What is Windows 8 "certification" that he's complaining about? Is it about adding it to the Windows Store distributed by Microsoft? In that case, doesn't it need to rebuilt with WinRT/DirectX?
Or to add it as a link to the developer's website like desktop apps can have in the Store?
The requirements are here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh749939.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh74...
Can't see anything really bad there, if anything those rules finally herd the Windows application cats.
- stinos 14y agoexactly. If those really are the requirements it is all about, there's not that much to complain about as most of them are rather 'good practice'. And if you do not follow them your application cannot be in the store? Well boohoo.

- Goronmon 14y ago>It must be code and feature complete At what point in the timeline of Minecraft did it meet this criteria, because when I started playing, this wasn't true, and yet he was still making sales and people were still enjoying the game. And what happens when Microsoft starts "enhancing" the rules?

- TheSOB88 14y agoEnhancing the rules is the real rub here. They could exert more and more control, and since it would be gradual, people would be less likely to bail than if it had happened all at once.
