bringing them to android. lots of devs on the eyes-free list.

The work of switching to the play store would be far too much work,
and it would vastly deplete the number of buyers. All of the games
would have to be rewritten from scratch for a smaller market than what
exists as a developer for the Apple platform. The reasons for not
doing this to begin with still are valid. For one, troubleshooting
would be a developer’s nightmare. Two, not enough gamers. Apple was,
and still is, the way to go.
If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!!

It’s unfortunate, but I’ve talked to some other developpers who have
had the same issues.
Mainly developpers who are designing apps as 3^rd parties get hit by
this.
I will certainly write and Call Apple though. Maybe enough people can
give you some sort of free pass, though I doubt it.

What does this mean for the end-user? Will we still be able to do in
app purchases?

I just finished talking with an Apple representative, and Apple’s
decision is that unless I merge the 80 Blindfold Games into a
handful of apps, they will no longer allow new games to be
released or allow updates to be make.
From a technology perspective, that’s extremely hard and
time-consuming. From a business perspective, that would mean
spending hundreds of hours recoding the games, with no possible
return-on-investment. Most of the games generate sales in the
first three months of the game being released, and I’ve been
building these games for 4 years.
From a usability perspective, that means the main menus would be
ridiculously complex, and the settings screens would be confusing
and almost unusable.
If you are unhappy with this decision, you can express your
opinion to Apple. The accessibility desk is at

can call 1-800-MY-APPLE. Thanks to everyone for enjoying my games.
