=== Background ===
Following his arrest in 1987, Jules Barnaby was released on probation in '89 and was forced to move to Fresno, California away from Hollywood and live as a registered sex offender in the area. Throughout the 1990s besides some community service work, Barnaby began creating animations with computers via 3D Movie Maker and other applications and shared them through the Internet (his probation did not affect this as the Internet was still fairly new). Most of these animations were criticized by some as rudimentary in nature as well as relying too much on violent content in spite of 3D Movie Maker being mostly marketed to kids. Regardless, Barnaby continued making these animations well into the 2000s, with the rise of video sharing sites like Newgrounds.
In 2007, Barnaby downloaded a new software called Garry's Mod, released the year prior, it was a sandbox game using Valve's Source engine that provided the player with a world in which to freely manipulate objects, one feature that intrigued Barnaby was the video making feature, this gave him the idea to make a full-length animated feature using the game. Because of this unorthadox approach, only a few people invested in the project, including a local restaurant owner. Banraby would also recruit locals from the area, usually people he knew personally in the are and relatives, all were adults in accordance with the probation. The project would take 4 years to complete, in part due to Barnaby's meticulous detail to animating the characters as well as the updates the game often got, with Barnaby opting to take advantage of newly added elements with every update, unintentionally resulting in continuity issues.
