Are you having a particularly hard time solving some programming or math challenge, or just want to implement something that you've seen in a demo into one of your games but are stuck on the math or logic? I can be of service: $100 + $100/hr.

And if you knew orbz at all, you would know that he can do things that no other GS member would think is possible! Companies spend thousands, and sometimes millions to develop games, and those are the ones that are at the top
The demand for math skills right now with GS is pretty high as good math skills are required to make a game function and run smoothly.
Right now ORBZ is the market supplier (he seems to be the math guru around these parts), so he can charge $100 until someone else steps in and says they will provide the service for say $50.
not swindling at all, but adjusting his prices to meet the market supply and demand equilibrium.
Can you tell I'm taking micro and macro econ courses at the moment

ORBZ is cheap.
Oh wait. That may not have came across very well...
In all seriousness, review the work he has done and determine if you believe he can add value to your project. All projects need to look at that simple formula as to whether services rendered + price tag = value.
Well, he seems to be good (I think he's good actually) but I would never pay hundreads $ for a GS app, that's it.. I mean in GS you will never win as big companies do (first, they don't really use GS hmm..) so it's a lost investment (this is what I think) but if you think it can be good for your business then go ahead.. I would share what I won with the person who helped me, that is more fair I think with money as added value for the dev work...
PS : ORBZ I'm not trying to destroy your business or whatever, I hope you'll get money with that, it's just that at first sight I was a bit convulsed by the idea-price whatever.. I'm one of this guys who likes sharing knowledge, I mean for free but I understand that (I don't how to say it in english cause I'm french) but in France we say "each work is worthy of a right income"
In American dream I trust
I may have some work for you with a client, but they will need to see your qualifications/resume!
I'm not looking for a job. Nor am I looking to build someone else's game. You can send me an email explaining the problem he's having and I'll tell you if I'm interested.
Thanks
Its a real job, but they are not willing to pay someone without seeing what they are getting. Its odd that you are advertising services but do not want to show your work. This is standard stuff, do you think my clients hire me without seeing proof of my past work? Of course not.
Its cool, I understand, you really don't want to make money and are just kinda telling people to leave you alone.
PS: Sorry but I can't tell you anything without you signing an NDA
Edit: I will say that it involves physics similar to a pinball machine. I'm not even sure its possible with GS, thats why I would ask you. But they would need an NDA (not me, I would give them your email).
ORBZ is more than just a math reference, he's a great problem solver. That has been proved time and time again with the demos he's posted and questions he's answered. It's one thing to understand math, it's another to know when/how to apply that knowledge.
Does this means you'll no longer post more 'demos' for free?
I'll still post demos for free.
@Tyme,
Thnk you for your offer. I'm not interested in a job. This thread is about offering to help people on small one-off problems that are holding developers back on their game, for a small fee. Small problems that don't take very long. A win-win. I do not wish to busy myself with huge projects that take weeks or months. This sounds like your friend wants me to make his game for him. I am sure your friend can find someone else.
I will sign reasonable NDA's.
