Hi,
So I've been checking on the net to see what kind of sales one could expect from an indie product put onto the XBOX LIVE XNA club and from onsite PC refs.

How do you feel about royalties?

As a developper, how do you feel when a project offers you royalties as compensation?
I usually personally get the feeling the project isn't serious as soon as someone writes "We will share any profit we have..." etc, but I know there are legitima... |

Hello there,
I'm just a bit curious...
I've been hiring for a specific project of mine, and I found it quite easy to get programmers, musical composers, writers, designers of great talent (not just noobs) to get interested in the project... but f... |

I'd like to clarify the fact I do not expect to be paid upfront, but on a regular basis.
Also, I have my own projects underway already, but I understand there are a lot of "visionaries" out there without the appropriate management skills to r... |

How to prepare for a QA internship

I don't know if this will be any help to you, but I can safely say I secured my first job in the gaming industry by impressing the interviewer with my understanding in two main areas:

Indie Studio looking for Writer, Concept Artist & Art Director

Just a small heads up here.
As with most indie studio, you have no previous projects to show for. That's allright, but I'd recommend it that your ad here asks for someone to contribute with you on a project rather than call it forming a studio... |

I don't really believe in the seriousness behind an NDA, because, well, especially on an indie team, it has no jurisdiction. So far, I've left serious team members act professional, and it has worked just fine.
