i asked copilot to write a review on this (it fits thematically)

Not really...I have time on my hands anyways

COPYCAT is (for those who don't know) Vegtam's entry into AudieoVisual's Sampling CC. It uses the idea of sampling in a very creative way with the theme being that malware (you) is trying to infiltrate a fictional AI database containing assets from a bunch of levels. As Vegtam said himself, he used the idea of sampling/AI as a medium to talk about how AI profits and uses works from artists without their consent. The decoration and asset usage is surprisingly creative (ironically), and the credit sequence is pretty good too.

Gameplay-wise it's roughly 9/10 star gameplay throughout, and it's not very long due to the intro and outro taking quite a bit of the runtime. However a lot of the drop is spam or buffering which could definitely be improved upon.
