Stray

Stray is a gorgeous indie story game by BlueTwelve Studio. You control a cat, lost in a city of AI robots who are learning & creating their own culture, trying to find their way home to their family outside the walls.

The only downside to this game is its lack of photomode. It’s stunning & well crafted, & I spent my playthough entirely wanting to document that. All of these images are taken by meticulously controlling the angle of view for the cat.
