If you can manage it, that is.
Baby Steps has a special 28-minute cutscene designed for those who’ve skipped the ones that have come before it — provided players have enough skill to do the skipping.
No, really.
According to YouTuber Cuttyflame, players will need to successfully skip “around 30” or so cutscenes to unlock the special 28-minute one. It’s not as simple as holding down a button to do so, of course, as the YouTuber demonstrates in their video — a lot of quitting and reloaded is required, true to the walking simulator itself. Manage to perform the deed, though, and creators Gabe Cuzzillo (Nate) and Bennett Foddy (Moose) will break character and have a long chat about skipping cutscenes, Game of Thrones, broccoli, and everything in-between.
The chat is absolutely worth a listen (and maybe we could convince the pair to start up a podcast or something to continue it?).
While Cuzzillo and Foddy start off pretty hard against those that skip cutscenes, Cuzzillo eventually admits to skipping them himself — except for Ghost of Tsushima, because you can’t — so I wouldn’t feel too bad if you’re guilty of such actions.
Stuart adored Baby Steps, giving the title a 9/10 in our review.
“There are few ways this game could better achieve its aims; in what it is trying to be Baby Steps approaches perfection,” he wrote. “Whether what it is trying to be is for you, well that depends on if you feel that a rapturous level of self satisfaction is worth braving a storm of intense frustration and inconsolable rage. For those with the resolve (or stubbornness, or self loathing, or masochism), you won’t find a better test of all of them than Baby Steps. If you have the resilience of a damp tissue and capacity for frustration of a tired toddler, keep on walking by.”
Baby Steps is currently available on Windows PC and PS5.
