Ask HN: How to build a 3d ipad game

2 points| niico | 14 years ago | reply

Hey guys!

We are a UI and a 3D designer and we want to create a cool (3D) ipad game but we have no technical skills nor we have never created an ipad game before.

We will probably hire a developer for this project.

But what are some basic things we need to know about creating a 3d ipad game? Rendering stuff, mapping, multiplayer interaction, connecting to a database to record the scores, etc.

Thanks!

Unity3D would probably a great place to start.

Very tough hiring a dev for this kind of work; very expensive and hard to find good quality.
