According to a former DMA developer who joined the company months before GTA 1 was released, the mood in the studio was pretty bleak. “Midway through development, the game was not clear in which direction it was going,” said McDonald. “It was also so buggy that I couldn’t play it for more than a few minutes without crashing.” Players might suggest that not much has changed – and “basically there wasn’t much faith in” periods.
