The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A short, silly, and relaxed walk through a day with a character who feels 'eh', filled with light conversations and handwritten journal entries.

What players say

Players describe a short, emotional walking sim about feeling sad sometimes. The hand-drawn art and gentle writing are praised, though catching a character named Robert is a real challenge and some note one achievement requires careful ordering of events in a single run.
