Cassette Beasts Debuts on iOS; Android Launch Delayed

Cassette Beasts, the retro creature-collecting RPG, is now available on iOS, but its Android launch has been unexpectedly delayed. Developer Bytten Studio reports a last-minute snag with Google Play's approval process for a crucial patch addressing pre-release issues.

iOS users can begin their adventure immediately, but Android users will need to wait. The delay is due to unforeseen complications with the Google Play patch approval.

This setback is disappointing, especially given the game's highly anticipated blend of classic monster catching, battling, and open-world exploration. While these last-minute delays are unfortunately unpredictable, Bytten Studio assures players that the Android version will return to the Google Play Store as quickly as possible.

A Beastly Bump in the Road

Game launches sometimes encounter unforeseen problems. The current situation highlights the potential for Google Play's approval process to cause delays, particularly when urgent patches are required.

The recent prominence of alternative app stores raises questions about whether a broader release strategy, incorporating faster approval processes, might have mitigated this issue. However, the developer is optimistic that the Android release will be restored within a few days.
