  • The game is complete and will receive no future updates from me, but will remain on sale for the foreseeable future.

    That’s the sticking point. A game could be complete, and receiving no material updates, but still need to be “updated”. Sometimes the app stores require a re-compile and you will be bound by the new terms.

    In the worst cases, a highly played but low earning game (like Flappy Bird) requires a recompile to update the minimum API level it supports in the Google play store. There are no gameplay changes what-so-ever. If you don’t re-compile and update it, Google will de-list the game. But you also can’t submit the update unless you accept the new terms.
