MAC Apps don't support Game Center, IAP or Tweet Sheet, correct?

Hi Guys,

I am about to port one of my games to MAC. Since we got a free MAC developer account from Apple I might as well use it. I am pretty sure MAC apps don't support Game Center, IAP or tweet sheet. I just wanted to confirm that this is still the case and nothing has changed.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

    Cheers for the reply. You just saved me a lot of time I would have spent testing.

    My iPhone iTunes connect app shows a spot for Mac IAP...so I was under the impression they did at least IAP's. Maybe not.

    Yes MAC apps do support IAP, but what i believe this post is referring to is about Gamesalad not supporting these features.

    That is so odd to me. I didn't know this. Why would you NOT support it ? You gonna have 2 feature requests tonight yo ! 2 new goals in life for the Thunda...push for GC and IAP :smiley:

    Time and resources. We are currently dealing with crashes and issues with the html5 engine. Also users have votes up other features. I would like to added it however at this time i just don't have any more resources to throw at it. I hope that some time soon we can at lest add in IAP since it would be the closest.

    That's fine I'd rather good fixes be done as well...I'm just suprised this has not been part of the core from way back. Are IAP and GC new to Mac ?

    I guess GS was originally built really for just mobile devices only in mind. GS has been around for 7 years ? Not poking...again I was suprised to see this. I'll skip the feature request I'm not very good at wanting to ask people to vote to make something be important enough to put it above other things. It's good to know I can hold off on Mac versions of my slots game.

    When the engine was first built (Including the IAP and Game Center behaviors) IAP and Game Center did not exist for Mac.

    Ah ok. Although I've have my Mac now for almost two years...I consider myself new to Macs so I did not know.
