As top-tier rewards during our
Kickstarter campaign to fund the printing of video games poetry anthology
Coin Opera II, we offered backers the chance to have their own custom poem written on a game of their choice. In the run-up to our
Seven-Player Co-op event on
Thursday 6th November at
Four Quarters Bar, Peckham, we’ll be revealing the finished poems, now in the hands of their wonderful backers.
First up, it’s
Ecstatica II, chosen by
John Clegg. This piece was unique in being the only poem in the series written jointly by Jon and Kirsty as rivals for the protagonist’s attention. Here is the physical poem John received, in the form of a glorious medieval-style scroll (and
here’s a video of him receiving it):
And here is the poem itself:
Thanks once again to all of our amazing backers.
