Publishing Guidelines
We maintain a curated, high-integrity Android gaming ecosystem. Every submitted APK undergoes comprehensive editorial and technical review before publication.
1Invitation-Only Developer Onboarding
Tapfolio Games is not an open, unmoderated self-registration directory. Creators submit an application via Publish Your Work. Applications are reviewed by Super Admin. Upon approval, developers receive a single-use DeveloperInvitation code to activate their publishing workspace.
2Technical APK Standards
- Supported Binary: Android APK signed with a valid v2/v3 release key. Debug keystore builds are rejected.
- Minimum Android OS: Android 7.0 (API Level 24) or higher. Target SDK must adhere to modern Android standards (API 33+).
- File Size: Maximum 150 MB binary payload per release version.
- Integrity Checksum: Every binary is stamped with an immutable SHA-256 hash verified upon receipt.
3Privacy & Sensor Permissions
Transparency is paramount. Developers must declare any network, advertising, sensor (camera/microphone), or analytics usage prior to submitting for review. Games requesting unnecessary or invasive device permissions will be declined.
4Comprehensive Contributor Credits
We celebrate every craftsperson behind the game. Submissions support unlimited contributor profiles across disciplines including Game Designers, Algorithm Designers, Sound Engineers, UI/UX Specialists, QA Testers, and Gameplay Planners.
