So is she actually a government agent of some kind or is she just a corporate spy? Is the Japanese company she’s working for in our world or the game world? If the former, was Ray aware the whole time that she was a in a game? Why does the Japanese company need a puzzle dependency chart?

P.S. Hint tron doesn’t seem to work in final chapter of the game.

Everything’s open to interpretation, but my guess is: she is a government agent but also a corporate spy. The game company is a real world one, but Ray doesn’t know it’s a game. The company needs the dependency chart because it’s the best invention ever for point and click games.

What makes you think so? When she gets “downloaded” she seems to be aware that she is in a simulation.

I mean, Ray doesn’t know it throughout the game before the reveal. She finds it out at the same time as the other characters.
