Week 6: Working on the iOS and App Store version, and formed an LLC!

Sorry, still not released! But much closer!

tl;dr: Created an (still unreleased) iOS export and App Store page and formed an LLC!

What happened last week?

Sorry, I did lots of boring stuff last week. I promise to have more interesting art to show next week!

• Xcode
• In general, I'm not a fan of most Apple tech or of how Apple does business, but I especially hate Xcode.
• Xcode takes up so much space!
• Every time I need to use Xcode, I inevitably have to install the latest update in order to do whatever basic task I need.
• And inevitably, there isn't enough space on the computer I'm using in order to install that update (Xcode is spectacularly HUUUUUGE).
• And then, after painstakingly finding enough things to delete, the Mac OS will report that there is enough free space, but then the App Store will disagree.
• This week I finally learned the difference between "available" and "purgeable" disk space on Macs, and how to convert the latter into the former.
• https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/304017/76001
• Also, we bought a new Macbook that has a lot more space...
• App Store
• I set up a page for Inner-Tube Climber.
• I transferred my "Individual" account to an "Organization" account.
• This involved quite a lot of emailing back-and-forth with Apple tech support, but ultimately wasn't too hard to do.
• I'm glad I don't have to pay them another $100 to put things on the App Store through my LLC!
• iOS
• Fixed lots of weird little bugs that only show up in the iOS version of my app.
• Screenshots
• I've had to create so many different screenshots!
• For the Play Store, I uploaded seven screenshots at 3840x2160.
• For the App Store, for iPhones, I uploaded seven screenshots at 2778x1284.
• For the App Store, for iPads, I uploaded seven screenshots at 2732x2048.
• Fortunately, I've made all this a lot easier with some custom functions in Godot to set arbitrary screen sizes and to take screenshots with a single key press.
• LLC
• I'll talk all about forming my LLC in a separate post!
• A tiny bit of Inner-Tube Climber polish
• A couple friends did a little bit of play-testing on Inner-Tube Climber, and they gave me some great feedback.
• So I fixed a few small issues in response to that.

What's next?

• Next week will be all about creating new levels!
• I was hoping to get around to creating more levels these last couple weeks, but other things have taken all my time.
• I'll also do a little bit more boring LLC formation and app publishing work.

🎉 Cheers!
