NOW HIRING! (paid)

I giggle at threads like this one

 

a thread like this again? heh.

 

Hey, I'll be the music guy!

 

Get a load of this guy, making jokes

 

So, what kind of game? You don't spoil too much by just saying "Tower Defense" or "Linedrawer"... c'mon ...

 

Hmm... how many developers do you think you will need? I would maybe work for you (for free, because I won't be much of a help... I would see it as a good chance to practice App coding and learn a bit from other devs )

 

time for a new forum?

is it time for a new forum?

i am all for the younger and inspiring ones trying to build their own games; this is one of the many threads that have arisen; maybe - to remove the posts to noise ration the administrators consider setting up a separate section in the forum just for them? i dont know if it would help tho.

i think one of these guys should just invest in a domain; and setup a bunch of collaboration tools outside of toucharcade - it isn't hard to setup and you'll be left alone to do what you desire without the harshness of people who just dont believe anything will come out of it.

it takes more than a few willing people to design, create and publish a game. you'll find this out with time; presentation is one of the most important aspects; and just because you know some photoshop; it doesn't make you a design artist. i've been in this business for almost as long as the young ones are old; and i still hire artists and musicians to create art/audio/music for me. it costs money; money i hope to get returned with sales.

its all a big risk; but i'm having fun in the process. either your real about it; or forget it.

 

You little kids never learn, it's really too bad. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what you're doing. You should be ambitious and try to make big projects, but what you don't understand is it's a lot harder than you think. I'm 13 and would like to have an app out with my art in it, but I'm not going to do that by starting a huge company. You guys have no experience with the appstore and nobody can trust you, I know I wouldn't. What I'm doing is starting small. I'm working with one dev - yeah, you heard me. It only takes ONE developer to make a game - to make a game similar to Doodle Jump. Plain and simple. And, no, I'm not copying because the difference between my game and Doodle Jump is much bigger than the difference between Doodle Jump and Papijump. I don't expect this app to make anything, I just want to get an app out with my art. After I do people will trust me if I say I would like to make a big game that's going to take a lot of people, because they see that I already have an app out.

Edit: Hey, I'm a little kid too, but I seem to be the only one that understands you need to start small.

 

Hi Alright, the air hockey thing's believable. mflc actually PM'd me about it a while ago, but I'm working on something else. If that's the same app then your app has a chance. Just a little app like that already gives you a lot more respect in the forums.

 

I agree too. I started small with Bacteria Bash as my first game (very simple ) and then Cheese Collect, a little better which earned me more, and I'm working on my next game, which is much more advanced than both of them, not to mention that I'm doing contract work for others at the same time

@Yffum: mlfc PMed me a while back too, but I didn't want to do it.

I think he's a kid too, cause he uses words like plz and u, and he actually believed me when I told him I'll work for 3 pesos a day (it was a joke). He PMed back asking how much that was in US dollars.

 

I can't use abreviations? And it was a joke

 

I think he's trying to say it's not very proffesional.

 

It isn't, really. He actually believed my story of working for 3 pesos a day, and asked me how much that was in US dollars.

That's Mexican currency by the way.

 

I told you, I want to see a storyboard first before deciding.
