With EGX Rezzed in full swing, I managed to pop by the Team17 booth and checked out what was on display. I'm thankful I did, as Beyond Eyes is easily one of the most fascinating games I played whilst at Rezzed this year.
In Beyond Eyes, you play as Rae, a girl who lost her ability to see due to a fireworks accident she was involved in when she was even younger.
