I'm not entirely sure, but zooming closer to gear teeth interaction, it looks like cogs aren't aligning perfectly like they do in real life? I'm viewing this in firefox, so that might be a reason as well.
People have really short attention span these days. If I can't figure out what OpenLoopz does in 10 sec, I'm probably never going to use/sign up for it.
I'm in a slightly similar situation. Just that I'm in my final semester sitting for placements. But I don't really want to join a company or work for someone else's startup right away.
I'm actively looking for good ideas and people to start up with. While I'm not very experienced developer, I'm indeed capable of working on an MVP for testing out an idea, and taking things from there, if it all works out fine.
I would love to hear from you and see if we can make something out of this. You can support me a bit while MVP development, and if it looks promising, you can quit your job and we can completely concentrate on this thing.
