Website/Computer game design: how to make ideas reality?

    Hi,

    I'm working in education and I've an idea (well-developed at this stage) for a website which would incorporate a game and fill a market both at home and abroad.

    I've no money and at the moment I've little technical knowledge on how to realise these ideas, but I've a huge amount of content/subject knowledge (I've recently been awarded a PhD in the area).

    Given my circumstances, would anybody know how I would go about finding the technical expertise? What sort of government body could I speak to, for instance? The interactive game side of the website would be the selling point and therefore I'd really need somebody who knows that aspect very well.

    I think you need to elaborate more on what you want. When I think game, I think things for playstation, but that's not hat you're referring to.

    Website interactive games are a different story altogether, but it's hard to make money out of that. What's the purpose of this 'game'? Plenty of web design/interactive companies who can help you out with this stuff, PM me and I can send you some links, but honestly, right now you need to think a bit more about doing up a rough business plan to see if it's a viable business.
