November 13, 2026 – Estonian indie developer Superposition NULL and publisher CM Games today announced UnLoop: Flat As Your Ass.
The D.I.C.E. Awards-nominated VR puzzler UnLoop – rated 98% positive on Steam – is coming to PC... What?
Well, technically it was already on PC, but now you won't need a VR headset: it's flat! Flat as your... actually, never mind.
Closed beta sign-ups and wishlists are live on Steam today.
At its core, Flat As Your Ass packs the complete puzzle campaign from the VR original stripped of headset requirements and visually upgraded with ray tracing (plus brand-new co-op modes, but more on that in a second).
For anyone stepping into the facility for the first time, here's the setup:
You play as an infiltration agent trapped inside a retro-futuristic research station caught in a temporal loop. The twist? Time doesn't just reset – it records. Every time you run out of time or die, a living, breathing temporal replica of your past self is created, faithfully mimicking every step, physical gesture, and even your actual recorded voice.
Progression requires coordinating with the most unreliable teammate imaginable: YOU. Help yourself escape traps, toss keycards across rooms, or execute a flawed replica when the plan inevitably falls apart. Death isn't a game over here: it's an instant rewind that spawns yet another copy, giving you front-row seats to watch yourself mess up in real time.
Players asked. The loop listened.
Ever since UnLoop came out in VR – and earned a 4.9★ rating from more than 1,100 players on Meta Quest – one question kept popping up in the game's forums: "Is there really no way to play on desktop?" Players had watched others play, wanted in, and didn't have (or want) a headset. Now there's a way. UnLoop: Flat As Your Ass is the full game, running on the PC you already have.
Co-op made the cut, too. The feature VR players repeatedly asked to "squeeze into this" is finally here. And don't worry, headset loyalists: you aren't being abandoned! This playtest is the ultimate proving ground. If the mode turns out to be as fun as you promised, co-op will make its way back to the VR version, too.
What's in it
- Your PC is enough: the exact same UnLoop, no headset required, now with ray tracing. Full controller support, and it runs smoothly on Steam Deck at Medium settings.
- Classic co-op in a game about self-co-op: go online with up to 8 players, each with their own copies, and let your friends watch you argue with yourself in real time. Or have an entire lobby watch.
- Couch co-op with a backseat drone: only one PC? Your friend flies a spectator drone around your head and judges every terrible life choice from a few inches away. Relationships will be tested.
- Me, myself and I, still the worst team ever: every puzzle from the VR version, now on a regular screen.
Every other day someone on the internet uses AI to slap a VR mod onto their favorite game. We decided to reverse the trend, partly for the chaos, but mostly because... well, have you seen our ratings? We were genuinely paranoid that an AI fanatic would beat us to the punch and release a flat version of UnLoop first.
As for the timing, we didn't deliberate long on our announcement date either: going head-to-head with GTA felt like exactly what our marketing strategy needed. The ultimate fate of this inverted experiment now depends entirely on player reception.
That's why the team needs your feedback right now.
Join the Playtest
Hit "Request Access" on the UnLoop: Flat As Your Ass Steam page.
Sign-ups are open for a two-week recruitment window from November 13 to November 27, after which registrations will officially close.
Access will be granted in rolling waves, and you won't have to venture into the time loops alone: every accepted player receives 3 additional friend invites to assemble a squad and test the multiplayer madness together.
While the original VR release was strictly a solo trip where you only ever cooperated with yourself, the flat edition throws actual human beings into the mix. The team needs testers to push the brand-new multiplayer features to their breaking point: test the online co-op with friends, jump into the local couch mode where one player solves loops while the other buzzes around as a spectator drone, and see how badly you can shatter our puzzle logic together. If the netcode melts or physics explode, let us know! The development team's past selves already accept full blame.
