this is pretty cool. A programmer buddy at our work decided to make an iphone game and it got staff picked by apple. He had this idea to do simple rock-paper-scissor, but with sumos, so i gave him some character sketchs

with that we got approval to go ahead and make the actual game to represent the company. plays good on the phone,, a lil quick on the web though.

its #4 on this main list

i did the characters and smoke, he programmed, and a designer handled the layout and UI stuff. took about a day for each of us, and then a bunch of small edits and tweeks.

any moneys in it for you?

other then my salary? no.
and i dont think it gets the company money directly, its notoriety for sales and getting more clients.

thats what work for hire means. you do things with a team, on company time, with company resources, for the company. so its the companies now. not mine or his.

though i might point out, since we come up with these ideas, we can come up with more, and as long as we do them on our time with our tools, they are ours.

havent seen it.. but i think i can imagine the storyline/plot

but its the price u pay as a tradesmen
you dont owe the carpenter anymore for using the floor he built you. and the architect doesn't get residule.. u dont keep paying for the music the artist wrote...nor do u keep paying the mechanic. its per job
however everyone knows who john Williams is and he gets tons of credit (bc he's awsome)

anyway u can play it here
ifonefun.com

you just make up name and pw. and once u make it up it will remember it.
so maybe think of a decent name and remebr the Pw so u dont have to make it up every time

I like your sketches better than the actual game, at least on the site. Nice style on the art.

yar that happens, mainly the flash line causes that bc there is no easy way to do a thin-thick stroke (not in a 1 day time frame that is)

ty though, if u liked the sketchs u should see the actual sheet of paper Cool

even a scan ruins drawings a bit.

oh oops yah forgot the link for online play

ah yes, well, about that. hey im all for it..... but there are many factors waramp

budget.
software limitations. (from what im told playback/lag would have been an issue)
download size

It'd be nice if the attack animations for scissors was a slice.. for rock -- the current one would work.. and for paper the wrap thing =\
