Brain Jar Games has secured $6.7m in its seed funding round. The studio intends to allocate these funds towards the development of its inaugural title, Dead As Disco. The funding round was co-led by Transcend Fund Menlo Ventures, and 1UP Ventures. Notably, Brain Jar also received investments from former Harmonix COO Chris Rigopulos, Oculus co-founder Nate Mitchell, and Xsolla president David Stelzer.
Amy Wu, Menlo Ventures partner, stated “It takes a lot for a new game entrant to capture players’ attention, and Will Cook with Brain Jar Games paints such a sharp vision for the game that I wanted to play it from the first time I heard the pitch. Can’t wait for this to launch.”
