Looking for Game Coder

Corona Classifieds Collaborations
#1

I am currently learning Corona and Lua but I want to get a game republished quickly.

The game was originally written in iPhone’s propriatary language but my coder screwed me over.

So, now I want to have it developed on all the devices using Corona/Lua.

I have the names and pictures of 5000+ animals.

I have 15K+ website addresses (3 for each animal) where they can learn about each animal.

I am wanting to make some games from this:  Example - animal hangman, picture solver, etc.  of course allowing people (probably scientists) to add more animals.  And allow people to suggest their website for more info about the animal.

Questions: 

  • How can I protect myself?  Ie - what prevents a developer (especially one not in America) from grabbing all my data and saying goodbye and developing it on his/her own?
  • Would there be any interest in a partnership on this?  How would the details work out?  I would like this to be on my account, ie game be under my license.

Any info/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you!

You could protect yourself by only giving a small chunk of the data to the developer. Only a subset of a few examples is needed to develop the app, later on you can add the whole set yourself. Adding more data should be easy if done right (even for someone unexperienced), with some config file or XML.

That said, like all things, if you want things done right with someone you can trust it costs money.
