How co-op works
Two-player local co-op with one player controlling Nuna and the other Fox. Nuna moves heavy obstacles, climbs ropes, and throws her bola, while Fox reaches narrow or elevated routes; both abilities are required throughout the puzzle-platforming journey.
About this game
Never Alone brings Iñupiaq culture to life through the journey of Nuna, a young girl, and her arctic fox companion as they brave an endless blizzard threatening their homeland. This atmospheric puzzle-platformer blends traditional storytelling with environmental challenges, offering both solo play with character-switching and local co-op where each player controls one character.

Players navigate frozen landscapes, solve environmental puzzles, and overcome natural hazards by combining the unique abilities of both characters. The fox can reach tight spaces and trigger spirits, while Nuna handles physical obstacles and throws her bola. Success depends on coordinating movement and timing, making communication essential when playing together.
Designed for local couch co-op on Windows, Mac, and Linux, the game supports split-screen and single-screen play, with Steam Remote Play Together extending the experience online. Sessions emphasize quiet teamwork and shared problem-solving, creating a contemplative cooperative experience that rewards patience and coordination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we play this online together?
Never Alone is designed for local couch co-op, but you can play online with a friend using Steam Remote Play Together, which streams the game from one player's PC to the other.
How does co-op work with two different characters?
One player controls Nuna, the girl who can throw her bola and handle physical obstacles, while the other controls Fox, who fits through tight spaces and interacts with spirits. You'll need to coordinate both characters' abilities to solve environmental puzzles and progress through the frozen landscapes.
Can I play this solo or do I need a partner?
You can play solo by switching between Nuna and Fox yourself, or play local co-op with a partner where each person controls one character. The co-op mode emphasizes communication and teamwork, but both options are fully supported.
Is this a hard-action game or more puzzle-focused?
Never Alone is an atmospheric puzzle-platformer that emphasizes quiet teamwork and problem-solving over intense action. It rewards patience and coordination as you navigate environmental challenges and natural hazards together.
