When I said the soundtrack was strong for this type of music I just meant you have to like the style or genre to appreciate it. In other cases they use something special like focusing on an instrument that ws not done in the original song in music or something like the way the film Titantic used a love story as the driving force for the disaster theme. Sometimes when people remake a film they present some angle that did not exist in the original and only loosely base the film’s storyline on the original. This is where it might have been good to have a higher goal in mind…something that everyone could understand whether they knew of the game or not. People not familiar with the game definitely would not get it. But you said you had doubts that people familiar with the game would get it. You described using ideas sparked from a game. If this had been a general animation contest I think the dark sexual content would have worked against you. There are elements that might repel some people or attract others. The working for or against contexts reference was about how well the video matched the theme of the contest. I think you need to stick to the theme and create an opening animation sequence with your animation skills. You can wrap a gift so nicely that people are reluctant to unwrap it. The ultimate objective is the gift not the wrapping. This may not be a good analogy but the galaxy sequence tacked onto all of your work is like using science fiction special effects to sell a romantic comedy. I gather from the About section that you are a 2D animator. I don’t know whether or not you created it. I believe you are making a mistake using that galaxy sequence as your YT logo. I am just commenting to give you something to think about even if you reject everything and think about something else and I hope something will help or inspire you. Thank you for the additional information.
