[xmlvm-users] Xokoban has been accepted by Apple!

[Arno P. <ar...@pu...>]

Guys,

we have been waiting for this news for a long time. Waiting for 5 months 
in fact. Some of you may know that there is a little game part of XMLVM: 
Xokoban, an Android implementation of the old Sokoban game. You can find 
its source code in xmlvm/demo/android/xokoban. This application is 
developed in Java only making use of Android's API. Using XMLVM we 
cross-compiled Xokoban to the iPhone.

We have been quite provocative with this application. The splash screen 
of Xokoban explicitly mentions that this application is cross-compiled 
from a different smartphone platform. That was probably the reason it 
took Apple 5 months to review it.

As of today, Xokoban is in the AppStore! We have also published Xokoban 
on the Android Market. So, you iPhone and Android users, look for 
"Xokoban" on your respective app markets.

Xokoban is only a simple game; we are not game developers but tool 
developers. The important thing is that Apple is not blocking XMLVM as a 
technology. Considering Apple's behavior in the past this should be good 
news to everyone who considers using XMLVM.

We at XMLVM are quite happy about this news.

The XMLVM team.
