   Wait, you save seals by clubbing them? They look hollow - like a piggy bank, except seals, is there money inside?

   Why was your app rejected by Apple?

   You know I bet it would have been approved if you made it so you were clubbing people trying to kill the baby seals...

   Did they give a reason?

   Then again maybe anything going on with seals is just a faux pas..

   Brainless app.. Well it is a game after all :) Apple banned it for "Objectionable Content" which would be fine by me if they also rejected GTA, Kitten Cannon and the many other equally or more objectionable games out there. Or at least they would have given me some kind of indication before I finished the game. I attempted to contact then beforehand but they "Don't do pre approvals."

   It's surprising that this thing, in whichever variant offered, keeps popping up. Putting aside the OP's admirable fortitude to get this, and I'm being kind, 'app' published, I get the feeling there is a big, bright, red button at Apple specifically for rejecting such 'apps'. It likely makes a raspberry sound, and the entire dept cheers.

   That this 'app' is no less stupid that other mindless offerings, should be a red flag that 'time well spent' was not spent on this particular endeavor. But of course it is the OP's time to spend.

   Zombie seals would have been better. Chocolate seals don't look different enough.

   Or you could have shaken things up and have it so that you are clubbing "arctic tigers" that are trying to eat the baby seals, and clubbing them just makes them run away rather than killing them.

    Make a new version and resubmit - and keep resubmitting until something is accepted. Make a version where it is zombie app store reviewers that you have to club. Then once you get a version accepted, on a slow news day, send an email blast out to blogs about all the different versions you had to go through before getting in - free publicity!

    Your chocolate zombie seals look cute. They also look hollow -- like those Easter chocolate rabbits filled with candy. I'd really hate to club such a cute looking animal! Maybe make them less cute? More threatening?
