thousand buck looks like a lot, especially when you add ".00" at the end to make it look wider or longer.. whatever. but for the features this guy counted in.. idk. I mean. You do want to make a living out of this, right? 1. Implement requested features 2. Sell Engine 3. Implement new features and polish, rename project/engine 4. Repeat if another offer pours in

Win, right? :)

(but to be completely honest. for 1000$ he wants a finished product and a re-sale license.. :/ I might be out of touch with reality, but I wouldn't go with it. unless he isn't looking for source code.. in that case it might be fair for someone other than me :) .)

$1000? he's dreaming. A full engine with Networking capabilities, AI, Collision, etc; Maybe if you get royalties for each time he uses the resale license/sells , but damn, he's a dreamer alright :P
