I haven't been on the Escapist forums for a while so I was curious about whether you guys were following this or not. The team behind Skullgirls, Lab Zero, is currently running a fundraiser to add some DLC to their game. They already reached their initial goals and are coming up on a stretch goal that will benefit Mane6 (The team behind the former MLP: Fighting is Magic game).
Basically if the fundraiser reaches $725,000 they'll give Mane6 the Skullgirls engine to use for free, basically taking the licensing fees out of donations. They're already more than halfway there and both teams are pretty talented and deserve the funding.
You can donate to Skullgirls here
