If you are a great marketer, then there’s several options. At least these:
- consider becoming a publisher, publishing games by others
- seek game devs who already have done “your ideas”, or similar ones. Team up with one or several and become their marketer
- Start offering marketing services for existing studios
- Buy my gamerelease.net service & expand it ;)

In terms of creating a game:
- everybody already has tons of ideas, your idea isn’t interesting – sorry. We wanna do our own ideas. (This is quite often the case)
- hire a programmer, artist etc to create your game
- seek investors/funding for your ideas
- learn to program. (start with GameMaker or Unity or something). If the idea is great, simple, it might be worth learning the basics…

Hi there…what would be the best way to start a game dev studio? I’m a marketer with some solid ideas for games. Should I team up with a programmer or pitch my ideas to establishes game studios?

WOW! That is quite the extensive list of resources. Hoping to have my first game out on the App Store, however I outsourced the work… I should direct my developer to this page!

Thanks for the info!

Hi! I’m a n00b iPhone developer with a pretty solid background on PHP development, which is nowhere near ObjC, so I started a blog to follow me along the way as I learn. Currently I write about myself reading Sams Learn iPhone dev in 24 hours.

I’d like some tips on other blogs by newbie game devs to share knowledge with as I learn. Also as a way of exchanging links in the blogroll, as it feels like talking with a wall when writing a blog with no readers.

If you have a blog like mine, and like to exchange knowledge and links, I’d be really happy if you’d drop me a comment on http://www.bluegoogames.com

I’ll definitly check out the Granny Coder, sounds like a legend, too good to be true! :)
