Elegy for a Dead World lives to write another day

Dejobaan Games' conceptually fascinating Elegy for a Dead World has achieved its Kickstarter goal of $48,000. The studio, best known for intense experiences like AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! and Drop that Beat like an Ugly Baby, is working with Girls Like Robots developer Ziba Scott of Popcannibal on a thoughtful fiction creation game.

The game's three worlds are inspired by classic English Romantic poetry, pulling from Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats. Once players complete the game they'll "have the option to share it with other players through Steam Workshop or reproduce it in digital and print media," according to the developer. The game's beta is planned for this month.
