So the other day, a lightbulb went on over my head at work. That's where I tend to get my most...big crazy ideas, go figure I've experimented with game development in the past, had an awesome original project going but never got very far because programming is an absolute bear for me to understand. Then the software I was using went downhill and I can't use it anymore, so...the concept went to the back of my mind, perhaps never to return...
The idea I got was this: make it happen, and make proceeds go to the animal shelter I volunteer at. Thought about somehow making it available on the 3ds e-shop, but I don't know if it's possible to actually get paid myself when somebody downloads it. Flash is another option, with it, I can port it to apple and android, as well as it being on windows pc. A kickstarter will be started to pay for whatever I decide to use as well as somebody to make music for it. That's one skill I don't see myself learning...I'm not musically inclined. At all. But I can sprite and I bet I can learn to program if I tried. I know there are some musicians here, but will they want to donate their talent? I won't make them work for free...willing to haggle prices. And of course they'll be fully credited. ANYONE who helps out, whether it's music or programming or whatever, will be credited.
tl;dr
- When an indie game developer ports something to the 3ds, do they ever get the money when it's purchased?
- Anyone want to help with programming or music for a game and get paid and fully credited?
