Mobile to PC transitions are rare, but there's a real chance for success. For Mi-Clos' Out There, it's a huge win. AUTOMATON's Graham Arthur takes a look at the beta version of Out There's Omega Edition.
Check out the games for those who want to boldly go to unknown times and place.
Most of these were available for a long time before NMS came out, especially Rodina.

"We first posted about the huge incoming update to Mi-Clos Studio's excellent Out There back in July 2014, and the iOS version has finally landed today. We've had a brief chance to jump in and check out the shiny new makeover and can confidently give it the thumbs up."
Out There completely nailed atmosphere with the whole package that it tied together with music, mystery, exploration and spaceship management.
You hear some complaining online about the random nature of deaths in this game and to me that is part of what makes the game. It's serene and beautiful and yet always has you on the knife's edge of death, which in a way keeps you in the moment and has you always paying attention to what is going on, due to every moment potentially being your last.
I found it a great experience, and the Omega Edition is just a big fat bonus.
A fantastic game that’s easy to learn, hard as hell to play, but you’ll enjoy every second of it.
