How long would it take to develop a facebook game like this? - CyberNerd - 04-23-2014 10:49 AM

Basically it superhero game with a "Mafia Wars" look to it in that it has no animations or much graphics other than still images. Features include USING ACTIONS on other players (poking), exclusive GROUPS (players can only be in one group at a time), TURN BASED FIGHTING (you get to pick your actions and you'll see a battle log), TRAVEL, and every player will have a CUSTOMIZABLE PROFILE.

It basically looks like this

well you would have to know coding because you would need the coding for the countdown clock and you will need the coding for the fighting actions and you would need to know the coding for the buttons and the coding for the money program plus all the other coding since your wanting to have a customizable profile for the members . So pretty much it could take you 6-8 hours to days on end on getting the program writen and testing the program and getting with website that will put your program on facebook because the apps on face book arnt through facebook itself. then you would have to wait for that person to test your program and it will take them a few days to get your program. so yeah it will take you along time to make it

A week if you're an experienced game programmer. A few decades if you're right-brained and know nothing about programming. The question is actually meaningless.
