Hello all!

My name is Austin Lawrence, some of you may know me from my recent journey to audition on the Shark Tank in Cabezon, California on March 12th!

It was an awesome 3 day journey that was filled with the unexpected surprise of making it into the "In Maricopa" newspaper (Article Here) and an amazing amount of support and well wishes from the people of Maricopa, Casa Grande and Arizona City and more, I have truly been blown away and inspired to move forward and go all the way with my new game show idea!

What am I raising money for?

Help me take the first steps to put Maricopa and Casa Grande on the map!

I present to you my biggest and best creation that I've made in my life so far: Inches and Angles - The Ultimate Game of Ricochet! (Preview Here)

At my audition in front of the Shark Tank casting director, they asked me a critical question: Do I have a VR prototype or base model created and ready that I can show to them right now? My answer was no, and I realized right then that I need to begin the official creation of the VR application that will turn the amazingly fun and original game concepts into a tangible reality that everyone can play and enjoy!

I first created and copyrighted the Inches and Angles concept back in 2011, but the VR technology wasn't readily available like it is 15 years later, so the time for it is now, and I'm going all in to finally make it a playable reality!

Inches and Angles is an amazingly intense, never-done-before game show idea that combines physics trivia questions with a VR game segment that will put contestants physical and mental IQ skills to the ultimate test! It is an experience so unique, so intriguing, the whole world will want to play and enjoy it at least once!

To make this happen, I will need to raise an initial $15,000

This money will be used for 2 things:

1. Inches and Angles VR Game Prototype for Meta Quest 3: $13,000

These funds will pay for the Software Engineer and Game Designer to design, code and develop a custom "Inches and Angles" VR prototype that can be tested and demoed on the Meta Quest 3, shown to the Shark Tank, and will be used in the filming of the show's Pilot Episode

2. Filming and Production Cost to Film 1 Pilot (Demo) Episode: $2,000

These funds will pay for the production costs to hire the film crew, supply props and lighting as well as rent out a production space with a large green screen room for a day to film a pilot or "mock" episode to have as a proof-of-concept to promote the show further to angel investors, larger production companies, the Shark Tank and as needed to any companies or businesses that may be interested in sponsoring or advertising on the show.

Why This Cause is Important to Me - Reducing Technoference and Increasing Social Skills

This cause is important to me not just because it would be bringing to reality a dream I've had for over 15 years, but also because the show's intense and fun gameplay will help to bring people closer by encouraging strong team bonding, which will form potentially lifelong friendships as well as boost social skills and self-esteem in youth and adults.

It is truly a great avenue to reduce the growing amount of Technoference that is prevalent in todays world, Technoference being the everyday disruption or interruption of interpersonal relationships and face-to-face interactions caused by digital and mobile technology devices.

How will Inches and Angles Help to Reduce Technoference?

The teamwork aspect of the show will force contestants of all ages to work together to come out victorious at the end, which will further build social skills that will translate far after the show is over. In the end, if todays teenagers and youth are able to build up their social skills and self-esteem early, the amount of technoference we experience will surely go down and stronger bonds will be formed, helping to make society that much more connected overall!
