[font=Arial, sans-serif]Hero and Zombie!



Brief description:

Cranial Acid, a team of just one artist, is looking to expand and profit. We are looking for the right programmer who can assume the role as lead (only) programmer.

Hero and Zombie is a unique game which aims to take users back with its retro graphics, while adding new and different features. Currently, the game is in Live Wallpaper Mode and I'm looking to turn it into an actual game by updating graphics, fixing a few bugs, and adding gameplay elements.

Currently some new g

raphics, and the original code are already available.


However I believe it needs to be cleaned up some and optimized for newer devices.

Currently the app is generating about 20-40 a month, I have no doubt we can generate more once we add some actual gameplay modes. (Survival, Story, Exploration Mode) The only thing that is required is a loyal programmer who is able to take us there.

The game will be somewhat of a cross between Double Dragon and Earthbound. The tone is set to be simple, yet frightful. Skills, Stats, equipment, we'll do it all. Please be ready.

If revenue starts flowing in, and both parties agree, we can seek further freelancer help while still keeping our core Revenue Arrangements. I say this because in the future I would like to add multi-player functions in order to truly round out the experience.

[font=Arial, sans-serif][font=Arial, sans-serif]Android tablets and phones
Possibly Iphones or Web based if we can come up with a good plan.

[font=Arial, sans-serif][size=2][font=Arial, sans-serif]Compensation:
[font=Arial, sans-serif]Immediate Revenue Share, [size=2]Please see additional info
Eventually, if a solid programmer is found I would be willing to do 50-50 split.

none

Additional Info:
[font=Arial, sans-serif]We still need to figure out what percentage split would truly be fair for this type of project. Taking into consideration everything that's already been done. However, I believe once the programmer showcases enough work/progress, we can begin to start splitting evenly.

[font=Arial, sans-serif]I also understand everybody has their dream project, so I've debated of doing a cross-team situation, including both studios solidly branded in the app preview. (if you already have one) Just in case you ever decide to branch out, we'd both have some credits established, because lets face it, who wants to work for somebody else for the rest of your life.

Sounding a bit to much like a Master-slave relationship, but good luck finding a programmer.
Just a wannabe grinding in this game we call Life.

I had expected to get this type of reply, and although it might sound like that...please take into consideration the following


I have already invested my own money to get the project to the state where it is now, so it doesn't make sense to start splitting profits from "DAY 1"
I am not going to give my source code to just anybody, thats why I am looking for somebody trust worthy.
I am looking at this project like a small business and I am going to try to be resourceful
If a company ever did become successful, I would hope not all employees think of their bosses as their "Master" (Boss) and they are "Slaves" (Employees)

Anyways, I have not even made back a fraction of what i've put into this project, I think that puts me way below the "slave" totem pole

Once I feel that I can trust a programmer not to run disappear and do his own thing...and leave me hanging, (with the big possibility of taking my hard work) then I have NO problem negotiating profits.

I didn't want to explain myself too much in order to weed out those with the "wrong mind set"

Thanks for allowing me to go into more detail though.

I tried your app,

I would suggest starting over.

I LOVE the idea, but wasn't at all impressed with the actual background.

Starting Over because the idea was badly implemented?

Or just because the background image wasn't very appealing?

I ask because I currently have a freelancer working on an update that allows for the background to change to resemble that of the users current time zone.

I have also added some functionality that allows the background to display users personal photos.

I haven't added any real gameplay elements because I am still determining the direction I am trying to take the application. In other words, the app is nowhere near where I want it to be. So Im confused as to why you would suggest starting over?
