How It's Made
Honest about how Scrap Core is made
Scrap Core is built by a very small team. To bring a world this ambitious to life, some 3D models and art are produced with the help of AI tools — but every asset is directed, curated and refined by hand. We'd rather be upfront about it.
A dedicated 3D artist designs and refines our key characters — including the protagonist — so the look stays cohesive, intentional and human.
