Skin Deep Is 2025's Best Cat Game

Skin Deep Is 2025's Best Cat Game https://ift.tt/CIcwynG My favorite moment in Skin Deep, an immersive sim and stealth game about rescuing cats and fighting your evil clone in deep space, was always the one immediately after a thoroughly developed plan inevitably went sideways.
