Apple Woes

I am very sad to announce that after 4 weeks of waiting, Apple has rejected our App submission, meaning the much awaited 1.01 update to Hero Defense has to go back to the end of the line and politely wait its turn.

I'm sure many of you are left wondering "Why did this happen?", and "Why is Apple so mean?". I wish I had an answer for you. I did, however, think it would be appropriate to let you know why Apple turned us down in the first place -

- because we included the word "Warcraft" in our search terms. Yup, that's it. They could have easily taken the word out themselves and continued through the process of reviewing our app. They also could have sent us an email requesting the change and continue with the review process. Instead, they took the easiest way out and just flat out denied us (they are also refusing to answer our emails on the subject).

Gentle listener, I personally apologize for the stall in this process. We at Brilliant Worlds are highly focused on making Hero Defense the best hero defense game on the iPhone, and we promise to continue to provide robust updates based on community feedback...

...I guess, as long as Apple lets us.
