iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development With Client's Perspective Part - 2

As discussed in my previous article we have covered information on giving iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development to a company and getting regular updates and also getting the best cost and timeline for the development. As for those who have not read it, I am discussing all this with Mr. Robert and owner of sports consultancy firm and interested in getting his ideas converted into reality. We will cover his iPhone Game Development experience and also what he feels about the overall experience of development.

I asked him that as this was an idea what he is sharing, wasn't he afraid of losing it or afraid of getting it misused? Robert Said "Morpheous is pretty serious company when it comes to intellectual property security and rights. Even before I mentioned anything, after I sent them first Email, they contacted me with attached NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) this made sure this is the right team to work with. " What NDA make sure is that your idea and whatever data or information you share with the developing company is secure and they are bound to the agreement with according to law and cannot misuse or give it to anybody else. Once you get it signed for iPhone Apps Development or iPhone Game Development, it applies to all you do not need to be specific; it applies on any information or idea you share with developing company.

I asked, is iPhone Game Development different from iPhone App Development? What are the pre-requisites? "It is bit different then application development, you need to short list few things before you make forward with hiring a team. First and most important thing is what type of graphics you want? 2D / 3D in the game? Another thing is what type of game you think your idea gets convert into? RPG / Action / Arcade etc.? This will be important for Developer Company to know and also when you will upload the game on App Store." I asked him what type of cost we are looking for and timeline? He said" it will ne surely bit higher than normal iPhone Application Development, and also iPhone Game Development timeline would also be more. But still all depends on the game features and what amount and what type of designing needed. As my game is still in beta phase, it took about 3 months to get it developed."

I hope this information will vitalize the imaginations and idea you have in, which you want to get converted into the reality. Will come back with more of my views on the same and provide you more information which you can use when getting your mobile apps or games developed.
