Collaboration
Partners work here as a named branch of the house, not a side file.
Two studios
Separate houses, one continuity.
Chainbreaker: The Umbral Ascent is an extension of the house. Hydrogen-Overdrive makes the game; Woven Prism Productions is the collaborator on the film and video side — trailers, cinematics and cut material. Two studios, each with its own name and its own work.
Woven Prism Productions
Independent film. Held shots. Real weather. The house behind The Lost Draconian. Toronto, Ontario — Jackson, Mississippi.
Hydrogen-Overdrive
The maker of Chainbreaker: The Umbral Ascent — the game, the climb, and the wider ascent.
One continuity bible covers the story and the game. The Hellforge, the chains, and the climb stay consistent across both houses.
The collaboration
Chainbreaker: The Umbral Ascent
The game and the film work around it, made together and credited apart.
