> It’s not burdensome

As defined by who?

  1. Submit build
  2. Wait an hour
  3. Retrieve notary receipt
  4. Staple to correct build
  5. Upload build
Sure sounds more burdensome to me than:

  1. Upload build
Edit: Lol, people arguing with reality. It may or may not be a good thing, but arguing that it doesn’t add any burden to the developer seems hard to me.



Wouldn't you have jenkins (or whatever your build system is) do that all for you?


Possibly, but even modifying your Jenkins script is a ‘burden’. Apparently their polling mechanism also makes that a bit painful.


Not necessarily.


You know what's also a burden? Writing a good game. So I'll just write a shitty one to decrease burden.

Isn't burden the thing you're actually getting paid for when you sell the game?

If adding 2 steps to your build process is such a burden that it results in you not supporting an entire platform, you're either lazy or looking for an excuse.
