The Spy Who Shrunk Me

"The Spy Who Shrunk Me was created by an untalented team comprised of multiple brain dead team members of various states of drunkedness," is the first message you see when launching the game. After playing 20 minutes, I was extremely disappointed to realize that it wasn't a joke. :-/ This is an extremely buggy mess. I lost the ability to crouch less than a minute into the game. I had a showstopping bug in level 2, so I reloaded the last checkpoint (no manual saves), and that caused the gadget I was holding to disappear and I couldn't get it back. Clipping and poor physics are rampant, and some models appear to be unfinished. You can't re-map keys, which I think is an unforgivable sin for any developer. And why is this 20GB?? This game is much smaller and less detailed than NOLF, which was 1GB. This is a total flaming wreck, is virtually unplayable, and shouldn't have been released. It's a shame, because this game has some clever ideas. But they are executed poorly. When you "knock out" an enemy, they stay down for like 2 seconds. Shrinking an enemy and putting them in a trash bin or shredder is a fun concept, but it turns out that dropping a shrunken enemy anywhere at all causes …

its ok, bit expensive for whats here, i couldnt get past the stupid missile platforming section. Stop forcing ppl to platform in first person, especially when we cant look, move, jump, crouch, all at the same time (no controller rebinding) guess ill go try NOLF now

Could not get past "Hack the system" due to glitch. Wasn't really impressed.

The Spy Who Shrunk Me is an indie stealth adventure that embraces campy spy fiction with full enthusiasm, offering a playful and unconventional take on infiltration. Developed by Catland and co-published with Adjective Animal, it stars Audrey Smoothspy, a hyper-competent secret agent dropped into a Cold War conspiracy involving shadowy corporations, Soviet facilities, and questionable scientific breakthroughs. Rather than trying to mimic serious espionage thrillers, the game leans into humor, pulpy storytelling, exaggerated villains, and over-the-top gadgets. The tone is intentionally lighthearted, aiming more for stylish absurdity than grounded realism, and that commitment gives the experience a sense of personality that many stealth titles lack. At its core, the game plays like a first-person stealth sandbox, but its biggest twist is the shrink ray—an all-purpose tool that completely changes how missions can be approached. Shrinking enemies allows for non-traditional takedowns, whether through environmental traps or simple bypassing, while shrinking yourself opens vents, alternate pathways, and hiding spots that larger characters never notice. Alongside the shrink ray, the arsen…

overall a good game but i will warn it poorly optimized on a 1660 Ti it was using 100% of my gpu even on the lowest setting which looks just about nothing different from ultra. but the game play it self had a lot of fun moments and neat puzzles. for 10 dollars it well worth it.
