Over the years, Trouble in Terrorist Town has been one of the most played Garry's Mod game modes. We chatted to the creator about how he made his duplicitous deathmatch, a game ahead of its time.

"Can I make an avant-garde 40 minute film with almost no dialogue, multiple interconnecting storylines, an original score and minimal animation in Garry's Mod, solely utilizing visuals and sound design to tell the story? It sounded impossible. I had to do it."

The story of MachineCult's dupes. From towering Combine mechs, to junk ships and more.

"The School of Garry’s Mod involved looking at references of the fresco of the original School of Athens in the Vatican by Raphael and posing over 50 characters into a 3D modelled scenebuild."

"There were nights that I couldn’t sleep because my mind was still iterating on what to add next. I was way too deep into it. It needed to be great, it needed to be mind-blowing. I knew it was silly, but I kept going because at this point I couldn’t stop."
