Well, I ain’t no animal scientist but most fur patterns that I’m aware of exist to either make the animal blend in (by being the same color as stuff around them) or to break up their form so it’s harder to recognize from a distance, and I can see how being literally cut in half color wise could help break up their shape
Again that’s just a guess on my part tho
Scooby Doo Night of 100 Frights on the ps2, other than that maybe Freddie Fish or one of the other humongous games on mac
