Apply for the Viborg Game Developers Microgrant!
Want to build a Prototype / Proof of concept, and a slick pitch for your game? We’re offering creatives and game developers a chance to get started on their game development journey with a 20.000 dkk microgrant, purely intended to help you keep the lights on and the fridge stocked while you work on a prototype and a pitch deck for your game idea.
The purpose of the grant is to:
- Foster the early growth of new game ideas in our local community.
- Empower newcomers to the industry, and give them an accessible springboard into further fundraising.
- Promote a broad diversity of ideas, stories and voices in the game industry as a whole.
Next Round
We’re currently fundraising for the first round of the VGDM. If you want to become a sponsor, please contact us!

Q&A
Q: Do I need to make functional prototype?
A: No! The important thing is that you develop material that communicates what your idea is, and how you plan to realise it.
