Topic: Looking for INVESTORS (Read 746 times)

Usually any investors who go investing in such project are solely going on a blind investment without knowing the future of the project he is going to invest and what is the guaranteed that their funds are safe or even secured, lots of projects came with this strategy back then 2017 and they succeeded luring people into their unworthy and a wealth sinking project leave people in adject situation.

Perfect question. Firstly, investors wants to know that their funds are safe and as such, there should be some form of documentation and also the need to incorperate the business if the investors actually ask for it even though the blockchain space has loads of projects that are yet to be incoorperated yet are doing just fine.

How will the investors get their capital and also a plan for their profit share, these are necessities. You might have to get a lawyer to help you out with documentation if you need to.

I doubt if is possible to have investor to invest in your project, you know what guarantees' people that they are being played around because there are some other project that has used lots of strategies to come over here after which they never returned investor's fund and it turns out to be scam. Sorry to ask, is there any proper documentation concerning their investment strategies and to the terms which if they invest the period of time to wait for their investment.

I found that the transport tycoon deluxe game codes was sold in the past for 2,5 million dollars. So, my game is the same, except due to copyright I had to write my own codes. And it was at the beginning like a mission impossible.

Is it reasonable to assume that my game codes worth about the same much???

Yes, its going to be browser game. For PC, MAC, laptop, even tablet PC and Ipad nothing need to download. Steam would be a nice choice for versions on Playstation, Xbox, nindendo etc. But it'sgoing to be a nice challenge.

And a coin to make some money I guess.

But since I have a map, I can create other 2D games as well. Where players use bowls and arrows. It should be first one of the first game on internet where the player will be able to create his own maps, lower an raise the landscape.

So is this going to be an always-online game since you require a server, or are you referring to a website for people to download your game? Why not list it on Steam and allow people to pre-order it if you need funding? Some indie devs also open a Patreon or Kickstarter if I recall it correctly, assuming you at least have an MVP to show and not just a whitepaper. I still don't see why you need to create your own coin for this though.

after your game is finished . what are your next plans?

I think you need more than that. maybe beta test, advertisement, maintenance and alot more.
Most good crypto games have sponsorships with other companies so you don't have work alone

I was thinking to hire programmers on investor money, so this goes much faster. But right now all hard coding is done.

I build so far map editor. It's not a full game.i was thinking make that feature, so players can create their own maps. This editor almost a game without scenario. Will need a web site, music and to buy a server, may be not. Didnt get to that part, yet.

I dont know. I guess I don't for now.

So you don't need investors to complete the game - why do you need them?

Thanks.

I have created a new feature. Now the world map is only one and can be any size. That means no more local maps, no more province maps. Will be only one map per planet. 1 tile length is about 15 to 20 meters. One block 3 tiles long and 2 tile wide. The new problem is, it is impossible to build maps like that, so will need to make map generator.

And this is web browser 2D game. Will need to make it playable on Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo as well. I think it will be popular over there.

@op that sounds impressive to hear from you that you're almost done with your project with a one or two months to completion.

However just as @virasog has clearly said, you will be having some challenge with regard to your rank reputation in the forum but if you can give a good presentation about the project when completed which it will be great and convincing too if you add images and other necessary links when do so. Am sure some investors out there will be moved to give a shot.

Good luck to you.

I have my own coin. Now need to add the script into BNB network.

true, true.

This is not the point here that your project is a work in progress or it is almost done. The point is that did anyone invest with you in the project? At the start of the year, the way you asked for the investment was unprofessional way and no one would have shown interest in the project or the investment.

Now that you have developed the project if you can show us the project and then ask for investment, then someone may be interested but still, your Newbie status and no repute will remain a question mark for anyone who wishes to invest with you.

Working on it. Almost done. One or two more month and I show you first version of the map editor. Sorry, couldn't reply earlier as was busy on this project.

If I understand the meaning of investor according to the Wiktionary "a person who invests money in order to make a profit", and going by this no investor in his right mind is going to put his money into something that even you yourself can't provide proven facts to it's build up at least to show that your project have reach so and so point of completion but a lack of available finance to forge ahead.

 Now at that point it could be understandable for some investors to give some reasonable doubt by showing interest to invest but rather what you're dropping is mere words and promises and you expect people with brains to pick interest into something that with your statement it's
already  looking like a mirage. OP please give us your best shot if what you claim to have is something that's true.

Well. By letting them to know that there is a new project and because it's not finished investors have time to think about what o do ahead. Soon there is a game engine coming out, they run the project since 2014, and they  will have a coin soon. Another opportunity I let you know when it will be done.

The problem is that there is nothing for playing yet. And the OP wants money right now. You offer a good decision for at least demo-version but all the OP can show - several pictures of landscape and a piece of code.
And as for me even the OP want to attract investor he has to show something interesting, some animation, some actions that the gamer can make.

The investment is obviously not safe or secure, only a brainless person would invest their money and trust into a person or a project like this which has no head or toe but is only an incomplete concept created with words and promises for the future. Viable business ideas don't involve collecting investments a year before the development is completed.

A person would rather spend their money buying and holding Bitcoin when they are cheap instead of giving them away to a complete stranger with a broken business idea seeking for money.

If gaming is really your niche you know how gaming platforms work and how they monetize even if they offer free play, they offer free to play to invite people to play and see how good the platform is, they usually do that on the first 3 levels but if they want to level up more that's where they paid subscription or they have to buy stuff or armors that players can use to continue fighting to another level.
They can also sponsor or show ads from time to time to their members, gaming platforms cannot sustain themselves if everything is all free, there are available options they can do to monetize their platform.

So what's the guarantees that the investment is secure if is going to take a year before the game will be ready? Do you have any proves of developing the process or progress to show such investment is secure?

Yep. Several screenshots with classic landscape and a part of code don`t cost something as for me. I can suppose that he made some work and proud with it but it is not serious to attract some money. I need to make some research and with such screenshots what can i analyze? Nothing.

Is that mean if your game was not a gambling based game? That being said that you were developing a common game and then you were giving permission for investor to explorer the ways to make money from your game, right?
Is not it your responsibility to make the game will be gambling based game? You're seeking funding and then you were not even developing a gambling based game.

I don't even think there will be a gambling provider interested with your game. Why don't you continue to develop it until it reaches MVP?

It's not related to the gambling based game and it must not be on this section.

am not against any business opportunity because we all wanted to have this but asking for investors in your status? you have not even stablished your name here yet seeking for others to put money on your project?
that is an advance plan mate, best that you should have at least collateral in this offer or else try to find somewhere else that you can use this script of yours to gain trust from others but this forum will not give you any.

but it is good that you tried mate, Goodluck .

You can just throw your idea here and think that investors will simply put their money on your projects. And with the current situations right now, bear market, although price is going up, but there is still banking crisis everywhere, not sure if investors are willing.

But in any case, there is board that you might have to look at, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=12.0.

Usually new ideas, new projects by developers are introduce there so you may want to check it out and see, you knows, maybe someone will be interested in your concept.

Best of luck!

The person who made this topic thought that there are many members here who are stupid or easily fooled in their thoughts, he did not know that there are many people who are smart and know about such things.
I think the op is just trying to see if many will fall into his trap to scam this forum. And I think he saw that he had nothing to gain from the post he made, so he didn't give a replay to those who commented on it.

They make profits from ads and upgrades, and they allow people to play for free so they can experience the features but there are limitations so to take out the limitation and use the other features gamers need to upgrade and buy pieces of stuff to power up their game.
A lot of gaming sites are like this, serious gamers will not hesitate to spend if they have great features if you think you have a good model then go for it.

Well, this is a bit strange that you will find the investor now and will contact him again after a year to invest in the project / game ? What if that investor who is willing to spend in the game, may not be willing to do so after a year later or he who has funds now, may not be possessing the same funds in the next year 

Also, when you game is not ready, no one wll want to invest in its marketing unless they see how the final product will look like.

I would suggest to first completely develop that game and once it is ready, look for investors.

You need a good sales speech. Include what investors have in there, the terms and how it will be conducted and many more things that will convince people to take out their own money and give it to your pot.

You also need a somehow working version of the project for others to see how it works, what future it has things like this.

Marketing is a big part of any project. Even before looking for an investor, you need a partner who can do all these public relation things and you can focus on programming.

Its still on developmental stage which op did make out some post about some screenshots on here
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.61955126

Its really that not shocking that it would really be just simply ignored considering that investors arent that dumb on shelling out their money on something which is sh*t.
This is why its really hard to find out investors online even if you do provide some good presentation on the current development of the site.

The forum has got the Securities section for which the threads and posts there are all about startups, companies or people that has got business ideas.

As you ask for some investors, you should have some initiative first to show that you're working on something. But I guess that this is the reason why you'll just contact anyone who's interested in private for you to do the sales pitch on them.

Try also those angel investors websites, there are many if you search for them.

I am curious to know... is this game will be related to gambling? I assume it's a yes since you had it posted here. From that, how will you incorporate gambling with this game?
Also on what systems will it be available to play? Let's see if this game is a good one.

I'm not sure if I understood your question correctly, but it seems to me that you are curious about the business model utilized by free-to-play games to generate revenue for developers.

Generally, a game can make a profit if it is able to attract and retain a large user base, monetize effectively, and provide a high-quality gaming experience. Some free-to-play games rely on in-app purchases to make money, while others may use advertising or sponsorships to generate revenue. It's also important to consider the level of competition in the market, as well as the target audience and their willingness to spend money on virtual goods or other in-game purchases. However, success is never guaranteed and many free-to-play games fail to generate significant profits despite being popular among users.

I guess he is in a very early stage of developing and has not thought about business planning at this moment. However it also seems like his proposition is something that can hardly be monetized at all and also he has not even explained what you will own for your investment.

Why do I feel like this this a wrong place for this topic? Because you are talking about a 2D strategy game, isn't that a blockchain play to earn game? I believe that should be in altcoin discussion section, players have to run the game to make money, correct me if I am wrong, so this is a play to earn project.  You can't do this on your own, you will need to hire game developer experts and yes you news some funding partners that can help you on your journey because you will spend some money getting this game up and running. Ask from a friend or someone who can see your ambition in the family and also have the money to help you.

why asking money/crypto in a forum, without a business plan or an amount that you need for your investment or a demo or anything similar or any kind of agreement provided?

generally question, it should not be more easy just get funded by a bank or by friends and relative?

If you are serious about raising about funds then you should present a demo of the gameplay or say complete demo explaining about what the game is and how you plan to manage the funds and whole process.Getting funding is not a easy task as you need team for that and revenue model also because investors will seek profits also so do you have one? Try contacting people who will put funds as your partner in the starting phase and hire team for marketing and development that will grow instead of looking for direct funding in my opinion.

And if OP writes messages, then it would be worthwhile to provide some links so that those of BTT users who are interested in game development processes could at least somehow evaluate the work on the game itself.  Those pictures, and fragments of codes that the OP gives, in my opinion, are not enough to understand at least something clearly.  I do not rule out that primitive games may be of interest to someone, but you still need to at least see something significant for yourself in order to at least somehow assess the amount of work and its value. 
Otherwise it's all empty talk..

Hi bro I don't know what you are talking about but I will say that Gaming industry is way more bigger than you think. And as you know that I was very fond to gaming like GTA vice city, Fortnite, Tekken 3 and such other games and that's why Game developing requires Hundreds of hours to do so.
By the way I can also make simple game that could be so much boring. If you really want to make a game than you should be a developer not only writing messages.

I don't understand OP looking for investors but he didn't do any good strategy to attract potential investors.

That's why he is criticizing other members here on the topic he made because apart from the lack of information, he has yet to show a proper platform for what he is offering. He should think carefully about what he is doing here.

How many game can make profit if most of games are free to play.

As for me - it is to early to search investor. I don`t see anything interesting yet in these screenshots. It must be something about demo-version, which is possible to play.
PS. I don`t think that it is good choice for the network game - such kind of games more interesting for solo gaming.

Focus on development when it's ready you can only look for investors in this forum, so it's difficult to get investors here if you only rely on screenshots or the like, you need to show proof of work and results of the game you created. I'm sure if you can build it and show it when everything is ready, people will invest in your game, so it's best to focus on development for now.   

Hey OP, before you go knocking on investors' doors, focus on getting your game to a presentable stage. You gotta show them that you're all in and have a solid plan for success. It's not just about having an idea - you gotta put in the elbow grease to make it worth their while.

Based on what we've seen so far, you haven't demonstrated a significant amount of progress with your project. From our perspective, it looks like you've only dabbled with the map editor and taken a few screenshots. This level of development is insufficient to warrant serious consideration for investment. I encourage you to put in the time and effort needed to show tangible progress before seeking out potential investors.

Remember, friends, it is not easy to gain the trust of investors here because it requires a lot of detailed planning and proof of the project you want to build or develop.
Investors also will not give their money easily for investment if a project cannot provide multiple benefits so that whether he is able to provide everything that is requested or desired by the investor so that he wants and believes in the project he will build.
Developing a project is not an easy job because considering that there are many programs that have been carefully designed and have succeeded in getting investors but failed halfway during development.
So you have to consider in advance all the aspects that are needed and you have to do a lot of research so that the program that will be built can be or successful in the future.

Try to post your project here in this board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=12.0 maybe you'll find some investors there considering it's the right board for posting. I think there will be still some interest on that game for some specific investors but if I were you try to post more information or some screenshots of that game you're trying to sell on us, words won't do nothing.

2D games are old fashioned games which do not attract play like 3D to 4D game graphic design. Well since you are good in it you can use to create some games and market the games out for profit. I don't think people will be interesting to invest on the 2D coding with you here.

Let me give you a very good advice, since you good in game coding, then establish a school or a tutorial classes, make flyers and banners then invite people to attend the extra moral class to acquire more knowledge and there you can make money to start you project. But if you are waiting for users here to invest, I doubt it, if there will be any.

OP go develope you casino or whatever you are working on to a good presentable stage before thinking of looking for who to invest in your project. This scenario just looks like a situation whereby  a farmer want to harvest and goes to the farm without his or her harvester what do you think would happen? Do you think the farmer would be able to make a harvest on farm without any harvesting too or equipment? This situation is likened to be your current situation OP. If you must get an investor, you should be able to invest in your project by starting to develop it to some certain stage meaningful to be able to present to investors so they will know you are serious about your efforts. Anything outside of it, you are really not ready for deal.

     -   You know, mate, what you are saying in this post is not detailed, if what you have done here is not enough, how can you attract investors with what you have done.

Let's reverse the scenario, you are the investors who will read what you are saying, do you think you will be attracted to this message of offering to an investor?

I agree with you - there is no information about the project and who is developing it. OP has shown us pictures from the editor with almost nothing on them. These pictures are useless for future investors. Besides, it looks like a scam project. I would warn against investing in OP's game until he provides more detailed information about the project and how he will spend investors' money.

Than in such situation accured, right now looking for people who are interested to invest. And when in next year game will be ready I will contact you back and let you know that the game is ready for the show room.

That's why I need an investor, so he will find how to make money with this game. To be honest too busy to think about I right now. Need to buy a server and run it. And anyway not now and not tomorrow's.

The investors look for profits always. So if your gambling site can provide sufficient profits to their investors, then I am sure many investors will show interest to invest in your site. Moreover you need to also provide something unique and attractive at the same time. Else no players will play in the site also. I haven’t also played any 2D strategy games which involves bets and gambling, so I am sure the game will come out to be unique and interesting. It will be great if you show the demo of a game before raising any investments.

I would disagree with you that what is done so far is nothing. The map is completely ready for the game play, and huge maps can be playable in javascript browser game. To come up with idea of codes to do the map was super hard and took me 6 month of thinking. Now working on the menus, so one code would be able to open many menus and will start debuging raise and lower the land. Doesn't work properly.  I didn't start the networking as I dont have concept of complete network game, yet. That is why I wanted to find investors, so the game would build faster.
I plan to setup phpAdmin or Node sever. Perhaps phpAdmin may be at the beginning as it is easier than Node. Need a dedicated server, the rentals are very expensive.

Also since im alone is doing it, it might take more than a year to finalize all gaming code and make game ready for thre market. Might be need some one with networking skills to reduce the amount of time taken.

It would be nice to know who wants to participate and invest before the project completed. As if I complete all by my self, why do I need investors for after that. Any way the most difficult tasks with the code is done. Now will be easier stuff for programming.

At this moment I don't know how much money needs for the projects, because everything so far I can do it from home at my computer for free. But for sure in the future might be such opportunity.

OP this is near nothing as there is nothing presentable here. I will suggest to you just as others have done to start working on your project. It will be nice that you start up the project with your own funds so as to be fully committed to developing it to a certain stage of operation before thinking of looking for investors to invest in your project. You have a good idea and it is a good business for profit making but the possibility of investment from investors at this stage is narrow just as it was earlier said, scams do happen through this pattern so people are skeptical and being careful these days as not to be scammed of their hard earned resources by scammers.
At this point what I will advise you to do is that you work on your project and have something reasonable to present to investors.

You don't show enough proof so it shows many are not convince on your explanation here. So try to give more clarification or enough supporting details to make us find it worthy.

Many scammers attempt to scam using the same words which try to convince the investor but they never get any good response from their post.

There are many investors who are interested in investing in your game but you haven't posted enough information here so they don't know how to invest. What amount you should invest, how much percentage interest you will give later and various other information if you show through this post then those who want to invest in this game of yours would think of investing in this game of yours. Hope you will post a reply again with different information.

You should do research on how to raise funds for new projects.

Even shit projects find this easy to do this days.

Start a Kickstarter or find a launchpad platform, since the coding is still ongoing it shows that it's not near completion yet.

The easiest way to go about this is implementing a token, make sure it has useful purposes for the project, and raise funds through launchpad.

Find marketers, and advertise the project, then do some campaigns.

So do you have a clue about what kind of game you intend to develop? Because I think that should be your number one detail before even starting coding.
So if I may ask, how much do you need from investors? As I think it would have been more better if you are specific.

While secondly, what do the investor stand to benefit from your game development? And how about you go seek a loan from bank to enable you to launch your game, make profit, an go about paying back your depth. Since by virtue that you are just a newbie on this forum who has no reputation, I doubt if anyone will be willing to risk his/her hard earn BTC.



There are limit at times to what A.I can do, and thanks you could find one. But moreover, I'm I the only one who tried viewing this codes and only 2 could open out of 10, am I? Just asking...

Exactly why I never picked so much interest in writing a comment or making any willing contributions to it.
I'm very interested to knowing how OP intends to monetize the game his building and since his asking for the help of investors, I'm sure he knows that no real investor would wanr to invest money in a project they're not sure of and basically they would want to know how much they will be getting in return so OP should take out time to figure all of this out from how much he will be needing to how much he is expecting to payback on investment.
I love the ideas if the game and I must confess that you're song a great job and you aould start a campaign to raise funds if you think that might help.

@OP since you're lack of money to build your project, it's better if you create your own token and create bounty campaign to raise the money. If you're looking for someone in this forum who want to give his money to you, I doubt it since user in this forum isn't that stupid for trusting a newbie without any reputation.

But this thread was placed on gambling board, what is the relation between your game and gambling?

This. In addition, the OP should be more specific in specifying how much money he needs, what he gives in return, whether it is equity or whatever, what the plan is to monetise the game and so on. No serious investor is going to consider investing with the little information he gives in this thread.

Better still finish up and come up with something tangible before talking about investor because at this stage of development, no investor would want to spend or put money in system that is not yet functional. OP you should know that as i have said. These days a lot of scam just happen this way so therefore investors a wary of people who come up just as you done to request for funds to complete or start up a project.

I dont have complete story, as an investor you can desire any scenarios. I'm able to show you how how far I am. Right now I'm building map editor, so there no actual game yet. But, editor is very close to a complete game anyways. Finished map coding.  Now it's possible to play any size map in the javascript browser.  Can load 4096x4096 maps. Was not easy to do that at all. Even chatGPT was helpless. Just want you to know the difficulty of such map coding.
The game is made using PointJS animated game engine. Why animated, well cause I decided to build the game as animation game.

Many is interested to invest but they want to see a product running first because its hard to trust any words saying that building a platform or bettong site like this and they can't deliver and worst the intention only by thread creator is to scam people. Many investors see so many scams so they will not easily invest on idea so best to create to show something relevant thing to make people believe on what you are offering.

OP I see you are a new bie here with few activities. I see your offer is nice and a good one but you did not make any introduction of yourself, I believe for you to have placed such offer, you must have had such deal before why not include or attach your portfolio here so we could see and have clues of your past records if they are ok to go with. This post will not in any way give you your desired results as it does not convince very well to invest in your project. I need something feasible. I really do not have conviction of this you have posted here. Kindly do well to update us here with more information about your project and what we should look out for. State your terms of agreement so we could know and if it interests us we invest and if we want adjustment in your agreement terms, we negotiate. This is business, you have to spell it out.

I've always been a fan of games like Civilization and Age of Empires, so any game that has a similar gameplay style would be right up my alley. I'm curious, though, what do you mean by investing in a game? Like, investing money into the development of the game? If so, I think you'll have a better chance if you start a Kickstarter campaign or something similar to raise funds for game development.

Will this game offer players the ability to put or place a bet, and the possibility to win or lose money in the process of play?

If the answer to the question above is No, then personally, this thread does not belong to this board, as it has nothing to do with gambling...

And to answer your query, no body will invest in something or what they know nothing about, why not talk to your friends, family members, show them what you are building and see if they will be willing to invest, pick up from there first.

Hi. Is there any one who is still interested nesting into 2D networking strategy game?

Building 2D strategy game for browser in javascript. With the landscape to Transport Tycoon Deluxe. All going well with coding. If inever finish game will be playable in for PC browser and android. Off course the game will be different in scenario than originalmtransport tycoon. Only an isometric map and menus will be simular, but the rest can be anything else. The land can be raised and lowered. Let me know.
