And now we have to pick up the pieces of what’s left. We all know what happened in Episode 8 and with Caine now being deleted, I fear that whatever is left after he’s gone is going to be much, much worse for our cast of characters… ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ *Credits:* Writers: Forrest Lee Editors: JayskiBean, Danial "BanditRants" Keristoufi, Tyler Mascola, Axellent Sound Designer: Yosi Berman, Alena Lecorchick ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ aHR0cHM6Ly9iaXQubHkvNHZldnVWUw== Need Royalty Free Music for your Content?

13:32 - As a developer, we generally avoid deleting things that work even a little bit, because we might be able to lift something useful out of them later.

I love how they all either look traumatized or clueless everytime they're on screen.

For an AI, Caine was very human in some ways and not at all in others, which makes him all the more sympathetic.

11:18 keep in mind he said “ *all I can say* is he’s dead” because the people working on the show are under NDAs

1:20 and Glitch had to argue *hard* for those two weeks, the theaters initially wanted a MONTH long gap, and refused to go down to one week.

I just like how Caine's origin ties into his visual design -- he eats his brother, and is now visualized as a giant mouth. Don't ever really see people bringing that up.
