These timelines encompass various materials such as photographs, artwork, magazine articles, design documents, archive videos, and new interviews, providing deeper context for each of the 103 games.
Digital Eclipse has also adapted its interactive timeline structure into a new series called the Gold Master Series, focusing on specific games, series, or creators. The inaugural project in this series, The Making of Karateka, received high praise for its superbly curated interactive documentation.
