We're in the process of applying for CODE funding, aiming to secure a $40,000 seed fund. This financial support will be instrumental in enhancing the quality of our demo, making it more marketable when we approach potential publishers.
We're making good progress on incorporating player art and animations into the game. Our goal is to have this ready in time for the Remote Play Together Fest on Steam in February 2024.
