Can anyone name this game?

My girlfriend told me and my friend that she had played a game that "we would know." Obviously, I've come to here because I cannot figure out what it is.

Details:
-First person
-Involves someone in a business suit
-You run through part of a level to do something like toggles a switch on a floor that opens a door, then start over and a clone of you does that same exact thing while you go through the door
-Is not Portal, Braid
-Is on PC
-Released in the past five years

Huge thanks if you can figure this one out.

    I wanted to say PB Winterbottom (http://www.winterbottomgame.com/) - but then I noticed first person.. so I'm not sure.

    Yeah, she said that wasn't it (good guess though). She said the name was kind of simple... hmm.

    The 3rd item (the actual gameplay) describes exactly what you do in the Clank portions of R&C Crack in Time. Wonder if she's mashing up several games at once? If not, and there is a game like that with a different setting on PC, would love to know what it is as well.

    Haha, that's what my friend said too. I wonder if this game actually exists...

    Well, aside from the first person part, it sounds a lot like The Company of Myself

    I was just about to post this.

    (Even if this isn't the game, it's worth playing.)

    This was a retail game? Or could it have been a mod? I think I remember a mod like this.

    Unsure. What mod are you thinking of?

    I wonder if it's actually a clone or just someone who is dressed like you?

    Unfortunately I can't remember the name. I never even played it, just watched some videos. It was an Unreal engine mod, I believe.

    was this a shooter? or strictly an adventure-type game?

    She said no guns were involved. Though, I'd still throw the idea out there if you have one that involves guns.

    I can confirm. I've seen videos of this thing and it indeed runs on the Unreal engine. Not sure if it's a Standalone game or a mod, though.
    Pretty sure it showed up once or twice on RPS.

    Found it. Prometheus, an Unreal mod. Also available as a standalone.

    Yes! This is it, she said! I guess her "business suit" descriptor was off. Thank you!

    Hooray for answers! I put the thread on sink.
