I get kidnapped, nearly killed in a 'copter crash, hunted by professional thugs... and I'm stuck with a ROBOT in a SULK!"''-->-- '''Robert Foster''', exchanging angry words with his belligerent robot Joey''Beneath a Steel Sky'' is a British PointAndClick video game created by Creator/RevolutionSoftware. The game was released for PC DOS and UsefulNotes/{{Amiga}} platforms in 1994. It came in two basic versions for both of those platforms: a text-heavy disk-based affair with minimal sound effects and a more lavish [[CompactDisc CD-ROM]] production with full music and speech, the latter of which was unusual considering the limitations of most computer systems of the era. The artwork and general style was partially created by [[Comicbook/{{Watchmen}} Dave Gibbons]], whose illustrations grace the [[CompactDisc PC CD-ROM]] version's introduction video, with the subtitles using comic-book style [[EmphasiseEverything EMPHASIS]] on [[BoldInflation KEYWORDS]].The player controls a character called Rob Foster. Rob was rescued by a tribe of bandits as a child after he was found as the only surviving member of a helicopter crash, on which his mother was also a passenger. He is raised by the tribe and comes to look upon them as his family, learning skills such as hunting and building himself a robot from discarded scraps found in local garbage dumps. They inhabit a barren wasteland known as "The Gap", a deserted area that was once part of the Australian outback, a harsh place where daily survival is a struggle.They are brutally set upon by a team of Security agents from Union City, a sprawling metropolis with millions of inhabitants, looking for someone named Overmann. After kidnapping Foster, destroying his robot's shell, and setting off in a helicopter, the leader of the forces gives the order to detonate an explosive, wiping out both the tribe and the land on which they lived. Overcome with emotion, Foster is restrained by the guards as they make their way back to the city. Without warning, the chopper spins out of control and crashes in Union City's industrial district, killing the pilot and all the passengers but two: Foster and an over-zealous Security agent named Reich. Climbing from the wreckage, he retreats to a nearby factory amidst a hail of laser fire. Reich proceeds to hunt him down, all the while referring to him as Overmann.Union City, the "steel sky" of the title, is a classic {{dystopia}}n {{cyberpunk}} setting full of selfish, morally flexible, and hilarious characters who don't much care for Rob, Joey, and their unusual ways. Staying undercover and stealing anything of use, Rob endeavours to resurrect his robot companion, find a way out of the city, and find the mysterious Overmann, who somehow seems connected to the supercomputer that forms the backbone of their society, known simply as LINC.Beneath a Steel Sky was very well received upon release, with particular praise directed at the stylish graphics and darkly humourous off-kilter dialogue. Nevertheless, it failed to reach a larger audience and remains something of a forgotten gem, although Revolution Software commendably made it freeware to coincide with [[http://www.scummvm.org/ ScummVM]] porting the game using its custom engine, which means it can now be played on a variety of platforms. A "Remastered" edition was released for the iPhone in September 2009, which fixes some of the minor issues with the original game, features an intuitive new interface and an improved musical score.Revolution have also several times voiced their intention to make a sequel, and have officially announced that they're working on it, but it is DevelopmentHell. The company is working on other projects, but intend to continue development in the near future.!!This fine adventure game provides examples of:* AIIsACrapshoot: LINC took over the Council and became an evil dictator of Union City.** Also played for laughs with [[RobotBuddy Joey]]. He's Rob's friend, but he has more than a few moments of ComedicSociopathy.* ArcWords: ** Rob often asks the question "Do you know a guy called Overmann?" and as the story unfolds he learns the power that name holds.** Joey's line "I take my orders from Overmann!" is an example of this, about a third into the game. [[spoiler:Oddly enough, it turns out to be the truth.]]* AuthorFilibuster: Given the weighty subject matter, they pretty much managed to avoid preaching a message about the evils of technology.* BackAlleyDoctor: The unbelievably unscrupulous Burke, who operates on patients for no reason whilst huffing gas, performs bizarre cosmetic surgery procedures in the name of fashion, and trades in people's organs. He also turned his dead wife into a holographic receptionist.* BatmanGambit: The plans laid out to foil Rob in his goal to uncover the mysteries of the city. He played right into [[spoiler:LINC's]] hands and didn't even realize it.* BadassLongcoat: Rob's stylish silver, gray, and black garment. Handy for concealing a crowbar, amongst other things.* BlackAndGrayMorality: Rob versus everyone in Union City. ** For example, Robert [[DisproportionateRetribution disproportionately]] [=de-LINCs=] Gilbert Lamb and freezes Lamb's assets in order to steal a videotape that he needs as a distraction while Robert steals from his living ally, Mrs. Piermont, so that Robert can send her dog treading water in the park to distract a guard so that Robert can sneak into a church. What Robert actually catches Lamb doing is being disrespectful to Anita and sending her to the "testing area" and bragging that his coat is made from the world's last ten beavers. There is no sign calling the radiation-soaked area the "testing area", and Robert does not catch Lamb de-[=LINCing=] anyone nor freezing anyone's assets. However, Robert's motivations are commendable.** [[spoiler:But given Lamb's negligence leading to Anita's death, and the file saying that he may have received his promotion through dubious means, the retribution may be minor compared to what he's guilty for.]]* BlackComedy: At least the first two thirds of the game. Then the horror becomes predominant over the comedy.* BlessedWithSuck: In a very minor instance, most of Robert's organs are not suitable for donation because he is ''too healthy''. Anyone who actually lived their entire lives in the city is so weakened by the toxic environment that the transplanted organ would reject ''them''.* BodyHorror: Revealed in one of the game's closing scenes.* BookEnds: the game proper opens with Reich escorting Robert into Union City by helicopter, and at the end, he leaves solo on another chopper, headed back to the Gap, [[spoiler: even though his own tribe is dead]].* BoldInflation: To a fashion. The GAME emphasizes certain WORDS in dialogue, by typing them OUT in CAPITAL letters. It CAN be quite DISTRACTING at TIMES. Especially when the voice acting EMPHASIS doesn't MATCH, which is NATURALLY most of the TIME.* BondOneLiner: After [[spoiler:Reich gets sliced in two,]] Foster gives us [[spoiler:"Reich seemed pretty cut up about all this!"]]* BrickJoke: Rob gets complimented on his jumper by Potts in Gilbert Lamb's pipe factory, but it's not until quite a lot further on when we catch a glimpse of said jumper. Incidentally, this is one of the [[{{CrowningMomentOfFunny}} most hilarious moments]].* BrokenRecord: The jukebox song "You Search, but Find Nothing", part of a puzzle solution. The game doesn't clarify whether this is why Colston hates the record, or if he just hates the song in general, though.* ButThouMust: It wouldn't be an adventure game without it! Perhaps the most infamous moment would be Rob donating his testicles to Dr. Burke in exchange for a Schriebmann port (after having exhausted other trading options, understandably enough). Good thing it's a post-mortem deal, huh?* TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: Try as he might, Rob can't seem to escape his fate.* CaptainObvious: Usually Joey's job, not that he's terribly happy to do it most of the time.* {{Catchphrase}}: "Be vigilant". Used in a variety of ways and by different people.* CompanionCube: Foreman Potts and his clipboard.* ConspicuousCG: Reich's helicopter in the introductory sequence. [[spoiler:A helicopter used by Foster appears at the ending as well.]]* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: Twice, once when Rob's mother died in an aircraft hull loss, and again when Reich blew up Rob's tribe and foster family. Another aircraft hull loss soon followed. One of the reveals is that [[spoiler:LINC's creator, absorbed into LINC, was the [[GlorifiedSpermDonor neglectful father]] [[LukeIAmYourFather of the protagonist]]]].* CoolChair: Most of the time Rob will claim he is too busy to sit down, but the chair in Burke's office is too good to resist.--> '''Rob:''' What a chair... it's a MASTERPIECE in UPHOLSTERY!--> '''Rob:''' [''after sitting down''] Mmm! Comfortable AND aesthetically pleasing!* CoolShades: Reich has one. Potts thinks it's impressive and asks Robert to give it to him.* CopyProtection: The [[http://www.bombjack.org/commodore/amiga/games/Beneath_a_Steel_Sky_Security_Manual.pdf Security Manual]]* CrateExpectations: There is one in the wine cellar.* CreepyCathedral: The one on ground level. That's where you find the first signs of the android army. Among other things.* CreepyMonotone: [[spoiler: Robert gets this in one of the bad endings, where LINC reasserts control over a new host: Robert himself.]]* CruellaToAnimals: Lamb takes pride in the fact that his coat is made of beaver fur. From the world's last ten beavers.* CrypticConversation: Rob's first encounter with Gallagher down in Belle Vue, which [[ItMakesSenseInContext makes sense in context]]. Seriously, complete the game and then go back to that scene and run the conversation again.* {{Cyberpunk}}: It doesn't just have elements of this, it '''IS''' this. Rob is as unfamiliar with the future city as we are, and his observations act as a commentary on topics like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhumanism Transhumanism]].* {{Cyberspace}}: How [=LINCspace=] works.* DeadpanSnarker: Joey can rarely say a line without biting sarcasm and critique of Rob's incompetence. He provides a lot of the humour which makes the game fun to play; try getting him to analyze inventory items.* DiabolusExNihilo: A large, tentacled monster lurks in the subway, and its origins are never explained. Since it's scared away by light, it could be [[VideoGame/{{Zork}} a grue.]]* DigitalAvatar: Anyone who jacks into LINC-Space appears as a purple, [[BarbieDollAnatomy semi-nude]] representation of themselves. Strangely, Robert Foster lacks his hair [[spoiler: while Anita doesn't]].* DoAndroidsDream: The further into the game you get, the more this question looms over you.* {{Dubtitle}} / FunWithSubtitles: Due more to lack of attention to detail than anything else, often the spoken dialogue and written dialogue are different. Sometimes these are regional variations, like changing "spanner" to "wrench", but every so often the line is completely different, although the meaning is the same. This provides an inadvertent source of humour.* {{Dystopia}}: It is natural for the {{Cyberpunk}} setting. The city is controlled by the evil computer LINC.* EasterEgg: On the Amiga version, the programmers hid a little information in the main executable file. It was a short note on how hard it was to get the game running with only 1MB of RAM, written in "Olde Worlde" style English.* EstablishingCharacterMoment: [[FunWithAcronyms BASS]] goes out of its way to provide motivations for the lead character and tells us what sort of person he is quite quickly. Though [[{{Backstory}} backstories]] and long {{cutscene}}s are commonplace now, this was a rare thing in 1994.* EverythingsSatiatingWithSandwiches: Hobbins keeps a sausage sandwich (which contains glycerin) on his small cabinet. Robert can give it to Potts during inspection or to Gilbert.* ExtremelyShortTimespan: Robert's adventures in Union City takes one day to solve the mysteries.* FanDisservice: The middle-aged, chubby Mrs. Piermont wears a ludicrously revealing negligé while at home.* {{Foreshadowing}}: All over the place. Seemingly throwaway lines and scenes can give clues to what happens later, in terms of both plot and puzzle-solving.* FreudWasRight:** Hobbins on Mrs. Piermont:-->"She wanted me to FLUSH her OVERFLOW pipe."** And that noisy hydraulic press in the recycling plant.--> "It's wheezing and banging...Like an asthmatic dinosaur in the mating season!"* FunWithAcronyms: LINC, which actually stands for '''L'''ogical '''I'''nter-'''N'''eural '''C'''onnection.* GainaxEnding: No-one could have predicted the conclusion. Very unusual, no easy answers.* GameBreakingBug: Both PC versions and the Amiga disk version, and all the subsequent [=ScummVM=] ports of them, are stable. But the [=CD32=] version is riddled with problems... the code system used to save the game wasn't tested, and some codes will freeze the game as they fail to load certain key files the game needs to run. Not to mention the way the music ducks in and out unevenly on the volume slider, how the speech takes ages to load due to the slow CD drive and poor use of buffering or that sometimes cuts half the music while it plays, and several other things. Which is a shame, as it could have been the best version if more time had been spent fixing the flaws.* GuideDangIt: It's hard to figure out that the putty is [[spoiler:plastic explosives]]. [[spoiler:Joey tells you that if you show it to him.]] Also those damn tongs at the endgame. PixelHunt, anyone?** Have fun finding out that Joey will ONLY follow you up and down the elevators if he's in the same screen as Rob when he enters said elevators. Seriously, go into any BASS forum and see how many threads about "Joey is not following me" exist. Go on, we'll wait.* GrandTheftMe: A chilling, non-human version. To say any more would ruin the finale.* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: The guards from Security Services never realized that Robert is roaming around the city.* GoneHorriblyWrong: Doesn't it always?* HoistByHisOwnPetard: This happened to LINC's creator.* HotScientist: Anita. She's not quite a scientist but she's tech savvy and fits the description to perfection.* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Discussed in the epilogue. LINC became evil because it learned the human weaknesses.---> ''[[spoiler: Overmann]]'': The fusion process was an apparent success, but the computer shared access to my human failings. It learned of greed, of vanity. It reveled in the power it wielded. I was almost powerless in the hands of this monster.---> ''Robert'': Which is the monster[[spoiler:, father]]? The computer, or you?* ImpossiblyCoolClothes: Rob's quasi-futuristic outfit, though amusingly throughout the game people poke fun at it and him.** Except Foreman Potts, who loves the sweater he wears underneath his black/silver robes.** Rob seems to be pretty happy with his outfit though, although this was possibly just for the sheer pun of it.--->''Technician'': You can't come in here without a rad suit!--->''Rob'': What do you mean? This suit is totally rad!--->''Technician'': I mean protective clothing.* InterfaceSpoiler: Sort of, [[spoiler:the manual spoils Foster's ''real'' name.]]* JustEatGilligan: At several points, there would seem to be easier options to leave the city but you can't take them. Thanks to good writing, this isn't jarring and probably not even things you'll notice if you're playing for the first time.* KangarooCourt: Subverted for laughs in a cutscene. Howard Hobbins, the maintenance man you met at the beginning of the game is put on trial as a consequence of some of the puzzles you solved while in the city, which caused some damage in the process, and he has you defend him. The presiding judge Chutney is eager to cast his sentence, and talks as if the whole scenario is a game show to him rather than a trial. No matter what sort of statements you make, including calling your ally Mrs. Piermont as a witness, though, Chutney will always say this line.--> Judge Chutney: "Howard Hobbins, you have won tonight's star prize," *Security logo flashes colors with game show music* "LIFE IMPRISONMENT!" *beat* "However, in view of your service to the city, I'm going to reduce your sentence. Two hours community service."* KarmicDeath: What happens to Reich seems only fair, given his disregard for human life.* KindheartedCatLover: Subverted with Gilbert Lamb. He's devoted to his cat, but is otherwise a horrible human being.* KleptomaniacHero: Thankfully this doesn't mean you end up carrying around a bunch of junk. There are very few {{red herring}}s, and best of all there is some LampshadeHanging on Rob being a thief, most notably what happens when Foreman Potts searches him after rummaging around in a store room. If anything, this is one the few games where this is a JustifiedTrope via FridgeBrilliance. Robert's {{backstory}} involves growing up in The Gap, where scavenging junk and improvising what you need from whatever comes to hand is a fact of tribal life. Hence, his collecting various knick-knacks and using them to [[{{Macgyvering}} MacGyver up]] solutions to his problems is simply what he's used to. * LampshadeHanging: Robert does it quite often. For example:** When he uses a grappling hook [[spoiler: to swing from the factory's fire exit to the security building]] he says "This could be the most stupid thing I've ever done". The second time he swings across using the same cable, he says "This could be the second most stupid thing I've ever done".** Near the end there is a closed door. When you click on it, Robert says "I've gut a hunch I've got to open that".[[note]]he doesn't have to.[[/note]]* {{Leitmotif}}: Hobbins and Mrs. Piermont have their own theme music.* LineOfSightName: In the original version of the intro, the tribe's leader gives Robert his last name from a can of Foster's Lager. This was later removed due to trademark issues.* LivingLegend: Subverted and [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] to Reich. He is mentioned by a police officer who is guarding the wrecked helicopter but not knowing that Reich is already dead.* LoveInterests: Anita - in an interesting subversion, she helps him escape his plight as much as he helps her achieve her goals. Sadly, it doesn't end well.* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:Dad, way transhuman long ago, and recently made somewhat transhuman son meet as enemies in an ultra urban setting. Unlike ''Franchise/StarWars'', there don't seem to be any lightsabers in the game nor a protagonist stealing everything of use on the Death Star, but there are great similarities between ''Franchise/StarWars'' and ''Beneath a Steel Sky''.]]* MadScientist: This easily falls to [[spoiler:the LINC committee]], but the worst one of all is definitely [[spoiler:Rob's father]].* MasterComputer: LINC.* MayContainEvil: The LINC gazette mentions action being taken against a fast food chain whose food contained an unacceptably high level of human waste.* MeaningfulName: Overmann, in more ways than one. Also Reich -- from the name alone you can probably tell what kind of character he is.* MeatMoss: [[spoiler:A feature of the underground tunnels beneath the surface, and evidence of the "evil beneath the city" the old man envisions in the opening cut-scene. Even used in a couple of puzzles.]]* TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody: Joey's personality changes subtly when he gets a new shell. [[spoiler: {{Foreshadowing}} how LINC is affected by its host.]]* MindRape: Played with; a sort of self-mind-rape, if you will.** A straight version can happen to [[spoiler:Rob.]]* MindScrew: There is a lot of symbolism in the game, some subtle and some obvious. If you play it enough times, you can make sense of most of it, but some are best left to the imagination. Notable in that the game doesn't just do this for art's sake; it was meant as a staple of the narrative.* {{Mooks}}: The entire Security team, and they're sometimes [[ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy pretty poor shots too]].* MoralityPet: The only thing that makes Lamb slightly less than completely despicable is his fondness for his cat, Couscous.* MrFixit: Hobbins, who turns up whenever some kind of machinery goes wrong. He even "lends" Rob his trusty wrench, which is key to solving certain puzzles. Rob also qualifies for this as he does spend quite a lot of time repairing items on his quest.* MrMuffykins: Mrs. Piermont's dog, Spunky. When its owner is the richest woman in the city, it's almost to be expected.* NightmarishFactory: The pipe factory treats its employees about as well as you'd expect from a factory in a dystopian city with no respect for human life. Anita isn't even given a radiation suit while working in the reactor. [[spoiler:She ends up dying of radiation poisoning.]]* NonStandardGameOver: You can get one at the end, if you [[spoiler:get plugged into LINC, either voluntarily or involuntarily]]. It's not at all pretty.* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:Gallagher's bizarre riddles and generally odd behavior, as well as Walter's self-important and clueless demeanor,]] easily hide the fact that they're [[spoiler:murderous androids created by LINC.]]* OrganicTechnology: [[spoiler:Tons of veins and arteries -- evidently acting as wires -- can be seen throughout the complex housing LINC. Once Joey takes over, they get cleared up.]]* PixelHunt: The C4 consists of a single brown pixel on a grey-brown background. At least you can [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential stick it into a live socket afterwards...]]* PuttingOnTheReich: The Security officers have typical distopian policeman uniforms (i.e. something that resembles SS uniforms). The commander of the team bringing Robert back to the city is even called Reich.* TheReveal: At the end they come thick and fast, with each subsequent reveal more bold and shocking than the last! You might guess a few, but you'll never see them all coming.* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: [[spoiler:They're out there, and it's impossible to know who really IS human.]]* RobotBuddy: Joey, and he's even more free-willed than [[Franchise/StarWars R2D2]].* SequelHook: Added to the "Remastered" version of the game for iOS devices, which serves as an animated epilogue after the ending.* ShoutOut: Lots of pop culture references to be found, some more obscure than others.** Joey's initial incarnation uses a rather familiar voice distortion effect. Why? When Rob first gives Joey the welding shell, this happens:-->'''Joey''': [[Series/DoctorWho EX-TER-MI-NATE! EX-TER-MI-NATE!]]-->'''Rob''': And cut that out!* SinisterShades: Reich wears mirror shades, as seen in the intro [[DoomedHometown where they reflect Rob's village getting blown up.]]* SinisterSubway: LINC is reachable through an old subway tunnel. There is also a monster lurking about there.* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism: In a world full of cynics this is an interesting proposition; who can be ''less'' idealistic?* SnarkyNonHumanSidekick: Joey, the wise-cracking back-talking robot who enjoys criticizing things and one day dreams of using his welding tool to kill people. Seriously, this is [[{{WesternAnimation/Futurama}} Bender]] five years before the fact.* StayInTheKitchen: Lamb's attitude to women is terrible. He treats Anita like a slave, and he can get away with it because of his status.* StockBritishPhrases: Used in a savvy way, mostly. Including the time when Anita tells Rob that his idiom about getting a Schriebmann port is ''actually a description of the procedure itself''.** "Mostly" is right. Rob is inexplicably prone to using British phrases, particularly the term "smart" to describe something "cool", which is hardly becoming of a guy with an American accent.* StuffedIntoTheFridge: [[spoiler:Anita survives until Robert visits a locker in the church, where he finds her radiation burned remains stuffed into a locker. It's as if opening the locker causes her to die and teleports her remains there.]]* TerminallyDependentSociety: Union City and its residents are completely dependant on LINC, and shutting it down would spell disaster.* ToneShift: Starts out as a BlackComedy. The last third or so of the game, however, is far more "black" and far less "comedy".* TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture: Like all classic genre works, this is a necessity. Though cleverly the production team kept future embellishments simple and believable.* UnusualUserInterface: The only way to get into [=LINCspace=] is by getting a Schriebmann port, which is an unconventional way to get online, to put it mildly.* VerbalTic: Billy Anchor often adds the word "yeah" when talking to his clients.* WidowWoman: Mrs. Piermont. Her husband Helmut died during the construction of LINC.* YouKilledMyFather: Part of the final reveal, but is the father in question really dead, and is he really avenged?* {{Zeerust}}: ** [=LINCspace=] is an almost painfully '90s vision of [[InsideAComputerSystem immersive cyberspace]].** VHS is still being used in cyberpunk dystopia.----

A.J. Ellis fresh off catching Clayton Kershaw's no-hitter
Los Angeles Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis joined Jay Mohr Sports on Thursday fresh off catching Clayton Kershaw's no-hitter. We asked him at what point during the game he thought it could happen and explained why, twice a week, no one talks to Kershaw...
Mohr: "How soon into the game did you think, wow, this guy is lights out?"
Ellis: "It's pretty cliché to say, but warming up in the bullpen he was locked in. His breaking balls were really coming in nice and as the game progressed we were able to get a lead. The game wasn't in doubt anymore. You then kind of focus on pitching a little bit differently, try to get some more strikeouts, and see if we can get this thing done. But you have to give Clayton all the credit. He just dominated from the fifth inning on. I've never caught him on a night when his slider and curve were both in top form."
Mohr: "We all know you don't talk to a pitcher during a no hitter.... But you (as the catcher) have to go out there and talk to him at some point. Do you ever feel like you're putting a whammy on him, or do you just throw it out the window and not talk to him at all?"
Ellis: "That's what's great about Clayton.......Last night wasn't any different (than normal) because you can't talk to Clayton during any game."
Mohr: "Really?"
Ellis: "Yeah, he's a character actor. On his game days he turns into a super animal, and he's so locked in and competitive. He doesn't want any small talk during the game at all. If he's not talking about pitching and the game plan, there's really no need for conversation (for him). Then on the other days he is the most outgoing teammate we have. He's a great guy to have around, but on his game day, it's his day to shine."
