My name is Mier, and I am the cofounder of Infinite World Comics. I've been with this community for a long time, and I've seen the amazing things the developers are capable of. So I'm wondering, can anybody help develop an app for my company? My company is going to be distributing online comics, and we need an app for the customers to be able to view the comics easily. We will pay for the development of the app, but we are a start up company, so we can't pay like an insane amount. But we can pay you in gum. If you are seriously interested, please reply or send me a PM.

I have a unique and well thought out game idea that i am wanting to work on although i have no knowledge regarding the sdk for windows mobile or coding/scripting. All i can do is the graphics for the game and level design. If youre interested in working on an awesome game idea and making it a reality then send me a message or reply to this thread. Only serious inquiries please, and only those who dont expect to be paid for the work being as i have no money for hiring anyone. Anyone involved in the project will become partners and any income recieved will be split evenly throughout the entirety of its life. Hope to hear from someone soon.
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.
Fellow Canadian Android users,
I have just taken to twitter, facebook and e-mail to inform CTV, City TV and Global that we as android users are not happy with with them only offering iphone video apps. If you agree with me please do the same yourself and make this a social media issue. once we have enough people see it, it might just become a trend and blow up. then maybe they will develop an android app so we can watch video n our androids in canada. thanks for your help guys.
Squirrel
I will support you cause merely as a fellow citizen and to abate the discriminatory stance taken by ctv, city and global in appeasing apple customers solely. I should duly inform you that media outlets are dry and have little content worth any value, the good outlets have both apple and android apps
OP if you have an issue with Apple...take it up with them. XDA is not a social media forum...Thread Closed & Thank You.
We have a client wanting to add a game into their app. The app we have developed is for the insurance industry. The client believes by adding a game it will attract more downloads and increase returning users. We are not convinced that adding a game will achieve either. In our view people download an app to get to the point. An app needs to satisfy a direct need i.e. a banking app shows your balance. A game seems like an after thought. We are also concerned that the game will have to of a very good standard in order to attract use and not be ridiculed. With the likes of EA Sports spending millions on app game development this is a difficult area to compete. With this in mind we would consider developing a simply addictive game like Pac Man.
I would love to know your views on this subject. Do any apps exists that have managed to offer a game into a 'sensible' app and made it work?
You should ask your client why their app exists in the first place. Is the app designed to aid users conducting business with the insurance industry? Or is the app designed as marketing in order to draw in more potential customers. It is not a good idea to design one product to do two completely different things, as you will end up not doing either thing particularly well. If the client is hoping to increase their customers, developing a separate game app that is free as a marketing tool would be more feasible, as you would have one app dedicated to conducting business, and another app conducting marketing for the company.
agree

Hi Syung
Thanks for your reply. I totally agree. At the client meeting I suggested creating an additional game app to assist in their aim to reach a new target audience. It nice to have someone back your approach - thanks.
Hello all. My name is Joseph Truax. Check me out on LinkedIn. I'm the one with the suit. I'm fairly well connected to most of the big dogs on the planet, but I want to use indie talent to do a redevelop.
My game, Part 3: Dodge the Dots has well over 10k downloads total on Android and iTunes, but I had zero marketing in place prior to launch.
I have just received a multi million dollar marketing package that needs to be fully taken of. If you have not heard of the Ziosk, Google it. I get to put my game in front of 600k users daily, and there are only 20 games to play at a time. In more than 200 Chili's and Red Robins across the US. A very difficult platform to get involved with.
I'm trying to get Dodge rebuilt in Corona. All we have to do is recreate the current game, but change or update 3 critical elements, and we win.
Any interested party please respond. It's a real opportunity with minimal work. Just follow the current build and add a couple updates. A cake walk for you experts.
I hope to get some responses, and will pay the middle-men for the hook-up of a fantastic developer. All revenue will be split evenly by all parties involved.
So, here is the question: Want to help?
Thank you for your time and lets make money.
Also, to the moderators, I went to DevS and there was nothing there, so I hope this is the right place to post.
Best regards,
-Joe
hmm...
Is there a better way to come at this? I speak on these forums like I would speak to a person's face. I'm not trying to be a salesman, I'm just trying to make some legitimate money. So, any tips for me on here to get involved with the collective would be highly appreciated.
Thanks guys and gals.
Best,
-Joe
