Our colleagues at Spice VR won at the Gamecity Prototype funding!
Gamecity Hamburg grants a total of € 252,000 to six project teams from Hamburg in the first funding round 2021 of our Prototype Funding program. Congratulations to tool1 (THE INVITATION), Spice VR (ARC BREAK), James Rucks & Clemens Runge (Rocket Science GONE WRONG), Team Crumbling (Crumbling), Elecular (The Hunt For Epic Treasure) and Torito Games (Fantasma Ville)!
A multitude of excellent pitches and ideas were submitted by creative heads from Hamburg, proving once again how much potential Hamburg’s games ecosystem holds. Many thanks to our awarding committee members Valentina Birke (Super Crowd Entertainment), Nina Müller (Goodgame Studios), Michael Schade (Rockfish Games), Jens Unrau (Behörde für Kultur und Medien) and Dennis Schoubye (Gamecity Hamburg), who had to choose from this great pool of applications.
The funding these six teams receive will go towards the development of a playable prototype and we can’t wait to see how they will turn out! We will soon share more info about the funded projects on our channels, so keep an eye out.
On top of that we are happy to announce a second prototype funding round with applications opening on August 30! All information about the prototype funding program can be found on our website: https://www.gamecity-hamburg.de/funding/
