The studios and titles that have received funding as part of this latest round of funding are as follows:

  • I Want to go to Mars, 15 Minutes of Fame
  • Pico Tanks, Panda Arcade
  • Chaos Tavern, DragonBear Studios
  • Broken Roads, Drop Bear Bytes

The titles above were actually issued their grants back in December 2019. In 2020, Film Victoria is seeking applications for two rounds of funding. Applications for the first round close on 4 May 2020, while the second round is open until 24 September 2020. Grants of up to $150,000 are available, “depending on the nature of the game and the experience of the team.”

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.
