerglessner did you download the install manager or the Sdk image? Just try the install manager and don't do the Sdk image. When you start the install manager it will download the Sdk image automatically.

So, Tizen publishing is go!?
What are the details of the promotion?
I'm guessing it different for every developer since they are scoring each app the selected developers have published.
