![]() ![]() As with all fairy tales, then, it's a happy ending. "We took a shot at contacting Finji to see if they might be able to help us do the same, not expecting that they would, but they were more than happy to help us out!"įinji is a developer and publisher founded by Adam and Rebekah Saltsman (creator of Canabalt) and is based in Texas, North America.ĭue to this, none of the restrictions placed on South African studios affects Finji so it can publish games for them on the various app stores.īy working with Finji, RetroEpic is now able to finally bring A Day in the Woods to Android via both the Amazon App Store and Google Play. "In the meantime, we saw friends of ours at QCF Design release their game, Desktop Dungeons, via Finji on the Google Playstore," Hughes said. This option hadn't occurred to RetroEpic before this and so with it becoming open the studio started to work on an Android version. However, after launching the iOS version of A Day in the Woods, Amazon got in touch with RetroEpic to see if the game could be brought to its own Android app store. "It would also have been unfair to release a premium version on iOS and a free version on Android, so ultimately we avoided Android conversations altogether." "Our options were left, then, to releasing for free or possibly make use other monetization options which didn't appeal to us," Hughes added. "Currently, there is no way for a South African company to set up a merchant account and sell a game for a premium on the Google PlayStore," Hughes explained.Īpparently, this will should be changing in the future, but for RetroEpic, this meant that that an Android version of the game was trickier than it should be. At least, it had to be as far as the studio could see at the time. ![]() Megan Hughes of South Africa-based studio RetroEpic Software told us that A Day in the Woods had to be iOS-exclusive at first.
