Here's how I look at it.
If I was going to write an app, I'd probably go the whole route and
make the purchase of a Mac, used or new. However, I am currently in
the process of learning C#, so the ability to port C# to IOS is
particularly attractive to me, especially as I would not have the
history
Also, just as a quick additional note, I love AudioArchery. it's a
great casual game. I'm still trying to reach 350 points.
Keep rockin' it, Liam.

Hi Lenron,
While I understand your point unfortunately its
Hi Ken,
Exactly. The requirement of having to use Objective C for iOS really
makes it an undesirable platform to write games for. Yeah, if you have
the skills an the tools no problem, but a lot of developers are
already comfortable using something else. A lot of developers are like
yourself, they
I have heard that there is a basic interpreter for the mac that lets you
write in basic then encodes to objective c, but I'm quite doubtful that it's
all that effective since they are so different. Even if it was 95% accurate,
you'd still need to know objective C. Even if it was 99% accurate,
You can also use C# to write IOS or Android games using the Mono for
IOS, mono for Android, and optionally mono Game frameworks.
The first 2 cost around $400 each. The third is free but only builds on
top of the other 2.
It would be nice if you could use mono for IOS to stay in C# for most of
It's also worth mentioning a product by the name of RubyMotion, of which I've
heard quite a bit lately. It seems a way to code iOS apps in the Ruby
programming language, which is another to learn but isn't Objective C either.
Best,
Zack.

Hi Ian,
Yes, you can use Mono for iOS for developing games in C#, but as you
pointed out it is like $400 for the iOS version of Mono. That's not
exactlypocket change for an audio game developer. No matter what you
do iOS is an extremely expensive investment from a development point
of view.
Why go that rout when you could just get a mac and go from there. A
lot cheaper using the real thing than a cheap copy!

I did not write Audio Archery in Objective C. though there are times I
wish I had. The system I'm using has some real issues and would be no
good for games using actual controlls. I do plan on becoming very
familiar with objective c.

Hi Trouble,
True. I think if I were actually going to write games for iOS I'd
invest in a Macbook and write the games in XCode using Object C rather
than this round the bend approach of writing them in C# and buying
Mono etc just to port games from Windows to iOS which really isn't the
best way
Not everybody can afford to just run out and buy one.
But thou must!

Hi trouble,
I suppose it depends on where your skills already lie and if you have a
lot of code already written in one language.
I was just pointing out that C# can work on those platforms as well.
Can you do cross platform in objective C? I'm sure there are solutions
for it. But by your
Hi Bryan,
No, not everyone can just run out and buy a Mac, but the truth of the
matter is with iOS that developing software using XCode and Objective
C is the best way to do it. It isn't the cheapest method in the world,
but if a developer writes enough games he or she will make their money
back
yes android is much cheaper to develop audio games. and android is
becoming more accessible all the time.

The only problem developing on android is, all those versions. See
not all phones run the same version. So what works on one may not
work on others. So its not worth writing a version for every release
of android. And yes, the android list reports breakage with apps on
every release of android
It is for mac only.

Trouble, at worst you might have to have a second user interface for

Plus if a developer specifically makes sure to list the system

Hi Ron,
