Possible project starting, looking for people who can program in java / android
« on: July 31, 2011, 05:21:53 am »
I am looking to fund  a project in the near future, and am looking to use people from the bay12 forum as a sort of pact I have with myself. It'd be great to find one or two people up for making an android game we can post on the market. I won't go into detail, but if you like the prospect of a Bay12 produced game, and the possibility of making more, should this one gain some popularity, please drop me a pm or email me at tiamat_2@hotmail.com.

Kind regards.

-Alex

P.S: Before people start asking what it's about on the forum, I insist you either send me a pm or add me to msn to chat. If you are interested and feel like you can add on to the project, please let me know. I won't fluff up the forums with yet another game proposal that goes nowhere, so I am trying to keep this on a more or less silent note until I actually have something to show for it, out of respect for those who actually ARE making games and not just talking about them. Hopefully sometime in the near future a post about the game WILL be made. Thank you for your understanding.

Do you yourself know how to program in those languages, and intend to head the project?

1)  How long is the project, in terms of hours?
2)  Define "fund".

Once again, please send me the messages via e-mail. I will fund the project in the sense that I will let the people partaking in said project decide upon either royalties based on the sales, or a set amount of money per module released. With regards to my own programming prowess, my wife is a programmer, I am a writer, and the basis of the game is one that deals directly with my work, which would have me planning it out this unique concept.

Thank you for your questions, keep them coming!

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.  The obvious solution is to chain the baby up at the entrance as a kobold detector.

Yet you've so far refused to answer most questions publicly.

A non-programmer attempting to be the leader of a project like this is real-world-like scary.  Gotta hate when marketing and politics determine design decisions.

Anyway, I'm a reasonably skilled Java coder.  I'd be a lot more willing to or not to commit if I knew anything at all about the project, though.

Also, why isn't this on the Creative Projects board?
