OneShot is a surreal puzzle adventure game developed by the indie studio Future Cat and published by KOMODO. Based on a free version made in 2014, it was released for Windows on December 8, 2016.
OneShot gameplay and plot breaks the fourth wall and involve metafictional elements. Many of the puzzles involve interacting with the computer's operating system outside the game, but the console version, or the World Machine edition, has a fake operating system inside of the game. Narratively, the player is separate from the protagonist, Niko. The latter arrives in a world without sunlight and aims to restore it by replacing its sun, a large lightbulb, at the top of a tower.
