WHAT WE FIXED: 4YR - U BEING SO DIFFICULT Right in the beginning of the game 4YR used to get stuck and there was no way to get around this. This has now been fixed, including in existing gamesaves - so no need to start over! Why did this happen: Every character has a floor angle they can travel on, and 4YR’s was set to 0. When 4YR experienced anything more than 0 he got anxious and told Unreal Engine that he was, in fact, currently falling. And Unreal Engine was very understanding and worried about him and chose to wait… and wait… and wait.. And wait.. UE4: are you- 4YR: nope still falling Unr

Beyond A Steel Sky is a 3D point-and-click adventure game which is the sequel to 1994’s 2D point-and-click-adventure game Beneath A Steel Sky. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t play the first one, although some knowledge is helpful. You play as Robert Foster, returning to a futuristic city-state he freed from an evil AI ten years ago, because new bad things are afoot (these involving kidnapping children from the land outside the city). You have to infiltrate the city, team up with your robot pal Joey, and save the day. In its final form, this is looking a lot better than when
