Hey there everybody

I'm making an app for a musician. Now, my problem is: I don't know how much I can request for one hour of work or for the whole app? ! How much do you request?!

Thanks much

    Hey tshirtbooth

    Make you games only as hobby or as professional developer?! Because your rate is 30$ per hour. But I am making games only as hobby at the moment...did you think 10$ per hour is too much for a "hobby developer".

    Thanks

    i do not think 10$ is unreasonable at all.

    Okay. I will make my app for my drum-teacher. If I request 10$ per hour, the app will cost from 180$ to 200$. What do you think of that?! Is 180$ -200$ too much or too less for an DrumKitTrainer-App?!

    Thank much

    If he's planning on selling it and you are developing the ENTIRE app ( graphics, sound, ect ) then ABSOLUTLY NOT too much. It's more than fair. in my opinion. You could actually ask for a little more depending on how good the graphics are and fictionality of the app. If it's coded well then your price is a bargain. I always believe in the phrase " you get what you pay for ". So if he wants a quality app and you're SURE that you can deliver. Don't hesitate to ask for what your worth.

    Just my $0.02

    Hopes that helped.

    That is absolutely not to much, it is a bargain.
    My advice:
    I would start out asking 250$ and if he think it is to much say you will do it for less (like 200$) if he throws in a couple of drum-lessons. Don't be afraid to ask this, when you would ask to little and you will not have any fun working on the project.

    I am a drummer too btw, and curious about the app :))

    Thanks much :)

    @LudwigHeijden:
    The app is about, to train youself rhythm. You must tap at the right time to be in the rhythm and to make as less faults as you can. But I will post it here and in the "Announce Your Game" Forum. Hope you like it...first video is coming soon.

    Cheers

    i think he is referring to the need to train for his rhythm for playing the drums
