Um, so we are Dreamcraft. This is Tian; I'm the founder of Dreamcraft. We went through Y Combinator in the summer 2018 batch. We are building a platform for anybody to create, publish, and monetize games without programming expertise.

We believe that the best games are created by passionate individuals who are not necessarily programmers or artists. Our technology enables people to create games like Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, in just a matter of weeks, without even writing a single line of code. The entire process is as easy as making a map in games like Starcraft. If you have played that game, you know what I'm talking about.

So hit me up if you're interested in becoming part of the journey to democratizing the game creation technology. Our website is dreamcraft.com. We're still pretty stealthy; you won't find too much information online about us. I'm happy to chat more in person.

The games built using our technology have been played by more than two million people already, even though we only started in 2018. Again, thanks for having me, and I will yield.
