Short Summary
Hi all, my name is Joe. I have
a fantastic game i am building and i really need your help to complete
it. It's awesome and i just can't wait to get it out there for all to
enjoy.
The game itself is simple, meant for just passing the
time, if your at a bus stop or waiting for a friend or just sitting
around, bored. Easy to get started and easy to finish up. There is no
violence or sexual themes, just good wholesome fun, not meant to be too
complex, fun for all ages. However in saying that, the first few levels
will be easier, so at least the more novice or younger players still get
to enjoy it, but as you get through the first few levels, it will pose a
challenge for the more adventurous at heart.
The game is a bubble game, with lots of player interaction, burst the bubbles or at least try to.
Your contributions will directly help fund the games production, marketing and legal costs.
Everyone needs a dream, something to believe in, to work toward, a passion, otherwise what's the point.
What We Need & What You Get
We need $8,500
The money will go towards these things:
Legal work - protecting the game from copycats
Building the game - a professional developer will be commissioned, as i can't do it all of it
Marketing - (bulk of the cost) a never ending pit, creating pre-release buzz, getting the game out to reviewers and bloggers.
No monies will be used for living or other expenses, the games
development and release will take all of it, plus what i've already put
in.
A $1 donation will get you a huge virtual hug
A $5 donation will get you an electronic version of the rules and a
screen dump of a random game level, pre-release, so you get to see the
game before the world does and of course, a huge thank you and my
absolute gratitude.
A $25 donation will get you the same as $5 donation plus a mention in the credits.
A $150 donation will get you the same as $25 donation plus your
initials will be displayed on screen as a character is removed.
If i don't reach the total donation amount, any monies received will
first go to production costs, that way i can at least show it to all of
you.
The Impact
Although i have never
had to do it for myself, i've manged a few software development
projects, from conception to delivery. I have every confidence that i
will be able to oversee this project from design to development to
release.
The game will be built in Unity 3D, that makes the game
multi platformed, meaning it will run on Apple, Microsoft and Google
enabled devices.
The game will take approximately 2 months to
build, then there will be time for testing, then there is pre-release
marketing and buzz building, reviews by game bloggers etc.. then the
official upload into Itunes and the Android store.
Still not
sure whether to give to this project, well it's ok, there are lots of
worthy campaigns on this site. However feel free to contact me, i will
be happy to answer your questions.
