We collaborated with Video Artist Sam Spreckley and used real celluloid film, sometimes burnt, for effects frequently encountered in the game...

Authenticity is key to @ChineseRoom's games.
The scarf in Caz's cabin is not just any asset we plucked out of nowhere.
It's got history... Around 150 years of it, in fact.
It was thrilling to collaborate with the legendary @PartickThistle FC on this. 🖤
