We are once again incredibly happy to announce that Drop Bear Bytes have received funding from Film Victoria’s Assigned Production Investment program which supports game development within the state of Victoria.

Broken Roads received funding from the same program last year, and this was instrumental to us growing our team and realising our vision for where we wanted to take this game.

Thanks to Film Victoria’s belief in us once more, we’ve now been able to bring on a full-time level designer, grow our art team and further expand the writing talent contributing to Broken Roads. The Applied Production Investment has made an incredible difference to the project thus far, and we would not be where we are today without it.

You can read the official announcement from Film Victoria here, as well as Kotaku’s write-up about the funding here.
