It’s time for your starring role in Deep Cuts.

Lights, camera, action! Filmmaker Elise Weber and best friend/creative partner Malcolm Micheaux enjoyed an illustrious career until their villainous cartoon creations went mad. As Elise, explore the Lights Camera Faction studio premises in hopes of saving Malcolm. Enter a series of blockbuster worlds based on the duo’s extensive film catalog alongside Bowie, the only sane cartoon character left. 

Take Elise right into the heart of a movie set. Survive the ‘80s horror-inspired “Forsaken Festival”, fend off creatures in the ‘70s space thriller “Origin Drill”, or take a stroll through the Wild West in “Bastard Town”. 

Each blockbuster world contains numerous interactable objects – grab a boom mic for an improvised weapon, fire off a prop machine gun, and discover hidden lore secrets. Solve intricate puzzles with the help of time manipulation abilities, and embrace the power of an ultimate Film Director!
