In Episode 1 of Martha Uncovered, a behind-the-scenes series for the Martha is Dead video game published on the Wired Productions (the publisher of the game) YouTube channel, the creators of the game went deeper into the process. Lorenzo Nocchi, the 3D artist for the game, explains within the video that it was important to the creators of the game to differentiate themselves from other horror titles and delve deeper into the psychological horror aspect of the game. For this reason, they created Martha is Dead to have no jumpscares.
