Porting Games to iOS: Part 1

We have recently decided to port our Radar Chaos games to iPad.   One month ago, we visited the Apple website to sign up as an official Apple developer.  Step 1 is to enter your business D-U-N-S. number.  Huh?  Never heard of it.  The D-U-N-S Number has become the standard for keeping track of the world’s businesses. Many major corporations, including Apple, require their suppliers and contractors to have a D-U-N-S Number. It verifies the credibility of your business.

So we applied for this number last month, and just 30 short days later, we received a friendly email from Dun & Bradstreet, containing a brand new, shiny D-U-N-S number.  But upon submitting this number to Apple, we were told that the number was not valid.  Apparently it takes a couple of weeks for the number to get distributed across the various look-up databases (or something like that).

So, we are patiently waiting.  We will keep you posted with our progress on Radar Chaos for iOS right here.

    Well, that’s not too surprising, considering that there is alot of databases out there needed to update. I think that it would be better if the people who create the D-U-N-S number to only give it to companies only AFTER they activate it though. So, what’s up with the demo version of RC Hawaii?? I have been waiting for it for hundreds of hours……. 🙂

    John,

    My apologies for not getting the freebie online sooner. It’s something that we are working on, and should hopefully have it online very soon.
