Submitting your game

First you need to build an APK of your game.

Before building the APK you need to make sure that the IAP system is targetting UDP. To verify this please go to Window -> Unity IAP -> Android and make sure that Target Unity Distribution Portal is checked.

This screen will show all available stores to publish your game. Find Catappult and click to sign up.
If you already have a Catappult account it will be linked to your Unity account. If you don't, one will be created for you with the details fetched from your Unity account.

After registration/merging of your account is done you'll be taken back to UDP portal and you can now register your game on the Catappult portal. Click the "Register your game on Catappult" and make sure the package name is correct.

With company info filled in you can now click the register button again (this process might take a little bit).
Now you're ready to pick the target step to publish to the stores. On Catappult there are two target steps available:

  • Repack Game - this just applies the store SDK on your game and let's download a preview APK
  • Submit To Store - this step implicitly runs the previous step and then submits the game to the store

Since we don't support a sandbox environment, the APK resulting from the Repack Game won't be of any good by itself. Until the game is registered and uploaded to our portal the services won't work.

Go ahead and pick Submit to Store, tick the Catappult store and on the top right corner click Publish

2064

After clicking Publish and confirming, you'll be taken to the tab "Status" where you can see that your submission operation is "In Process". As this is a composite operation, you'll get 2 notifications. One when the game is successfully packed, and another when the game was successfully published. This process shouldn't last more than 5 minutes.
