Hey, I'd be happy to help. I'll sponsor a couple of items I can make on my cafepress store (mug, t-shirt, etc), maybe with an Inkscape logo or SVG logo or something. What do you think?

Nice! I plan to put a bit of money on it too. Maybe I invest on it a tiny portion of my SoC money (what comes with geek stuff should go back to geek stuff). And maybe I get some funds from mozilla community support, they still didn't contact me.
I would like to ask here what prizes would you suggest. I need to figure out what would be cool to give as prizes.

Hey Felipe This is the most awesome thing I have seen in a very long time!!! I would like to help with your project in any way I can. I am a bit short of cash right now but I can pledge $50 for a prize. If there is any way you could post a tutorial on this I would love to see it! Unlike you, English is my first language. However I still feel like I am still studying it, so I guess this makes me EFL, instead of ESL! Having said this, I think the message should read: "game will be ready to play once this messages DisappearS, disappears with an "S". Es muy Bueno!!
