Charity boxing help - for all XDA members

Hi guys. i am happy member of XDA forum - currently owner of SGS2
i would like to gently ask for any support i could possible get.
I am working for Alrington HOTEL TEMPLE BAR in Dublin(Ireland) - really great company btw.
And since last month we have launched great competition - exhibition in the name of 3 charities.
MAKE A WISH IRELAND
THE NATIONAL CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
THE PUNCHERSTOWN KIDNEY RESEARCH FUND
I would like to ask you for some small donation. Any help will be higly apreciated.
We made a "plan" to raise 16.000€ in about 8 weeks time. I have asked everywhere i could and i am also hoping i might get some support here as well.
We are also making a competition that is taking place at 02. october 2011 - everyone is very welcome to come and see it - it will be a whitecollar Boxing event of staff that is involved. there will be more than 700 people at present - watching us fighting against eachother the fight will take place at LOUIS FITZGERALD HOTEL IN DUBLIN - Naas Road.
I hope the admin will fully understand and any futher info can be presented. Any details about the competition can also be published. I can provide my name and personal details and i can promise that all funds will be going directly to the charities on the day of the event.
I will be really happy if someone could help a bit. Its not big deal and it takes only few seconds to donate. Even few cents would make the diference. Believe me!
Thanks for reading
Best regards
Ed
PS: all the names - or nick names will be published with the amount that they have donated.
Help guys if you can - togheter we can make a change

Republique: Extremely promising game needs Kickstarter funding for an Android version

Game developer Camoflaj, led by Metal Gear Solid 4 producer and Halo 4 creative director Ryan Payton, are making an awesome new game for mobile, and they are using Kickstarter to fund it. Take a look (check out the video!):
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/486250632/republique-by-camouflaj-logan
It looks to be the first truly promising "real game" for mobile.
Sadly, the game is currently announced for iOS only, but I backed it anyway. I noticed many backers in the comments asking for an Android version, so I emailed Ryan asking about it. Here's what he had to say:
"Thanks for the AWESOME email. I totally hear you regarding Android.
We definitely want the game on Android, it's just a matter of funding and resources for us. If funding goes well, it'll be a natural step for us to do an Android version. I sincerely want you to be able to play this game.
Thanks for writing in, my friend.
-rp"
So, if Android fans back this game and indicate that they want an Android version on day 1 in the project's comment section on Kickstarter, we will guarantee that this extremely promising game comes to Android.
This will also send a strong message that Android users are serious about games and are willing to pay good money for great games.

No offence m8 ...... i can tell that your all puppy pissing it's self excited about this revolutionary game.
But your talking garbage when you claim
"we will guarantee that this extremely promising game comes to Android."
The quote you posted from the developers DOES NOT say anything of the sort, all it makes is an extremely vague 'Aspiration' to bring the game to Android ........ to anyone with any real experience of corporate doublespeak all it actually says is 'if, maybe, could, we would like to'. Their concept blurb says NOTHING about Android at all
Also your title is completely misleading ....... the entire concept needs funding (which it won't get) just to bootstrap the iOS version, never mind Android. Pledging money at this stage gives not even the vaguest suggestion of supporting development of an Android version
I'd also like to point out that devs with a track record like these guys have really shouldn't need to use distributed participatory funding sources as they should be able to go direct to big games publishers and get all the funding they needed ....... if the idea is any good. Only reason i can logically put forth for using this type of fan based funding is to avoid being under the thumb of a publisher .. but these guys have enough industry weight to negotiate a hands off development funding deal anyway ...........
Further i can understand gamers getting all 'am involved in the dev industry' excited about this type of proposal, kids get excited about all kinds of crap. But the minimum bonus pledge is about twice the cost of a top price Mobile game, am not even going to comment on how much it costs to get awarded a hoody or a signed piece of junk from the devs.
What i would like to know (but really can't be arsed to research, as i really don't care enough) is what happens to the pledges when this proposal fails to achieve its minimum funding requirement .........
I'll state right here right now no way will they make $500,000 ...... if they do i will add a banner to my sig that says something like "République developers kicked my ass please support this project it is of galactic significance" for 6 months or something.
Being positive it does sound like an interesting game concept, somewhat like a hifi next gen version of the old early 3D Amiga game interphase, and i definitely like the "non-sexualized female lead" concept, can't help the sneaking suspicion that "non-sexualized female lead" is pretty naive though game kiddies love tits and ass ... fact.
If you want to support developers then choose to support genuine up and coming indies who genuinely need the support as they do not have a track record that can delivery serious industry funding.

[WIP][GAME]Blitzball Android

Hello everyone,
i would like to announce that id started to work on a new Game.
Some of you may know Final Fantasy X and Blitzball, im a hughe fan of it.

Omg, this would be definitely the game I've been looking for since I purchased my first android! I am just a huge fan of final fantasy and blitzball was just amazingly addictive. I wish I had knowledge in programming for android to help you, but it's not the case...but you have my full moral support! And if the project were to be realized, be sure that you would have my donation!

Jonesing Games to the rescue
This is an amazing idea, although this thread seems old and dead. However, I'd like to revive this project . Does anyone know about possible copyrights and trademarks surrounding Blitzball?

Thinking of making a Platformer

Like the title says i am thinking of making one, i want to use unity 3d's now free mobile engine. was thinking of making a sorta like Oscura or Limbo. i would like the first game we do to be free but possibly we can make more games if people are happy with this game. to be able to put on the play store it costs 25$, i dont know if we all have to but we will figure it out please pm or post reply if you would like to join in

There might be better places to appeal for support, it would also be wise to find likeminded people first, who have an interest and some knowledge who can help you. As for unity, as its free, you would be better off making the majority of the game first before you ask for the cash investment.
