Anyone know what the average price for 3d games are?
Thinking of turning a fps game, a tank game, into an android app. Or maybe even bring farmville to it.
I know it's not cheap, but wondering if anyone knew what the price range would be.
That's relative. Depends of a few factors, like the type of game, the level, features etc. Few of them runs for like $4.99, so goes for $9.99. Just search the market for keyword "3d" or "3d game" and see if I can get a pattern or something to work with.

lol I meant like developing the game itself. hiring a team of coders to make the app.
Lmao, my bad def.ly will be high. Thought u were saying u can or you are going to do it yourself and would like to know how much to sell it for.

For a **** game you are probably looking at a minimum of $3,000 US. For a quality job, at least $10,000.

I was thinking around there as well. Right now I'm thinking about taking all the zynga fb apps, and converting them for android. Most of the zynga apps are 2d, and not that extensive. I think i could get each one done for 3-5k. What you think?
@jahnile - I want to get it done, like get it coded by someone else.

they can cost a lot more. I was thinking of getting an fps based tank game done. I found it online on some website, and it had chat, you could buy upgrades and stuff. Was based in flash. Got a quote on getting it recoded for a fb app, and they wanted like 45k for it.
Now that's bread,so it all depends on how much u willing to spent.

That would be heavy gunner, already been done. Id like to see a fps online multiplayer game. Like doom or halo, something like that with stats, exp points, live chat and objectives I think that would be a huge hit. I know theres toon wars but something more realistic.
ANY FPS game in 3d is going to be an absolute minimum of 10k... you are looking at something more like 100k if you want to do what I think you do.

nah, the tank game I found was a lot different. It would have 50-60 different tanks with upgrades, missles, etc.. And you could move in any direction, and aim and fire. There would be about 5-10 people playing per map. The front end was made in flash while the backend was java (i think. from my analysis of the http packets, it looked to be java running).
I'll see if i can find a link. My friend told me about it first, and in order to check it out I had to make an account. After few minutes of "testing" it out, it got addicting. Was sitting their playing it for an hour or so.

be warned, VERY addictive. Although if i were to make that into an android app, I would make some changes to it like speed and controls.

It is a little annoying that you will have to keep paying for this game the longer you play, but I can probably get over that.

From what I've seen, majority of the work this guy did was import source code from other open-source emulators (ex. snesoid was based on snes9x). He took this and put them up for sale which is, I'm assuming the biggest reason that they were removed from the market.
It's like that Akaskriller dude, he takes the work of others and edits it a little bit and puts it up for sale (monthly fee, same thing) and the community gets all up-in-arms about it but when something like this happens its big bad Google at fault. It's nice of him to put it up for free but they should have been free from the beginning.

This is the biggest reason I refused to use yongzh's emulators. Now that they're available for free I might check it out but it's not high on my list of priorities. Heck, Plants vs. Zombies just came out on Amazon!
Im not so sure about his work being fake. His N64 Emulator was better than the other one in the market, the other one is rated with 2 stars, his was rated with 4 and a half i think. At least in my phone, N64oid works better than N64 Arcade. And now that its free, its even better! xD
It is still not free--on slideME it is $.30.

So the emulators are gone from the market.. So what happens to those who bought the emulators? I had bought psx4droid and snes4droid,. Now that they are gone, do the people get a refund or something?. Or is google promoting piracy?. Even the game Dropblock that i had bought also is nowhere to be found... If there were legal issues with these games then they shouldn't have been in the marketplace in the first place!!

You are implying more than just facts those.
I ended up getting the slideme versions when they were free, but I too was kind of bummed since I had already bought one or two of them. However if this guy was ripping off code and being douchey, well I am glad he was at least inconvenienced, sucks that we all end up out a few bucks too (although as long as the program is backed up the emulators will still work...).

I'm sure there is, but asking about warez here is only going to get you banned and have you ever though that the games might be basic because of people like you? what developer would want to make a game, if people are just going to steal it.
There are no decent games and even if there were good ones the controls will suck balls, the touch pads are a joke and who in their right mind would pay 1-10 bucks for a game that can be beat in an hour? I would just stick with fpse

Mass piracy has not stopped successful games from selling in any platform. The truth is that games are basic because we're not paying premium prices. A price range from 0 to 5 euro a pop won't buy you inventive stories, memorable voice acting and intricate, long gameplay. It will buy you Cut the Rope, Battle Bears or Eternal Legacy.
Too expensive? These games are about £3 at most, with a lot coming under that. The games are good, but the uptake of the play has been a bit slow so devs wont bother optimizing for it! Its down to Sony to get them to port their games across.
IMO the best games you can get are the ones that are pre installed on the play and Dungeon Defenders, other than that FPSE and the ~oid range are your best bets

I agree. The majority of people who pirate would likely not buy the movies/games/software anyway. I'm sure some would but most wouldn't. And the games’ being basic is because the devs are developing for the lowest common denominator which is the crapy touch screens. If we do get good Play Only games they will likely come from anyone with a steak in the Xperia Play.

QFT.
The touchpad/analog controls in some of the games are implimented in different ways. Some are true analog, and others are swipe. Some people like it one way, others like it another. I honestly wish they would allow an option to switch. However, there are plenty of decent games available for this phone, that although they may cost about US$5, that isn't terribly much. A coffee, or a game. even if the game is short, you would probably reach the same amount of enjoyment time from it.
If all else fails, there are some decent to good emulators out there and you can play all the old games you have from back in the day. NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System, NeoGeo, PSX/PS1, N64, etc. I think there is even some MAME goodness floating around for arcade carts/ROMs.
If you can't find a good game that works decently with the controller in that whole huge mess, then I suggest that maybe your criteria is set too high, and you would have problems finding suitable items on any platform at that high of quality requirement at that low of a price.

"You don't have to say that the phone is crap, useless, the controls sucks and so on, because they don't. "
Show me where I ever said that? Quit making **** up. I love the phone. The controls are great if the game is developed properly for them. I have stated many times that the battle bears game has them done right. I have said Gameloft games need better controls. Since I have 6 of them I have a right to state my opinion on them. Most of my posts are questions or helping others.
BTW "You're just a cranky little kid who can't figure out how to play with your controls" Is an attack.

Given that there's a system dump with the game in it, they won't give you any flak.
where can I find that system dump?
Probably in the first pages of the Development forum. I guess a proper search will make things easier. At any rate, you'll spend more tome searching the game than playing it, as it's really meh.
lol so much negativity... while I didn't start off liking it, I ended up finding a lot of merit in the Bruce Lee game. The silky smooth performance is a given, but adding RPG elements to a fighter has always been a real quick way to make me auto-appreciate a game... and the fact that it tries to be a tactical fighter instead of a button masher made it a bit sweeter.
I played it on iPhone, but touch screen fighters just feel like crap. Wasn't fond of it on Xperia PLAY at first either because; even with decent controls, it seemed impossibly hard... until I figured out that I was just playing it wrong. Now so many of my gripes are gone that all I can say I dislike about the game is how the life bars don't stretch wide enough to fit the screen.

I didn't find it hard at all: on the contrary, I didn't like it because I could beat it with my eyes closed. The "RPG" elements feel cheap and the game.is as shallow as a party girl.

Edit: I forgot to mention, take a look thru that site if you feel so inclined. I only look thru the tech category as that's where my interests are, I think you'll find it interesting. Nice to know there are still creative minds out there.
$5 per donation, yes. But they claim they need $50k to get the project released, and I call shenanigans on that.
Could I make something similar? Sure. I'm a professional developer by trade, have been for 25 years, and assuming I had the time available, I doubt it'd take me much more than a couple of months to write. A homescreen launcher that though, whilst a complex app, is not going to cost $50k to develop unless your programmers are massively overpaid, or they're way overstaffed; not really something Kickstarter actually meant for.
Look at all the other homescreen apps out there; some very mature and excellent products. Not seen ANY of them trying their luck on Kickstarter before, and with good reason, too.
I wish these guys' success, and I'll happily pay even up to $10-£15 for their app assuming it's as good as it looks on the video, but not until it's on the market. I'm not paying a single cent for vapourware, which is all it is right now.
theres a thread going in themes and apps, most likely where this shoulda been posted. Search is your friend.

Since it's not a real app, let the mods do their work

$50k for a kickstarter? First instinct is yes... it is too high. But look at Instagram.
ONE
BILLION
DOLLARS
For an app. Not a company, an app.
Throw all common sense to the wind now. But at least, $50k will buy the devs a lot of pizza and beer while they toy with this idea.
I hope this comes out, looks so good.
