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 brief, contemplative top-down exploration where loneliness is conveyed through the silent, metaphorical movements of simple shapes.

What players say
Players describe it as a very short, minimalist metaphor for loneliness where other squares flee from you. Many find it deeply relatable, but some argue there is barely any gameplay and the positive reviews may be trolling. The experience takes only a minute or two.
