Dejobaan Games, LLC Offers Gamers The Wonderful End of the World for $9.95 to Fund Development of Their Next Title
Watertown, MA - March 6th, 2009 - Earlier this year, Dejobaan Games announced development of its 13th title, AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! -- A Reckless Disregard for Gravity. For many, this was their first exposure to a studio whose founder claims to have housebroken a giant jellyfish. Dejobaan now hopes to fund AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!'s development by introducing these gamers to their bestseller, The Wonderful End of the World, having slashed its price in half to $9.95 at www.dejobaan.com/wonderful.
In Wonderful, the planet's going to be eaten by a fish-headed demon. But you'll try to rescue as much as you can before it does. As a tiny puppet that grows with every object it gathers, you start out as a collection of jelly beans and marbles, and work your way up to a behemoth with fire engines for arms and the ability to absorb entire buildings. Mike Fahey from Kotaku wrote, "I swoon! It's PC Katamari Damacy on crack..."
Dejobaan now plans to use the proceeds from Wonderful to fund development of AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!, due out in Q3 2009. While the new title has generated the most buzz of any of their games, most gamers' comments demanded that they update the aesthetics to somewhere post-1997. The studio therefore intends to split Wonderful's sales evenly between graphics, gameplay, and grande espressos.
Availability and system requirements: The Wonderful End of the World is available as a demo and for purchase online for $9.95 at www.dejobaan.com/wonderful. The game requires Windows 2K, XP or Vista; a 1.5GHz processor; 1GB system memory; a 3D card with 128MB video memory; and Microsoft DirectX 9.0c or higher. AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! is scheduled for a Q3 2009 release; more information is available at www.dejobaan.com/aaaaa.

January 25, 2008 - Dejobaan Games Releases the Wonderful End of the World
Cambridge, MA - Dejobaan Games, LLC has released its 12th title, The Wonderful End of the World, for Windows desktop PCs.
You can't save the whole world. It's going to be eaten by a mythological demon with the head of a fish. But as a puppet that absorbs all it touches, you can try to rescue as much of Earth's greatness as you can before the end arrives. The Wonderful End of the World is a new game for Windows PC available for $19.95 at www.dejobaan.com/wonderful.
In the beginning, you roam the Earth, capable of absorbing only the tiniest of objects. A glass marble you collect becomes your head, and a pair of jellybeans becomes your hands. Small creatures overwhelm you, with rats kicking you around and golden retrievers threatening to stomp you to pieces. But with every object you collect, your puppet self grows larger. Eventually, you'll become a towering behemoth with fire engines for arms and the ability to absorb entire buildings.
The Wonderful End of the World takes you through 12 unique locations, with over a thousand treasures to gather before the end comes. Steal some sweets from the candy store, where gummi fish swim in a blueberry river; visit a surrealist library to find that the words have literally leapt out of their books; and explore the Megalopolis, where you'll watch a lively end-of-the-world parade and then gobble it up before making your way to grab the tallest skyscraper ever built.
Availability and system requirements: The Wonderful End of the World is available as a demo and for purchase online at www.dejobaan.com/wonderful. The game requires Windows 2K, XP or Vista; a 1.5GHz processor; 1GB system memory; a 3D card with 128MB video memory; and Microsoft DirectX 9.0c or higher. |
