Upgrading to #Godot 4.7.2 and Xcode 27 broke the iOS export again. Pasting "Apple Development" into the Code Sign Identity Release field fixed it for me.

Rockhopper has been on the App Store for 20 months now and has an abysmal 232 downloads. It's still pretty cool though, when someone puts in the effort to kick the dev from the top of their own leaderboards #IndieDev #GameDev #Godot

First download in April. The numbers aren't important, it's just nice to know there is someone out there enjoying what I've created #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev

Sometimes wonder how I ever managed to release a game to the App Store using Godot. Just upgraded to the latest version and can’t even run the game on my phone now, let alone export a release version 🤬

Rocket Ronz @rocketronz.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Created a nice 2D lightning bolt effect in Godot. No post-processing, no shaders. Just the basic Line2D node with a texture image and some code #GameDev #IndieDev

Just pulled off an old-school one-shot 😏 200+ lines of code added, manually checked before running, worked perfectly first time #GameDev

Messing around with a bit of #GameDev after 9 months away from it. Good fun but I definitely don’t have the enthusiasm to take anything to a releasable state ☹️

Absolutely valid way to debug. I often console.log from Blazor using JS interop rather than use the VS debugger.

Zero Rockhopper downloads this year, so will give it one final push. If you have the game already then a quick rating would really help get back on Apple's radar apps.apple.com/app/6504028206 #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot
