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 meditative loop of mining, selling, and upgrading where you keep digging deeper without stopping.

What players say
Players praise it as a cheap, chill incremental game, but note the short 3-4 hour run and early access rough edges. A student project with rapid updates, it works well as a background idle game.
