Dave Summer - Second Audition

[Dave Summer]

Hey there!

It's been a while. My first attempt wasn't strong so I decided to give it another try.

First of all, thank you for giving me feedback last time. Back then I just said something about the game concept. But since then, I started creating the game. I have some scenes from it such as:

In this part you can see my idea about how my game would switch background when you enter another tier of the game. The music not the original, it's been mixed.

As a side-project, I created a non-interactive FFF with my graphics and sound effects I collected for the game. I'm trying to make it interactive and release it soon. It is a work-in-progress project since 3rd of August whereas it was released way earlier.

Musics of the gameplay are remixed by me. I really like working with the background sounds. Some of them are on the way to release. Actually, I use this format in my WWTBAM Multi Format series that I'm proudly hosting since 13th of August, 2022. Back then I used Control Panel programs, but now I'm about to switch to mine because it is getting more and more developped.

And finally, I developped a console edition of WWTBAM in C++. I know it is not a big deal, but it was a cool challenge.

Here's the link for it:

You just have to press a, b, c or d and then Enter. No lifelines available yet.

I hope that this time I will succeed and pass the audition.

Have a nice time!

All the bests,

Dave Summer

Unfortunately it's going to be a no from me.

I can't trust you at this moment in time. I haven't seen enough from you. You haven't shown me anything that'd earn my trust.

I've watched your demonstration videos of your game, they're basically a cheap rip off of WillowPunch's Millionaire videos. I don't see any love and passion put into these videos.

You've also haven't bothered to add any voice-overs over the Millionaire cues used in your videos, regardless if they were remixed or not.
This gives those a chance to download your videos, and steal the Millionaire cues from your videos by extracting the audio.

I've downloaded your "console edition" of your game, it just pops up a window with a couple of lines of text, looks like something you'd put in Notepad to jot an idea for a game down.
You haven't even bothered to contribute to the forum at all, since your 1st audition in February. You have only made 1 post since then, and that was in an RPG thread saying that you wanted to be a contestant.

I know having a low post count doesn't really matter that much anymore, E.G. WillowPunch's audition. However, he showed that he had actual talent with the demonstration videos of his game and audio remixes he made. But it's also nice to see an individual take an actual interest to contribute to our community, creating interesting discussions and such.
It definitely does help when it comes to auditioning to become a Fan Games Pass Holder.

Do not let this set back discourage you! Take some time to get to know us, contribute to the forum, create interesting discussions, put some love, hard work and passion into your creations, and you might be able to pass next time round.

Dave,

I’m sorry but my vote to your audition is a No. I agree with Jayden’s points. My advice is to stick around more in the forum, post more content in the public boards and, if your next audition will convince me, I’ll give my Yes vote.

[Minh Dang]

With only 3 posts...I don't think it's enough to convince me to say yes.
I also agree with Jayden and Matt. You should active more in this place, getting the trusted from us and other members. And your work should look like something you put all of your passion in.

So, same as them, I'll say no. But don't give up!. Follow our advices first then attempt to audition again, then luck will be on your side soon!
