Devil Entertainment
- Build a bridge and Parallax it-
About us
Devil Entertainment was set up by Lliam Sedawie -AKA- Vanstone. On the 04.02.11...
After constantly trying to get into teams i found that when they would accept me, that was it. . . . the team got abandon because the leader had no ideas. . .
Devil Entertainments Founding Principal is
- Build a bridge and Paralax it-
This means that if we face problems we take a step back, build over it and make it better.
About me:
My name is Lliam Sedawie. I am 17 years old and I am from Australia. Don't let my age cloud your judgment of me.
I have passed Yr 11 VCE IT, And Am currently doing a Unit 1-2 course of Digital Multimedia in tafe. Included in that course the instructor teaches us Business tips and how to deal with issues and Increase efficiency.
I take the business tips away the most and i dwell on them. That is what got me thinking. I can't keep trying to join teams and have them abandon. I need to create a team that is consistant. I need to have the best i can find and i need to keep them active and involved so they want to be working. So i started Devil Entertainment.
How the team will work
A few ground rules:
No Bullying, This comes under the grounds of constructive criticisms. Don't say that the map is shit because it is. Say the map doesn't appeal to you because...
Team Decisions:
As the director I pass all the decisions but i pass them as a team. If i hate the idea of making a slime eat a cat and have the cats owner chase him for the story line, but the rest of the team likes it, , , then we will make that game. It is a team effort and Majority votes will win. but if your side loses, a teaspoon of concrete and harden the f**k up. don't let the fact that you don't like the idea stop you from working at your best..
Replant, Don't ab band:
This Team will never be abandoned. Games may be abandoned after a team decision but when the games is abandoned we crack straight into ideas for another game.
$ $ $Money Money Money $ $ $
It is 6 months until I turn 18. When that happens i will get a paypal account and a separate bank account to the one i have currently.
This will be the Teams Bank account. The Devil Entertainment home page will then be updated to have a donate feature. once it goes into the bank account every month i will have the bank split the money evenly among all members of the team
Note that donation will not be the only way of obtaining income. Some of our games will be commercial but not all of them. Don't work any less hard on a non profit game as opposed to a commercial game. work 121% on all of them.
I am also hoping for later on down the track to have some merchandise. But that will be later on down the track when we have the money to invest.
