It’s not a big deal, but frequent enough to mention, as well as characters walking through one another, or nowhere to be found. Other than the puzzles, interacting with NPCs mid-flow was often problematic with them wandering off while you’ll selecting an item from your inventory, inadvertently pressing a button to ‘keep their attention’. It was no surprise that Beyond A Steel Sky is a challenging game. However, after a nasty kidnapping (when are they ever nice?), Foster finds himself back on the city’s doorstep, and naturally, he’s keen to look up his pal. Ten years after the first adventure, Foster remains in the Gap, and Joey runs Union City.

Using a cell-shade like aesthetic comparable to Borderlands and Mad Max due to its Australian setting, we control Robert Foster directly with the controller and point his gaze to the area we wish to interact with, rather than using an on-screen cursor. Source: Screen captureīeyond A Steel Sky is very much the same, again, with impressive visuals. If you haven’t played it, you can get it free on GOG. That, and Leisure Suit Larry Looking For Love (In Several Wrong Places), took an age to finish. Besides the stunning visuals, courtesy of Dave Gibbons (yes, him), I remember it being bloody hard and on floppies that equalled my height.
