Hi Helen and Jason :)


Everything I've read recently says to time and a half or double your actual

time estimate for this kind of thing, as it's better to provide a reasonable

estimate than to try and explain why you aren't getting it done when you

said you could (or to have to eat time, but that isn't as bad, if you at

least can get finished.) Not that I know, but that's what I've been hearing

said :)


The quiz game should be easy as there's one that works well in the flash 4

magic book that you can use as a template (I did an "advertising" quiz from

it and didn't have any problems with it). The crossword puzzle I think might

be harder... there's some design and coding questions and then there's not a

published template to use... but I could be wrong. I was doing cryptograms

and in some ways, I guess that's a bit different.


Ok, now got any hints on how to get this kind of job? We wanna do games :)

(and don't care if they're illustration-heavy) and are not having too much

luck coming up with that kind of work.
