In this episode of Retro-Spec, Indigo takes a look at Looking Glass Studios, the developer behind Ultima Underworld, System Shock, Thief and many more classic games that inspire games we play two decades later.
In part one of three of the series "Through the Looking Glass", we cover the beginning of the company starting from Origin Systems with the release of Space Rogue, through the founding of Paul Neurath's Blue Sky Productions, to the formation of Looking Glass Technologies/Studios and the creation of both Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss and Ultima Underworld II: Labyrinth of Worlds.
