The Devious Dev Posted April 24, 2014 I am following the Firewatch development as closely as one can and I have noticed that the typewriter that Olly concepted and Jane modeled/textured is the same typewriter that shows up as the background when you mouse over the quarterly review button. Obviously they used the physical typewriter as reference for the in-game one and they decided to make it the very first model they made. So what is the deal with this type writer guys why is it so significant to the people of Campo Santo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jake Posted April 24, 2014 Olly liked the look of that typewriter and used it as one of the pieces of reference for the game model, and because of that we used it for the blog. Sorry that answer isn't very exciting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonCole Posted April 24, 2014 I can't wait to see the third use of that typewriter art, which will confirm that Campo Santo is developing Half-Life 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Posted April 24, 2014 It's pretty cool that both Idle Thumbs and Firewatch have typewriters as semi-official logos, anyway. You could pretending it's a nod to the Thumbs association or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
