" summary

Argues that pitch decks must be structured like a player journey (hook, core loop, market/economy, roadmap, ask) and shows concrete tactics: two-hook speedruns (factual vs emotional), flowcharting tension points (flowchart your deck), testing with non‑gamers, and swapping paragraphs for visuals. Advises embedded gameplay videos, animated timelines and high‑quality assets; cites one competition with ~200 entrants for a single slot and examples where strong presentation wins funding even when the build is incomplete.
