Apple have a cheek!  That's discrimonation against the blind, not allowing something to be released just because isn't up to visual standard!

The app was not approved by Apple since it is missing some necisary visual elements.

Hopefully the True sound team will be able to quickly sort this out and get it posted.

    Liam, any idea when this is going to be available in the App
    Store? If it is already, I can’t find it.

            Hello dear friends and audio game players!

            Only 4 days left to launch (31st January) and we bring you
            good news!

            We have decided to give Episode 1 of GoldGun completely
            for free, so all of you can enjoy and get a feeling of
            what is coming next. The game (read below Disclaimer) can
            be played on 97 % of working iOS and Android mobile
            devices, and will be available on App Store and Google
            Play. If you can't find it there, look for the direct link
            on our website https://www.mytruesound.com/games which
            will appear once the game is on the stores.

            Because the game is free, we hope to reach the 10000
            downloads goal. This is necessary to show the game
            industry and some few investors that there is really huge
            potential for audiogames. Despite you like the game or
            not, if nobody downloads it we won't be able to address to
            them that there are millions of people wishing to play
            audio games.

            For more info about the game, read our Press Kit at
            https://www.mytruesound.com/presskit
            We appreciate you share this info in your social network
            and to your friends.

            Disclaimer:
            1) We are facing some issues with Apple Store we are
            trying to solve at the moment. Somebody there basically
            seems not to understand why an audiogame doesn't require
            visuals, or why the menu is so minimalist. We hope this
            doesn't affect launch date, but everything now seems too
            bureaucratic. Launch on Google Play seems to be problem-free.

            2) This is the first episode of the GoldGun game, which is
            scheduled to be composed of 6 more episodes. Each episode
            will be better and longer than the previous, and have more
            playable content. Due to the complexity of this type of
            game, you should expect next episode to appear within two
            months. However, we appreciate if you play this one
            already, so we can reach the 10000 downloads goal.

            3) This first episode worked for us as a pilot project. It
            is a bit short (compared to the future ones) with about 35
            minutes game play. Pilot project means that it helped us
            to understand better the technology we use, and to make
            different tests. That being said, we believe the quality
            of many of its parts are not yet where we want them to be.
            We believe you all deserve better. We will work hard to
            improve quality of audio already in the next episode. We
            appreciate You are not very hard with us, and provide us
            with some time to improve those issues.

            4) Next episode has been already written, and the story
            improves pretty well. As many of you know, the main
            character of the game, Soren, suffered an accident which
            turned him blind. There is a reason on the game script to
            why the police department thinks he might be able to
            destroy the GoldGun, but few betatesters appointed that
            blindness is a topic which should be avoided on audio
            games. We understood their point and blindness as a topic
            to talk on our game will not be appearing at all on the
            future episodes. We hope you all understand we are trying
            to constantly improve.

            If you read until here, then you know most of what we
            wanted to tell.
            Thanks a lot for liking, sharing, following.

            Best regards
            The team of myTrueSound working on this game
            Mikko Herranen, David Oliva, Jussi Elsilä, Shane Wirkes,
            Joshua Kennedy, Maksim Pokrovskii
