To the #game #seriousgames #boardgames #tabletopgames communities in here!

Can someone point me towards potential funding for a game I've been designing?

It's a #designfutures game to guide participants in designing preferable futures going through a meta #foresight process.

Thanks a lot ✌️

Think bone or coral, but engineered by algorithms.
That’s how early starship “DNA” might look.
