While this was totally to be expected, it's still kind of a bummer. Makes you wonder why Poem Studios didn't just get a working prototype of the game together and approach Lucasfilm for licensing. 😔
Now the project, called Apeiron, will shut down for good with only tantalizing snippets of gameplay to show for its efforts after Lucasfilm—which was acquired by Disney in 2012—sent a cease-and-desist letter to John Taylor Trotter, the head of the Atlanta-based and volunteer-run indie studio leading the Apeiron project, Poem Studios.
