Making a new Game

[Zak]

1. No-ones going to work for free
2. Gaming market is tough, will be very hard to make money
3. You need ALOT of coders to make a decent game
4. You do nothing, and yet recieve profit.
5. This isn't going to work.

I'm not working on the project until I get proof of decent Lingo coders,
and some more gfx staff >_>

3. You need ALOT of coders to make a decent game (You need a fairly decent sized team to create a new game without using a base (like 'Zetolic' used TheoWorld)
4. You do nothing, and yet recieve profit.
5. This isn't going to work.

Although if the game concepts new and exciting, you could make a fair bit. Hard to start off however, just offer jobs and free stuff... lol

gl on finding people..

Your project, your financhal burden. If people are gonna put time in, why should the risk going out of pocket, thats your job. Take out a loan if u need to, pay the staff, when its done and working make use the finances to pay back the loan and go in to profit.

Also Shockwave is somthing im starting to dislike, go with java its a much nicer platform :p

Andrew Gower made the first part of RuneScape Classic on his own.

Yes, but now runescape has alot of coders..

and Java, I believe is one of the hardest languages to learn.. I know alot more people though who can code in Java than Shockwave.

One of the first things you need to make a profit making business is actually cash.
Don't start on this untill you can pay coders & designers for their work.

Why do you think adults take loans first & then set up a business later.
Or loan first & then build the house.

You can't accomplish anything without spending some funds into your project.
Please keep that in mind.

Thanks,
Olivier

EDIT: & at the runescape thing.
RS classic wasn't a direct bullseye.
That guy had to work hard & get a team together to get his game going.
