Bob,
First, congrats on taking it this far.
It would be a pity to see this thing die. Here are some thoughts:
- Publish as is, ask for donations to finish
- Find someone who has time to finish it, and limit your time to 1-2hrs/week review.
(Could be a college kid to someone on CP who has time, or just lacks some experience)
- Publish the source to CP, and write an article about it (or ask someone to). This would
serve as a great tutorial for others wanting to learn how to write games. Be careful about
some of the resources that you paid for. Not sure if you can release them.
- Find a game publisher (like BigFish) and see if they are interested. They might have access
to developers who would finish it and they would include it in their offerings.
Just thoughts. Hoping something catches your fancy. Be a shame to walk away from all of that work.
Kirk Out!

Thanks for the tips!
Yes, it's had a bit too much time spent on it just to waste away. Hopefully in will be in the Windows Store soon.

The game looks cool enough - but the music is awesome!
Is it an original composition - or something from the swing / ragtime era? What's its name, and do you know of anywhere I can find the sheet music?
|
|
|
|
|
I too must have more background on this music!
Which is to say, based on this video I'd pay a couple bucks to play, at least to have the music. I have a weak spot for this.

Just to say that I've replied to the original post, in case you didn't get a notification!

That piece is called Speakeasy by Paul Freitas. I think he's got an album in iTunes with it on. It's also a library entry, meaning that it's available for licensing for use in film/TV/adverts or in this case games. I have purchased a worldwide license which means I can freely distribute it within the app, so long as its embedded and not a floating mp3.
I haven't a clue whether you could get sheet music for it, I'd be surprised if he ever expressed it that way.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

Administraction, true or false?

I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Is that an administrative retraction?
|
|
|
|
|
Why not an 'administrative distraction'?
This is true; the administration is always distracted, isn't it?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
True or false?
Must be some new Boolean variable I am not familiar with.

So there are 2 local gas (petrol) stations - Thrifty and Mobil.
Thrifty sell gas for $3.29 a gallon. Mobil, on the opposite corner, sell it for $3.49.
Why would anyone use the Mobil station??? I get if you have a Mobil card or company account but why would anyone willingly pay 20c more per gallon?
Note that I paid $2.01 a gallon about 4 weeks ago at a local Ralphs (usually matches the Thrifty but I get 20c a gallon discount per month if I spend enough on groceries).

We still have < $2.00 gas...
