How to make 1 million dollars in 6 weeks photo

Hey, you! Yea, you! Do want to make money quick? Do you want women, power and fast cars? Do you want to be snorting cocaine off a hooker within the next six weeks? Then all you need is "Destructoid's Guide to Profit." Now for a limited time you can get it for free. Right here.

  1. Make iPhone app.
  2. Sell iPhone app.
  3. Profit.
It's really that easy. Look how succesful Social Gaming Network was with this model. They made 1 million dollars in just six weeks with their F.A.S.T. dogfighting game in which players can shoot down each other over their iPhone. That's a whopping amount of money in a very short time and a testament that a viable business model can be made via the iPhone's app store. Destructoid makes no guarantees that your app will sell as well, but if it is just as high quality then you could be pulling in up to $60,000 a day as SGN has done. SGN might even make it a bit easier on you as they are planning to license out the basic platform engine they used to create F.A.S.T. So get cracking, those hookers aren't gonna be young forever you know.

The sdk loads up a virtual iPhone on your mac to test your app on. So no you don't technically need an iPhone or itouch. It probably would help though. However it only works on macs.

@Corak, that's cool. I have a mac and pc, so maybe I can do this. Who knows, maybe I could make a decent iPhone, make some money, fund a small army, and slowly build up my empire that will take over the world. Thanks Apple!

I've heard it is actually incredible difficult to make more than ~$20 a day on an iPhone app. You need some decent programmers to make a game like that, and people who will be able to play test it, and design it, and yadda yadda yadda.

The plethora of iPhone apps demonstrates the ease of which the SDK makes it possible to develop them. I've been tinkering with the iPhone SDK for the past few weeks and the frameworks are simply amazing. You rarely have to reinvent the wheel.

Los255 - someone made that EXACT app. Pretty sure it never got approved for the app store, but there are vids of it floating around.

To develop for iphone you need at minimum access to an iphone or ipod touch, an Apple developer license, and access to a mac.

Oh Cowzilla, but that's the beauty of hookers! Every year, I get older, but they stay the same age.

Complete global saturation!!

I hate myself for not being good at programming or I'd be all over this iphone stuff... I can come up with some shitty "game" ideas pretty fast too you know.
