 The game began development in September 1995 , as part of a publishing deal with BMG Interactive . When this deal fell through , the development team turned their focus to the Nintendo 64 , which allowed for a more advanced environment and model processing . The hardware also shaped the game 's humour and style , with a soft focus look leading to a style akin to Plasticine models . The game 's distinct British humour was also used to distinguish it from other games . Similarly , the game 's music was created to resemble B movies .
