“Walking simulator” is a fairly recent sub-genre term for a game whose only proper mechanics are, in fact, wandering through the story itself. In the case of Beyond Eyes, it can be applied almost literally. It’s a fascinating premise for a novella in video game form and a noble attempt to express the sensory challenges a blind person faces, but with little else but the story to rely on, Beyond Eyes’ plot just isn’t up to the task.
Painterly adventure game Beyond Eyes will soon be delisted from digital storefronts due to a dispute between the dev and publisher Team17.
That's nice, you can just torrent the PC version it's still up with seeds 😀 You can delist anything you want don't care I can always get it and keep it forever 🤣
A shame, I have it on PS4, so I can always re-download it. But this is another reason why the "all digital future" is going to be awful. Disputes and licenses running out is bad for gaming preservation. And so really the only option in the future is piracy. Sucks it has to be that way, but that's the way it goes.

this game looked so interesting, too.
I'll still play it for the concept.
the heck ign? I totally expected them to give this thing a 10 praising it for not really being a game. Interactive movies are their jam.
An interesting concept that turned into dogmeat. Too bad.
Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is this style game done right.
