You're In Business

Dare Drop is a functional, legitimate platform for game marketing with verified partnerships (e.g., Crytek). However, the submission quality is critically low, featuring demonstrably false claims ('most people have used my product') and vague data ('everyone'). While the technology and market fit are promising, the lack of serious reporting in the submission severely penalizes the final score.
