Legend. I'd be keen to hear all about it! If I was a bachelor still, I would apply.
Loving the updates and emails. Hope you are able to get enough funding to continue!
P.S: Look up Screen Australia Grants. That might be able to help you. Insider info tells me they are looking for multiplayer indie games to fund.
EDIT: They still fund good single player games, but they made a note a few weeks ago saying they are lacking multiplayer indie games, if that's of interest to you.
