time to roll up your sleeves and do the work yourself and stop farming stuff out.

simple as that.

learn what you need to learn in order to do what needs to be done - artwork, coding, audio - whatever.

then do it.

the other option is get a job and use your earnings to farm stuff out.

word is these days your kickstarter type odds are about nil.

BTW: welcome to the wonderful world of independent game development. You will come to wear many hats! <g>. "I'm the President AND the Janitor!" <g>

I'd recommend completing the gameplay first, then the models (use placeholders for now), then any additional audio. the get it in shape for "gone gold".

can you see a light at the end of the tunnel?

If you have a unique idea and are good at presenting it, you might want to look into what options there are for government funding or other public institutions. Unfortunately I have zero knowledge of what options there are outside of Denmark.

Assuming you have something somewhat similar in your country you should look into the application process, and also try to contact developers who have already received similar grants, to get a better idea of what is expected of you. In Denmark the Danish Film Institute gives two types of grants, one for idea development ~10k€ and one for project development ~20-80k€, none of them are particular high, and far from what is needed to complete most full games. But it is enough to reach a point where you can get in touch with investors. Or develop a decent game if you live on cup noodles.

This being said, I have no clue if anything similar exists in your country, and if it does the competition for those money are still tough.

Regarding the kickstarter, then no. If you've already run out of money then chances are you wont make it. If you have a super impressive idea, with a ready playable demo and polished content you can showcase then maybe, but a lot of successful kickstarters hire outside consulting, and you should dedicate a month or two alone to prepare the campaign = three month close to full time work + if you succeed you have to communicate with the community afterwards. There are tons of talks on this though, so I think google can say this better than me :)

Most conferences also have some pitching tracks or competitions, that sometimes yields money, but more often they are great ways to showcase your game to potential investors/get a second opinion.

But first contact other new/smallish developers in your country, and ask what they did.

It really depends on how far you are from a playable demo.

I could just say you did poor project planning and budgeting, if you ran out of money, but that would be if I was a hard ass.

Honestly, best option, given the limited info, would be to find some job, and fund it yourself.

Now you get to see how much your really want it.

I would go with Kickstarter but I am not sure I can provide items in return as we are low on money.

The only item you need to provide is your game.
However, a kickstarter campaign is a lot of work. You'll probably want to spend a few months working on the content for it, including hiring people who can do professional video work for you... and running a successful campaign will be almost a full-time job for a month too.

You won't get external funding, get a job to fund it.

No indie project ever, has gotten external funding? Really?

Plenty of countries, states, and even local town councils have entrepreneurship grants that are basically free money for struggling local businesses. Sometimes you can get enough money together to pay for anything from a small marketing campaign to half an entire game project by simply asking nicely and doing some paperwork properly.

Plenty of publishers have bought the work of independent studios.

Plenty of investors have gambled on equity in independent studios.

Even Sony/MS hand over cash (with few or many strings) to people who ask them in the right way.
