If I had the ability to pay up front, I would gladly do so. Unfortunately, I do not. I am very willing to discuss terms that are NOT the 10% for the first year, however. How about 50% for the first two years and then 10% for the next three?
Additionally, if you knew how ludicrously simple the idea is, I doubt you'd see it as a risk at all. I'm just trying to get an idea off the ground, maybe put some money in the pockets of myself and a developer, and keep moving forward.
I get the sense that people really want to know what the idea is before committing. I just can't do that. I'm not asking you to trust me, but this is one of those things that if you were to know, you'd slap your head and say, "Oh yeah! Someone else would take that in a flat second if you let that out."
It would be akin to me giving away a winning lottery ticket. Well, at least a 1 in 10 chance that it's a winning lottery ticket
By the way do you have an apple developer account? Are you set up with admob and stuff, will it be a paid game (in the apple store) or a free game?
50% for the first two years seems to be a much more legit proposition however.
