IMHE at YC, I'd put my money on whichever talked a more monetizable game.

YC put money into this?

YC would probably fund that!

that wouldn't be the case if YC wasn't paying for it.

The game even features YC!

If you have financial resources - I guess you would only go to YC for the publicity ? The money would mean nothing.

I guess YC is diversifying their bets :-)

But do you think YC would be interested?

adamzerner | karma 1375 | avg karma 2.19 · | 2013-11-05 23:51:11+00:00

So do you think that YC was even worth it?

It might be better to make the case to YC directly.

YC is an incubator, not a game show.

This is basically the pitch for YC

People tend to underestimate what YC will be interested in. You might be surprised!

bra-ket | karma 2953 | avg karma 2.75 · | 2014-12-08 00:11:19+00:00

it's YC

YC has made some questionable bets in the last few years. Quantity over quality?

I would argue that the vast majority of people on here have very little interest in YC. I'm here for the interesting content and people.

Therefore there are two brands (in my humble opinion).

IceDane | karma 747 | avg karma 2.94 · | 2024-04-02 19:14:19

My honest opinion is that I'm surprised by what YC is willing to back these days. Best of luck.

as opposed to being a marketing tool for YC

tdy721 | karma 398 | avg karma 1.64 · | 2016-07-19 06:51:08

Ahem... YC!
