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

You watch your ship drift through space, collecting energy while deciding which cosmic objects to destroy for resources.

What players say

Players describe a very simple idle game with only three upgrades and a short runtime of around 25 hours. The pixel art and music are praised, and the small sidebar window works well for passive play. Some find it too shallow and not worth recommending.
