Remedy Explains Control Resonant's Most Memorable, Unexpected Sequence And Its EarthBound Inspirations

Remedy explained that late in Control Resonant the game suddenly shifts into a 16-bit turn-based RPG to depict Jesse and Dylan's childhood trauma after encountering the slide projector. The sequence draws on 1995 SNES RPG EarthBound and was hand-coded in Lua within Northlight, with its 2D look faked by viewing a 3D scene from directly overhead.
