Melbourne local here. Welcome! Hope you had a good week here. You got a good week of weather too, which is a bonus.
You accurately captured the rivalry between States. They are now all to some extent supporting the games industry with grants. The biggest challenge is that actually getting those grants takes a lot of time for developers. But it’s better than nothing, and no system is perfect.
I’m guessing you were flown down for the event? We need to do more to promote our local ecosystem globally, and getting you here is likely part of that!

I've been to Melbourne once. Good beer, nice museums. Turns out it's become a game development hub as well.
