Complex has released their documentary entitled The Hotline Miami Story. The film follows the game from its inception at Dennaton Games as Super Carnage to its explosive release as Hotline Miami. Complex were able to sit down with the developers Dennaton Games, the publishers at Devolver Digital, and other members in the gaming industry to talk about the indie darling.

Hotline Miami was Swedish indie developers Dennaton Games’ break out hit. The game was well received by both critics and buyers, raking in awards and moving over 130,000 copies within the first seven weeks of launch. Since then, the game has been ported to multiple platforms and starred in a crossover DLC with PayDay 2. In early 2015, the game received its first sequel, Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number.
