Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3 I am looking for a programmer or development team to complete a prototype of a Wii game to showcase at E3. The job would be a work for hire and I would require a non-disclosure before moving forward with communications about my game. I understand that this is a Homebrew forum, but I cant afford to play in the big leagues just yet and hoping someone here has the talent and ambition to compete with them. My first step is a prototype that will show game play. I need someone who can use the IR sensor feature of the Wiimote and apply those movements to objects in space. I have an artist on board to do the texture mapping and character design. What I am interested in now is just the game play. I don't have much money right now but have a 81 page business plan and some investor meetings in a few weeks. Otherwise I will need to trade my 1969 VW bus or 2001 BMW 650 to have the work done. I have been working on this idea for 10 + years and the technology finally caught up and moved from Hollywood to the living room. Thank you everyone for being so cool with open source. Someday (after this project) I will contribute to the work that you do.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43152#msg-43152Thu, 13 Aug 2026 17:02:06 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45603#msg-45603 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45603#msg-45603 scanff Ideas, requestsThu, 31 Dec 2009 02:17:44 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45602#msg-45602 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45602#msg-45602 ibmeruu Ideas, requestsThu, 31 Dec 2009 02:15:57 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45349#msg-45349 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45349#msg-45349

However, with a concrete proof of concept, it might not be too bad. Do you have any existing code? Any frameworks? Even something to port over would be better than nothing, I think.

Also, I would not recommend "faking" it. The media (and those on the Internet) is pretty good at sniffing out what is pre-rendered and what isn't. That would create backlash, I'm sure. I say save your money, and put it to use so you can be prepared for 2011 E3. First impressions are very important, so you need to make sure it's a good one!]]> dancinninja Ideas, requestsThu, 24 Dec 2009 23:36:20 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45123#msg-45123 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,45123#msg-45123ANYTHING you have!

Be it the Nintendo Ds(i), Nintendo Wii, Sony PSP, Sony Playstation 3, iPhone/iPodTouch, or Mircrosoft XBOX 360, Apple, Windows, or Linux you have the option to use an official SDK. The terms for being eligible for an SDK are different for each platform, so you'll need to research them individually. For the Nintendo Wii, they offer the ability to apply to buy an SDK here: [warioworld.com]]]> Arikado Ideas, requestsSat, 05 Dec 2009 19:31:14 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43584#msg-43584 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43584#msg-43584 Crisco Ideas, requestsSat, 05 Dec 2009 18:48:20 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43580#msg-43580 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43580#msg-43580

So this SDK you all are talking abut this is for WiiWare? I had no Idea that nintendo had an SDK.

its for all Wii software. what else would they use to make software.

Just need a programmer.
Im sure there are tons of people around here capable of getting the job done well for little. I'd personally be willing to work on it voluntarily (for free) just for the experience of doing it. However, I'd need someone infinitely more talented than me at these things to work with.

BTW, Be sure to have some media assembled (artwork, sound, etc.) before you're ready for a programmer to go to work.

EDIT:Oh yeah, and you should really consider getting an SDK. Its much easier to get things done with one of those than with devkitPRO. Also, just so you know, you have to convert whatever you make with the official SDK to run on the homebrew channel.]]> Arikado Ideas, requestsSat, 05 Dec 2009 12:38:52 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43561#msg-43561 Re: Game Developer Needed For Prototype completion before E3http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?26,43152,43561#msg-43561

No. I do not have the official SDK. One of the problems I must face. Can it be coded without it?

Yes you can code 3D with devkitpro but if you are really serious you should invest in the official tools.

Fyi-- My plan is to go to GDC and E3 with or without a prototype. If I do not get the prototype then I will "bluff" the audience.

By making a 3d animation simulating game play and have an actor demonstrate with a practiced performance that matches the video.

It wont be easy, But I think it can be done. Also I have a group of people who would be willing to show up and rally audience.

Wild people, and hot chicks, who can create a "what's going on over there" kind of response.

Im really serious about this, Its not spam. I had an investor meeting yesterday and it went well.

Just need a programmer.

I am willing to sell / trade everything I own to get this done.

This is my shot. My best idea. And I am sure it will work if I can find the right people with the right skills.

Aloha,
