Hello all just looking for some pointers for a friend of a friend, so detail is a little thin. They have an idea for a game and want to turn their ideas into a prototype that they can show to game producers (I assume). I am after some general pointers and tips that people may have picked up from experience of such things. I have also assumed they have done the basic JFGI searches and are looking more specifically at people or companies that do such development. Any advice welcomed.
I think they are looking for advice in just how to get it done, I imagine. Who to go to? What the options are? How to go about IP? What NOT to do? That sort of thing really.
