Funding and programs

Grants, funds, accelerators, publishers taking pitches and platform programs for game developers. Each one says who can apply, the deadline, and when we last checked it. Programs change, so always confirm on their site before you apply.

What you get: Crowdfunding: backers pledge toward your goal, and you're paid only if the campaign reaches it. Kickstarter takes a fee from successful campaigns.

Who can apply: Creators in Kickstarter's supported countries with a project that follows its rules (a game you're making, with rewards for backers).
