The game is retina optimized but the app icon is blurry and pixelated, that's very annoying to me !
Having a single low res icon on a full page of apps is just driving me mad
Can you please update it ? Thanks !

Re: Why NO High Resolution Icon For Osmos On Retina Display ?
Hi there Angry,
we wanted to provide a high resolution icon for Osmos, but sadly Apple made us choose. We could either drop support OS2.x, or offer a high-res icon for Osmos. High-res icons are only available if you compile exclusively for OS3.x or higher. We decided it would be nice to let people with older hardware play the game.

Re: Why NO High Resolution Icon For Osmos On Retina Display ?
Ok, I understand your point of view, but OS 2.x represents such a small part of the devices ! It's insignificant !
Most developpers, even major apps no longer support it !
I hope you'll change your mind, I really wish to have HD icon !
Sometimes stopping retro-compatibilty helps the evolution of devices, apps and customers (lol)
(I'm kind of niggling sometimes...)
Whatever, thanks for the answer

Ok, we will Angry, but it'll take some time. (It takes 2 weeks just to pass an update through Apple submission process.)
btw, did you give Osmos a 1-star review because of this? (I saw someone did for exactly this reason.) If so... come on, cut us some slack. You can always update your score
Thanks,
Eddy

Hum, that's weird !
I already changed it to 4 stars, with a flattering comments but it seems that Apple didn't update it.
I'll try to fix that this evening.
I really hope you'll update the icon because your game is great and deserve a nice icon
Update : I edited the comment via iTune, it worked. I gave 5 stars to encourage you to update the icon

Wow.
I always wondered who those freaks on the iStore were who randomly gave apps a 1 star review just because of something stupid and insignificant like the app icon...
Now I know!
It's like some people like to show their disgust so much, they think it's appropriate to write the whole app off with a 1 star rating.
These people are mindless, display troll-like properties, and were probably spoilt / an only child.
How on Earth someone could actually bother starting a thread about this?

Seriously! You really "wish" to have an HD icon? Go read a book, do your homework, find something important to give a **** about!
I couldn't care less about an icon, it's far more important to reach a greater audience than it is to satisfy some OCD for a very small number of the very strange type of customers you have.
