Wires and Whiskers is Out Now!

Wires and Whiskers is officially out! 🐭⚡
[p][/p][p]▶️ \[Play now]

In this fast-paced 2-player local co-op game, one of you plays a cyber lab gerbil and the other, its armed exosuit. You’ll have to coordinate movement, attacks, and magnetic powers to survive an irradiated world of hostile machines.[/p][p]
[/p][p]- Couch co-op or Steam Remote Play Together support[/p][p]- Dynamic mix of 2.5D navigation and top-down combat[/p][p]- Two unique roles: agile melee vs. ranged magnetic powers[/p][p]- Mutant enemies, tight puzzles, and smart coordination[/p][p]- Playable in ~30 minutes — ideal for a quick, tactical session!

🎮 Controller Required: One player must use a controller, the other can use keyboard & mouse (or preferably another controller). Keyboard-only support is possible for the gerbil character only, but not recommended.
