Many never before seen development assets have been obtained from reaching out to former Genuine Games developers over the years. In 2022, a YouTuber was given the original source files by an anonymous source. Originally, this was going to be a much bigger game and have a lot more content but was all condensed down and cut out due to budget and time constraints. It was in development for around 12 to 14 months. It was rushed to tie in with the Get Rich or Die Trying movie.
