Ok, very important things here. Is this just a concept? Or can you create a demo of this game to show people?

i cant really create the game….. i only have the series down as stories… so trying to get a programmer to put it out as a demo and then see what happens from there.

Well, if you can’t create the game yourself, all you can really do is suggest the game to current developers. You will have no rights to the game, as you just have the ‘concept’, not the game.

Your saying they just steal your idea and no credit? If they make the story with only the beginning then it will suck. Yea i dont like giving ideas out for free without where the idea came from…

No you would get credit. Silly fairies wearing pants… You could be in close contact with the graphic artists. But you won’t get a huge cut.

im gonna be going to culinary school so my job isnt wanting to be programmer, but my stories are fun and the story line would work pretty well. I liked how warcraft was before it went online and looked bad. The stories work as series and i wanna get it out there because it has much action and entertainment like a movie =D.

They would have to be pretty nice people to do that. The majority of money making companies see good game suggestions and run if they are not already patented.

What I would say is write them as books and publish them. That is how the splinter cell series started. So if you made them into a book first, they would owe you Royalties.

How long does it take for people to notice the books and make it a game? Cause that lord of the rings guy died before the movies came out lol.

True but he made a ******** of money before he did, just on the books. If the series was written as if it were supposed to be a game then developers would eat it up. Especially if it was selling well.

eh if i got time… Im starting over on the book I wrote cause I felt it could be more better. I figure developers would love a series of a new world with the war between the races over stupidity and the main balance between the devil and god.
