How much does it cost to develop a game APP, such as mahjong?

Playing games is not as simple as you think. First of all, you have to have the game code. If not, buy it. If you buy the code, you can modify and optimize it and turn it into your own game. When the game is ready, you want to put it on other platforms. The next step is to spend money and time processing some documents:

A formal game needs to complete the following procedures:

First, it is company registration, and it is ok to find a general agent, but the registered company must meet the following conditions.

1) domestic companies

2) Registered capital100000 yuan.

3) Copy of the real estate license of the registered address

II. Network Culture Business License (hereinafter referred to as "Wenwangwen")

After the company is registered and the game platform is developed, it is necessary to pre-approve its own business, that is, to apply for the Network Culture Business License, which is called the "text" in the industry.

"Wenwangwen" requires an audit of the games operated by the website, and whether the website meets the national regulations. After approval, the Ministry of Culture will issue a unified certificate number. The accepting department is the local cultural department, that is, the Cultural Department/Cultural Bureau, etc.

Formal acceptance time: 20 working days after acceptance.

This qualification is valid for three years and needs to be renewed in advance.

Three. Value-added telecom business license (ICP certificate for short)

This certificate is also called "Internet Information Service Business License", so it can be seen that if you operate games on the Internet, you must apply for this certificate. Other "paid websites" also need to apply for this certificate, which will not be introduced here.

The website of "icp Certificate", like "Wenwangwen", is subject to review, and the accepting department is the local "Communication Administration". Since the national policy was revised in July 20 12, all applications for this certificate must be made online except for a few places, and now the management system of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is used. Moreover, the application conditions have also improved a lot, and the matters needing attention are as follows:

1. Employees should have social security certificates.

2. If 2.icp filing is local, it also requires the server supplier to file with the local administration.

Formal acceptance time: 60 working days after acceptance.

The qualification is valid for five years, and annual inspection is required at the beginning of each year. The fee should be renewed in advance when it expires.

The above qualifications are complete, that is, you can operate the game. So what are the requirements of a game?

Fourth, software copyright.

When a game is developed, the first thing to apply for is "software copyright", which is the protection of its own software. Whether it is code or design, it should be your own business, so as to really protect your own software. To avoid redundancy, the following two points are introduced (compared with the following version numbers):

1. Software copyright can be renamed, that is, if someone else's name is A, you can also call it A. Copyright mainly protects the specific code and design, not the name, so when there is a dispute between enterprises, the content of copyright will be checked. If the content is the same, whoever applies first will be protected.

2. The copyright name can have letters.

V. Game Version Number

Some people call the game version number "General Administration for the record". Needless to say, it is clear at a glance that the examination and approval department is the General Administration of Press and Publication. General enterprises can't apply for this kind of audit on their own unless they have an "Internet publishing license". They need professional editors to audit the games, and then submit them to the General Administration for review through the publishing bureau.

Games that don't get the "game version number" can't be operated online for a fee. Moreover, the time for applying for the version number is not consistent, and some times will be very long, so we must be prepared to apply for the version number of the game in advance, so as not to delay the operation and cause economic losses.

Precautions:

1. The game version number cannot have the same name. If the name of the game you applied for has already been used, you have to change the copyright name.

2. The game version number cannot contain English letters.

3. When applying for the version number, the icp certificate of the operating company shall be provided.

Six, the game for the record

What is game filing? Don't confuse it with the version number, because the examination and approval department of the game filing is the Ministry of Culture, so everyone often calls it "the game filing of the Ministry of Culture". This filing stipulates that "domestic games should be reported to the Ministry of Culture for filing within 30 days from the date of online operation".

When applying for game filing, you should provide the website certificate of the operating company.

Now the censorship of games is more and more strict, and there should be strict restrictions on clothing, writing, "pk system" and "marriage system"

Friendly reminder: these cards have been processed for at least a dozen W. It is estimated that a dozen W's may not be able to handle it. Don't be cheated by the certificate company that handles intellectual property rights. Check the information yourself in advance, don't do things blindly. This is my bloody lesson.
